At Alex Shalman . com - Practical Personal Development the Sunday morning tradition is me posting links, to my favorite articles for the week, from OTHER blogs. I feel like this is a good way to bring attention to quality writing that my readers might not get a chance to see otherwise.

For this week my favorite articles are:

Alvin Soon of Life Coaches Blog is taking the time to just be. He’s going a weekend retreat to just think for a bit. This is something I’m considering doing in the weeks to come, by renting a log cabin in the Catskill mountains for a weekend. Just me, nature, and a moleskin.

Erin Doland of Unclutterer tells us about his little cleaning and organizing quirks. He’s also made me realize why my room is always a bit cleaner around midterms and finals. It’s a way to procrastinate! Shame on me

Tim Ferris the author of 4HWW always has a ton of innovative ideas. This time he talks about how he test-drives friends. He has basically developed a series of scenarios in which he can test the character of newly acquired friends, to insure that they meet his standards for the people he likes to surround himself with.

Inspire21 gives us 5 lessons on how to treat others. I like.

Jamin Gray at Wondr gives us 5 simple tricks to help you win any argument. I think this is a good starting point, but could be expanded further.

Let me know what you think about the articles above.
