Do You Know Your Own Values?

I was talking via e-mail to Ali from The Office Diet who was kind enough to edit my new e-book ‘Know Yourself – Change Yourself’ the other day. She’d read the book, which I thought was a fantastic idea for an editor, and took issue with a point I made. I suggested that there are no right or wrong…
