The Power of Coincidence: How Life Shows Us What We Need to Know by David Richo
You miss your plane by five minutes, but on the next flight you find a book in the seat pocket that ends up changing your life. You order a red dress, but a black one arrives. Just as you're about to send it back, the phone rings and you learn that your aunt has died. Meaningful coincidences and surprising connections occur all the time, explains psychologist David Richo, yet we often ignore them, failing to appreciate how they can guide us, warn us, and confirm us on our life's path.
Drawing on Jung's concept of synchronicity - and combining insights from psychology, religion, and poetry - THE POWER OF COINCIDENCE explores how meaningful coincidences operate in our daily lives, in dreams, in relationships, and in our creative endeavors.

What Do You Say After You Say Hello? by Eric Berne
What Do You Say After You Say Hello? explains what makes the winners win, the losers lose, and the in-betweens so boring...In it, Dr Eric Berne reveals how everyone's life follows a predetermined script - a script they compose for themselves during early childhood. The script may be a sad one, it may be a successful one; it decides how a person will relate to his colleagues, what sort of person he will marry, how many children he will have, and even what sort of bed he will die in...What Do You Say After You Say Hello? demonstrates how each life script gets written, how it works and, more important, how anyone can improvise or change his script to make a happy ending..
