I hadn't even heard about The Comfort Trap. I'll have to head out to the bookstore shortly. What I liked most about this post, though, was your emphasis on action. I've read many books this year and enjoyed many of them. But I've come to realize (again) that acting on what I learn is the most important part of learning (as your quote at the top so aptly puts it). Many of the books I would otherwise consider best, don't really inspire much from my side. Other books that perhaps aren't as amazing on the info side have inspired me to live differently. So perhaps this will be my new year resolution: to measure education, particularly books and blog, by their ability to inspire action on my part.
