Your Success Bookshelf
Below is a list of books that I have read which have either contributed to my posts or my life.
I highly recommend that reading become an important part of your life, if it isn’t already.
You are not reading for entertainment. This is reading to build the YOU that is required to take you to the next level.
“Do” the books, don’t just read them.
Take notes on the important themes of the books that you read so you can quickly and easily revisit them and consolidate what you are learning. Then implement what you have learned.
When searching for books I would do an internet search for “top ten books on goal setting”, look through 4 or 5 sites that have ranked the books and look for those that appear high up in most of the lists.
Important note: I do not receive commissions on the purchase of these books.
The books in The Essentials list are, in my opinion, essential reading. At a MINIMUM read those books. They can change your thinking and take you a long way to achieving the life you want.
