What books have made an impact on your life?

Reading books had been a struggle for me in the past. I had no drive to do so and simply didn’t enjoy it. It would take me a whole year to complete one book with tremendous difficulty.

Last year, something shifted! I was desperately searching for growth in different areas of my life and I knew I could experience that through reading.

Here’s what helped;

• I had to be honest with myself. This is one of the best ways to start personal growth.
• Not every book is worth my time, so I needed to be specific when choosing books. Asked for recommendations and previewed.
• Decided on my purpose and that became my motivation to read.
• Highlighted what stood out in the book and took notes.
• Most importantly, TOOK ACTION!

In my opinion, a book is as good as how you can implement the gems into your personal life, for it to be impactful.
