Don’t just read for the sake of reading

It really doesn’t matter how much information you have.  What does matter is what you do with the information that you do have.  While I am asked several times per day who am I reading.  My answer is always circular.  I’m rather reading someone motivating and inspirational, or re-reading someone who has inspired me to achieve.  I don’t just read a book and put it down, I read it, re-read it, and read it again to take notes.  The fact of the matter is I study the books that I read.  If you want to achieve, act on the information you read, don’t just read it.

Recently I heard Darren Hardy say, “It would be better to read 1 great book 32 times, ” instead of reading 32 books 1 time.

If you need a suggested place to start, here are the books that I’ve studied over the years.  Choose one, study it, and welcome the greatness that the information will help you unlock.
