Books

I try to read a book-a-month. Or twelve books a year. I know …brag much? Right? So multiply that by …how old am I? 50? And I’ve been reading self-help and non-fiction books for 25 years.

25 years X 12 books/yr = like, um, 300+ books.

And sadly, I remember a few really good ones, but don’t always remember what I liked about them. People who write these books, and authors on Podcasts, they always remember and cite books they loved. Not me. I just say things like, “oh, I really liked 4-Hour Work Week and loved the book So Good They Can’t Ignore You or Someday is Today,” and if you press me on what I liked, I can’t really put my finger on it.

Soooooooo, I’m 50-years-old and I’m going old school …I’m gonna start doing Book Reports. For me …and maybe for you. Well, for my “fans” (yes, I have some loyal readers).

And my Book Report Project starts with Reasons Not to Worry. Great book. Click below to learn why.
