Constructing Your Personal Library

Wisdom in the words of successful men and women throughout history can be found in books. You are who you spend time with, and you are what you read. There’s nothing wrong with reading magazines for entertainment, but wisdom is generally found in nonfiction books or fiction with a specific point or purpose.
Oftentimes, we “accidentally” get conditioned into reading only nonfiction books that are related to our primary field of interest (i.e., what we do for a living). Sometimes it’s useful to explore subjects that seem to
have nothing to do with your occupational endeavors and let your mind make its own connections.
For example, perhaps you’ve always been interested in studying creativity, painting, aquatic life, theoretical biology, quantum mechanics, sewing, basket weaving, gardening, personal finances, branding, real estate,
architecture, leadership, sales, or consciousness research. Any topic can prove useful if you’re open and ready to receive the connections.
In your journal list ten subjects you’ve always been curious about.

2. Within the next twenty-four hours, go online or visit your local bookstore or library to pick up a few titles that spark your interest.
