Reading List

Because reading is fundamental …

If you’ve ever seen me on camera from my home office you’ll know that my background is a great amount of books. The first question is almost always, “Have you read all of those?”

Yes I have. In my opinion, reading is the only way we can ever learn quick enough to advance from generation to generation. Here is a list of just a few books that have changed my life and helped me advance.
