Best Ways to read your reading list in 2024
Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear (2018)
“Your habits shape your identity, and your identity shapes your habits.”
“Changes that seem small and unimportant at first will compound and turn into remarkable results if youre willing to stick with them for years.”
“Be the designer of your world and not merely the consumer of it.”
Time Magic by Melissa Ambrosini and Nick Broadhurst
Instead of sharing quotes for this one, I’m sharing some of the unexpected lessons Melissa learned while writing Time Magic.
How we spend our days is how we spend our lives.
Most of us could be more intentional with our time.
Patience is crucial to creativity.
You Are a Badass at Making Money: Master the Mindset of Wealth by Jen Sincero
“Change your mind, change your life.”
“Always stay attached to your Why so when things get tough you keep going.”
“Where you choose to place your attention dictates the reality you get to participate in. Choose to focus on the good instead of spending your one and only life stewing on the suckery.”
“Today I intend to do one thing that scares the crap out of me.”
Life Loves You: 7 Spiritual Practices to Heal Your Life by Louise Hay
“Life doesn’t judge us, but we judge ourselves. Life doesn’t criticize us, but we criticize ourselves. Life doesn’t abandon us, but we often abandon ourselves.”
“Love is the miracle cure,” she says, “And when you are willing to love yourself more, every area of your life works out better.”
“Knowing that life loves you is the secret to loving yourself and to living a life you love.”
Show Your Work by Austin Kleon
Share what you love, and the people who love the same things will find you.
You find time the same place you find spare change: in the nooks and crannies.
Your work is something you do, not who you are.
How to Not Die Alone by Logan Ury
“Great relationships are created, not discovered.”
“The magic of a relationship doesn’t depend on a serendipitous or cinematic meeting. The magic lies in the fact that two strangers come together and create a life. It’s not important where or how they met.”
How are you, really?: Living Your Truth One Answer at a Time by Jenna Kutcher
“But so many of us spend our days busy and distracted, dripping with kids, work, or responsibilities”
Recognize that happiness should not and will not always be your final destination. Each feeling is teaching us something, telling us about who we are right now
“I hope we all learn how to accept change as a process of being alive.”
“It’s no surprise we’re exhausted. Before we’re even fully awake, we start scrolling through everyone else’s opinions and ideas and solutions—our news feeds, our Facebook page, our Instagram feeds.”
Unstoppable Success by Jessica Williamson
If you were looking for a sign to shake things up and step into that person capable of wild success (more than you already have) then – THIS IS IT!
“Whatever your goals are right now, dream a LOT bigger. If this excites you, GREAT! If it scares you, EVEN BETTER!”
She’s on the Money: The award-winning #1 finance bestseller: Take charge of your financial future by Victoria Devine
Build your future wealth, get out of debt and upskill your money habits chapter-by-chapter with She’s On The Money.
From investments to mortgages, Victoria’s pages cut through the patriarchal gates towards financial freedom, handing you the keys you need to live the life you want – now and in the future.
The 4-Hour Work Week: Escape the 9-5, Live Anywhere and Join the New Rich
“Doing less is the path of the productive.”- Focus on doing the right things.
“Someday” is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro and con lists are just as bad. If it’s important to you and you want to do it “eventually,” just do it and correct course along the way.”
Most people fail not because they lack the skills or aptitude to reach their goal, but because they simply do not have the persistence to keep going.
