Books I read 2022-2023. And recommends 🫶

2024/7/16 Edited to

... Read moreIn the literary journey of 2022-2023, I explored several impactful reads that shaped my thoughts and beliefs. Among these, 'The Power of Self-Discipline' by Brian Tracy emphasizes the necessity of self-control and perseverance in achieving personal goals. Another notable book is 'Learning How to Learn' by Barbara Oakley, PhD, which provides strategies to enhance your learning process. 'Running on Empty' by Jonice Webb, PhD, dives into emotional neglect and its impact on personal development, while Matthew Dicks' 'Storyworthy' enlightens readers on the art of storytelling. These selections not only offer personal insights but also encourage readers to engage in discussions about their own experiences and interpretations. Consider joining our reading community to exchange ideas on these thought-provoking titles and more!
