Free shadow work Qs - https://www.clarkkegley.com/shadow-work My Best Journal Program - https://www.mybestjournal.com Over the last 10 years, I've read over 400 books that all claim to change your life. Truth is, 50% you could probably skip because they're marketing tools for the author and will eat 8 hours of your life. 48% had some decent ideas. But then there was the 2%. These 2% books had such a deep impact that never left even after the first read. Those 2% books are sitting right here. And I want to walk you through the 10 books I would definitely recommend you read that'll change your life. I'm going to go over the big idea from each, what phase of your life I would recommend you read it in, who it's for, and how they changed my perspective on achievements, staying present, and how they prevented some expensive mistakes. Beautiful day here in Arizona. Let's go get some fresh air and kick it off with book number one.
