“A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because someone else thought they could” -Zig Ziglar Believe in the power of helping other people!

I started a challenge for myself at the beginning of 2024. I wanted to find a way to help myself grow daily, but also share that knowledge with others who need it. (Honestly, who has time to really read books these days?) I bought a Blinkist Subscription last year during their Black Friday Sale, they have over 6,500 very well written Book Summaries. I love books, but when I see a book I have no interest in, I'm happy because that means I don't have to shell out money to buy yet another book. It can get expensive 😅 But we don't need to do that here. I'm able to curate my own book summary library within Blinkist and share any book summary you want with you guys for free. Feel Free to join the discussion each day and keep climbing that Leaderboard! Also the more you Collaborate and Network, the bigger impact you'll have with others and the more you'll feel better about yourself as you make a habit for growth. So TLDR: 1. Search the Full Summary Book Archive Here 2. Join our Daily Newsletter if you want to get our new Book Selection everyday by Email 3. Comment on this post any of your Book Recommendations and I'll put them in our Library Archive I can't wait to hear your Book Recommendations! (I sorta live for them)

In "The Practice" by Seth Godin, he talks about Optimizing your chance of achieving Greatness. We all have a chance at Greatness, but why do only so few achieve it? Here's the excerpt from the Chapter Summary: "Some creatives find fulfillment simply in shipping their work to a modest audience. Others have their eye on a bigger prize: greatness. They don’t just want to perform well; they want to be at the pinnacle of their field. What propels certain creatives to that pinnacle? Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need to be a uniquely gifted genius to reach the upper echelons of creative excellence. With commitment and a bit of strategy, you can work your way to the very top. The key message is: You can optimize your chances of achieving greatness. Greatness is never guaranteed. But if you’re striving for creative greatness, à la pianist Glenn Gould or contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama, there are some techniques that might help you along your way. First of all, find your cohort. In creativity, context is crucial. Would Robert Zimmerman have metamorphosed into Bob Dylan if he’d never left Minnesota for the vibrant folk scene of Greenwich Village in the 1950s? Maybe – but maybe not. Dig deep on any of your artistic idols, and you’ll probably find they didn’t work in isolation. From Renaissance Florence to the Algonquin Round Table, creatives congregate. And when they do, they spur each other on to produce greater, more groundbreaking work. So set out to find your cohort. Second, commit to your superpower skill. That’s the thing you do best, the thing that makes you stand out in a crowded market. Focusing on your superpower skill might mean neglecting other parts of your work. And that’s fine. In fact, it shows you’re on the right track. Think of FedEx, the global shipping powerhouse. Would you send a priceless oil painting cross-country with FedEx? Probably not. Because FedEx’s superpower is their speed, they leave ultra-careful handling to their competitors. So, don’t try and corner the whole market. Commit to painting amazing portraits if that’s your superpower, and leave landscapes to others. It’s all about finding your niche and excelling there.
