DREAMS X GOALS X LEARNING X PLANS X ACTION = SUCCESS
Whether you learn by doing, reading, listening, or just living life, learning is an essential part of the formula for life success.
Once you write down your goals, you have to start doing the learning. Because without the learning, you can't do the planning or the action, which will stunt your growth.
In coaching, my clients learn during their sessions, but in between sessions, they also read or listen to books, listen to podcasts, meet with other business owners, attend workshops and conferences, and more - sharpening their skills to plan and execute and becoming who they need to be to have what they want to have.
Business owners often ask me what books I can recommend to learn more about various aspects of business. I love getting asked this question because, as Brad Sugars, founder of ActionCOACH says, you've got to "learn before you earn."
I put together this list of some of my favorites I read or re-read in 2022 by subject area.
No matter where you are in your business journey, this list of classics mixed with newer literature will give you lots of ideas you can implement in your business and personal life.

I just finished High Performance Habits. Thank you for the hard copy-- even though I listened to it on YouTube, I now have the book as a reference point. I want to implement his system of mastery for my students. I also listened to chapter 4 of Traction and am starting chapter 7. Lots of valuable information I will use when hiring admin #2.
