Must-Read Personal and Professional Books for 2019 + 3 of My All Time Favorites
Must-Read personal and professional Books for 2019
+ 3 of My All Time Favorites
February 4, 2019
I remember a time when the only thing I would read was a Nicholas Sparks book - no joke.
Not to mention the only time I would even pick up said Nicholas Sparks book was on vacation.
I had convinced myself I didn’t have time to read or didn’t need to read (yes, I understand how ridiculous that sounds).
When I dove head first into entrepreneurship I became consumed with personal development, all my entrepreneurs know this feeling, and I became obsessed with learning as much as I could.
It wasn’t until I started seeing results from what I was reading that I realized this is an essential part of growing. Now I make it a priority to read weekly, both a mix of personal development and professional development books.
As we set out on our year-long (heck, maybe longer) journey of full-time travel I’m gearing up to load my Kindle with must reads.
Today, I’m sharing what’s on my reading list for 2019 + some of my personal favorites that I find myself re-reading or quoting on the regular.
MY PERSONAL FAVORITES
Anything Brene Brown, but seriously I’m not even kidding! Some of my personal favorites are Daring Greatly and Braving the Wilderness. If you struggle with perfectionism she is your girl!
The Universe Has Your Back by Gabby Bernstein. Struggle with trusting? I get that and this book changed so much for me in terms of leaning fully into my goals and trusting the process, even if I didn’t always understand it.
Girl Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis. I’m really hoping you have heard of this book, I mean how could you not, it took the world by storm and for good reason. It’s an amazing book and so beautifully told, I highly recommend!
MUST-READS FOR 2019
Clockwork by Mike Michalowicz
I’m halfway through this book and it is blowing my mind. If you’re looking for strategic ways to grow your business without working more this is a must read.
The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg
I’m obsessed with creating habits in 2019 and making sure that every single day I’m taking action to get me towards my goal and living a more intentional life. I’ve heard amazing things about this book.
High Performance Habits by Brendan Burchard
Speaking of habits, this book by Brendan Burchard has been a must-read for a while, but this year I’m truly diving into the idea of high performance and studying more of the psychology behind what makes people successful.
The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy
This book dives into what makes people truly successful! Did I mention it is a complete system? Sign this girl up.
Primal Branding by Patrick Hanlon
Branding is my jam, so I’m always excited to learn more not just about branding, but WHY people buy.
Michelle Obama DUH!
