Reading: Personal Professional and Positive The 30 Day Challenge by Danyelle Little & Telie Woods
One of my goals for the new year is to read more books that are focused on personal growth and development. This is my first book and I wanted to share some of the key points I learned after reading. The best part of the book are the key areas and how they are divided into specific areas of focus. Each chapter provides real-life examples, key action items, and motivational quotes. I plan to incorporate the valuable action items to assist me with living a more positive and fulfilling life both personally and professionally.
