My 2023 Reading List
2023: A Year Of Progress
After finding out that there is life after rock bottom, but only if I take 100% responsibility for everything in my life and do the work to design my future, well, I did just that, I got to work. 2022 was all about change. Changing my mindset, changing my habits, changing what I ate, changing how I looked at myself and the world. 2023 is all about making progress. And that includes with reading. Although my pace has slowed since I blew out of the gates with nearly 130 books in 2022, I still consider reading daily an essential part of my life- and it always will be. Now I just hone in more on the topics on want to focus on and areas I want to improve.
Although completely accidental, I like my method. If you lost touch with reading, I recommend going all-in and reading as many books as possible – this constant contact with some of the greatest minds to ever live, you fundamentally change who you are and how you see the world. After you do that, you can focus in on slowly devouring books at a pace that feels comfortable and focus in on topic you now know that you enjoy learning about. Whatever method you choose, start reading!
