    I've also set myself a goal of a book a week for this year...did the same last year but fell short by about 20 books. What is it they say...shoot for the stars and if you only hit the moon you still will have got a long way

    Anywhhoooo...heres the first few on the list

    Excuses Begone - Wayne Dyer
    Dynamic Laws of Prosperity - Catherine Ponder
    Blink - Malcolm Gladwell
    Referral Engine - John Jantsch

    They should see me through January...unless something else bright and shiny pops up and shouts "read me" first.

    Crush It - Gary Vaynerchuck.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhqZ0RU95d4 is what got me interested in him.

    I'm sure more as I go, but don't have the time for the library.

    Hey Megan,

    "The 10X Rule" looks pretty interesting - I never heard of it. Just put it in my wish list and downloaded the first chapter.

    Right now, the only book I know I want is "Mastery" by George Leonard.
    Other than that, for the first time, I'm planning to invest into business coaches/consultants and/or mentor as compared to just book and events. I'm almost tired of reading, but not seeing enough change. We'll see if this approach helps.

    - A

    Jackie -Awesome job with the reading last time around. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on Referral Engine. I have the book and need to read that sometime also.

    I haven't heard of Encouragement Changes Everything - by John Maxwell and I love him - so I'll add that to my list for sure.

    Sherlock Holmes Hound of Baskervilles. It is the only SH story that I haven't read. presently have no other books that I am planning to read this year but will come across many that I will like to read.

    I'm a big reader and I use the public library for the books I read (with rare exception). Believe me I have bought plenty of books from Amazon, Borders and B&N not to mention used bookstores over the years but now I'm at a point in my life where I am into reading them once and then turning them back in for someone else to read and not having to own it.

    However I'm not seeing Encouragement Changes Everything in my Library Catalog - may have to check a local used bookstore for that one.

    Currently on my list to read (which is always expanding by the way):
    Thank You Economy by Gary Vanerchuk
    EntreLeadership by Dave Ramsey
    Steve Jobs Bio
    FRY CHRONICLES: AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY Fry, Stephen
    Then again / Diane Keaton.
    Giving 2.0 : transform your giving and our world / Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen.
    The future of us/ Jay Asher & Carolyn Mackler. (It's a YA book about 2 teens that read their FB pages 15 years in the future - FB isn't even invented yet - and how their choices today impact their future - sounds interesting).
