SUMMERTIME, POSITIVE INFLUENCES

Summertime is here and we're taking a break from the blog.  There may be the occasional post throughout the summer, so check back once in a while if you like.  Otherwise, there will be no weekly email reminder, no weekly blog post until September.  Its important to re-charge the batteries and I hope to come back in the Fall and deliver more value.  

In the meantime I wish you a beautiful and relaxing summer!  I leave you with one of my favourites quotes/concepts.
It has been said that...

          The 3 things most likely to have a positive influence in your life are:
               - the people you meet
               - the places you go
               - the books you read

I've certainly found that to be true in my life.  I hope this summer will feature some positive influences in your life.  Here are a few recommendations for work/life issues that might be interesting...

1. The $100 Start-Up - Chris Guillebeau
2. The 80/20 Principle - Richard Koch
3. The 4-Hour Work Week - Tim Ferris
4. The E-Myth - Michael Gerber
5. The War of Art - Stephen Pressfield
6. Start With Why - Simon Sinek
7. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen R. Covey
8. Small Is The New Big - Seth Godin
9. Worth Every Penny - Sarah Petty & Erin Verbeek
10. Smart Cuts - Shane Snow
11. The Art of Non-Conformity - Chris Guillebeau 

While you and I may not agree with all the content in these books 100%, like anything, you pick out the parts that relate to you and apply them to your situation.  Hopefully you find some nuggets this summer :)
