What We're reading in September

Gold Standard
business & Leadership development

I learned about this book from a podcast which is both a great way to be mentored in business from some great minds without paying millions of dollars.

In listening to one of my mentors this past week, I came across the book that I decided must be my next read since this is an area of my marketing I'm working on at this time. I think this will be helpful for both entrepreneurs and anyone thinking about their own personal brand, and face it, whether we want one or not, we all have a personal brand of sorts.

September's read is: Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message So Customers Will Listen - Donald Miller

I hope you’ll join me in reading this and maybe on the call this month, we can practice with each other. You in?

Customer Reviews

I wish I could have read this book years ago to avoid many of the mistakes I have made -- and thus not achieved my goals. This book is full of logical and practical tips for goal setting--and I definitely see how they could be actionable. - Dorene

The FlipSide of Failure had me continuously thinking
about many of the goals I had started, the ambitions I have had at various points of my life, and helped me understand why I may not have accomplished them. The format of the book felt like a supportive friend who truly believed in my ability to accomplish anything. The missions and assignments suggested are all relevant and truly fill the gaps where I may have lost steam in my goals previously. I would highly recommend the FlipSide of Failure for anyone who has hit a bump or stumpled in achieving their goals in the past and looking for a boost in the right direction. - Jessica
--------------------
A straightforward and concise recipe for creating a successful goal-setting - and achieving - system by an experienced mentor and coach. Elizabeth has created a very simple and actionable approach to what can be a daunting task. There are a myriad of goal-setting books and gurus out there that offer bloated and complicated systems, but the author here cuts through all the BS and not only breaks it down into doable steps, but also gives you hope that your goals are very much achievable with the right mindset and focus.
I particularly like how it isn't written as a lecture, but more like you're having a conversation with the author. A very no-nonsense approach in a very direct and friendly manner.
Even if you've read 100 goal-setting books before, add this one to your shelf. You'll be glad you did! - David

With a title like this, how could I not choose this book?

For September I chose the title, Maybe it’s You: Cut the crap, Face Your Fears, Love Your Life. Lauren Zander.

I'm excited to delve into this book and see what this author has to teach about really getting to the deep truth inside us all. From reading the description of this book I am curious to see if there are any "layers of the onion" I'm ready to peel at this time and what comes up for me throughout this read.

If you're as intrigued as I am, I hope you'll join me with this month's book and of course, there is always the option for a discussion at the end of the month.

Please join me for the online video call being held on Tuesday, September 24, 2019 at 8pm Eastern to share your thoughts and take-aways from the book on zoom here.
