1. The Desire Map by Danielle LaPorte
This book is mentioned A LOT by Mary in our office and during the #9toSIMPLIFY challenge.
Whether you’re a well established business owner or just starting out in your career, this book takes you back to the basics so many of us don’t even know we should have covered.
The Desire Map is a holistic approach to life planning that uses your core desired feelings as the guidance system for your goal setting. La-Porte gives you the tools to identify the the way you want to feel and teaches you how to turn these desired feelings into practical goals.
Want to be more focused, happier, authentic, empowered and successful? This book is a great starting point!
2. The Lean Startup by Eric Ries
A great one for those of you who want to give your business skills a boost. The Lean Startup will help you make better and faster business decisions.
It’s about learning what your customers really want which isn’t always as obvious as you might think. Learn why you should be testing your vision continuously, adapting and adjusting before it’s too late.
