FINANCIAL LITERACY & PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT BOOKS

Reading books without applying the lessons is counterproductive to the very personal development and productivity improvements I strive for. Just reading does not actually change anything: the real results come from daily application of the lessons and strategies. Rather than reading more books, I will focus on applying what I have learned in the books I have already read. The Buddhists are right, ‘to know, and not to use, is not yet to know’.
