Getting started on the personal development path

What if you devote the first hour of the day to yourself, intentionally trying to improve an aspect of your life that you've been putting off for too long?

You can do that by reading, thinking, writing, meditating even. The Miracle Morning book can show you what and how to do it. Personally, the life SAVERS exercise is something I've stuck with for years now. Here are some other books that may be of interest to you.

Oh, and btw, if you spend half of that 1-hour on reading, you'll end up reading 30 books per year (and here's the math that proves it).


⚠️ In this new "Daily Thoughts" series, I'm just scratching my own itch. For too long now I've been reading and consuming. Not that there's something inherently wrong with that, but if one doesn't offset that with his own producing, one often falls into the trap of staying a consumer. If you think you know something, or want to learn something about yourself, try to explain it 'on paper'.

Personally, I think best 'on paper', and it's been a while since a wrote a post. So, I'll start small (and build up a habit of daily writing again) by sharing a thought daily. I'll use this as a retrospective a year from now.

Dear readers, feel free to chime in with your thoughts on my thoughts (so Meta; which is popular in its own right these days).
