One of the things I’ve grown to understand is that becoming the best version of yourself isn’t just a overnight, one time transformation. It’s a journey. It’s a life long personal development journey.
Part of that journey is being really present and practicing self awareness. Getting to know yourself inside and out is a huge part of the personal development process. It will help you find a sense of true and lasting inner peace, bring clarity and purpose to your life, help you build better relationships, the list of benefits goes on and on.
So, if you are looking to level up your life and make some personal changes for the better, one of the first habits you should adopt is reading. I am an avid reader and constantly looking for new books to dive into. Each time I read a new, I feel an awakening in my mind. New concepts, new ideas, new ways of looking at things. Reading can help to expand your mind.
I also am a big fan of re-reading. Sometimes, I read a book and I may love it. A few years later, I may pick it up and read it again and get a completely different, elevated experience from that book. It’s always exciting to see how much you have grown and how much more insight you might be able to glean from a book that you just weren’t ready to receive before.
Because I love to read so much, you can see my bookstore here, I thought I would share 5 books that I have read that I know will help you level up your life. In addition, I’m sharing 5 books that are on my list and I can’t wait to read this year. Let’s get into it…
