Super saturdays 🙏🏽🌍✨

When I started reading self development books a few years ago I hadn’t picked up a book since high school. 📚
In college it always felt like a chore or gave me horrendous flashbacks of homework and tasks (which I rarely completed 😂)

I remember having a conversation with a guy in a pub in my late teens/early 20s thinking I knew it all because of what I learned in school and with his dry sense of humour he uttered - “You should read more books.” 🤣 Back then as a wee hooligan earning more money than a teenager should I had no concern for wisdom or success principles of a travelled soul - very naive of me I guess! 🙈

In the last few years I’ve probably read/listened to over 50 books, I now have a library in my living room where about 5 years ago those books would have been dvds that got spun on repeat alongside a dominos every weekend 🤣🎥🍕

I love that we have a world of information out there, and successful and influential people share their stories and tips on how to succeed and make them readily available to us. At this age we really have NO EXCUSE not to get ahead, teach ourselves, learn, and succeed on purpose. Guys you can get FREE audiobooks now. YouTube has everything. You can get books on amazon that will change your life for under £10. Some even a fiver like this one below 👌🏽💯

The things I’ve learned in reading books like these have been INVALUABLE, and this is the s**t you don’t learn in schools, colleges or universities. It’s just a stone cold solid fact. If you want to be successful - learn by DOING and FAILING and DOING again. Or better yet, learn from those who have walked the walk you want to walk. 🔥

I wonder how different some of our lives would be if our schools and education system had encouraged us and our kids to read more books on how to be successful, as opposed to grinding on us to go out there get a great and well earned degree or diploma and then fight tooth and nail for an underpaid 9-5 job and expect a successful career while being miserable! 🤷🏽♂️
