Short Version

1. Read this.

2. Read this.

Long Version

1. Read this book by Michael Bungay Stanier entitled “Do More Great Work”. At first I thought this book was going to be pretty shallow and very formulaic. However, I was proven wrong after getting through the first two chapters. Using various maps, Stanier walks the reader through exercises that allows the one to identify what great work is for him or her, and then how to make that work happen. Pretty insightful for me.

2. Read this ebook from Seth Godin. It’s an addendum to Linchpin (which if you haven’t read it, go read it right now), featuring people who inspired Seth throughout the years. A good, quick read.
