Let's make reading fun again. I used to read books all the time! I guess that is one of the reasons my daughter Nicole is such a huge book nerd. Her interest in books inspired this list based on reviews she posted on her YouTube channel and on Instagram. She really knows how to turn a good book into a good time, be sure to watch all the vids if you want to see how much books can make you smile. You'll find business related books but also productivity and seIf-improvement. Btw - I s...Audible.  Note: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases #ad

My grandson Joseph is pretty amazing isn't he?
NICOLE PURVY on Instagram: "Let me help u to decide what to read next. And so… Join me for 30 days of business book recaps and reviews. That don’t mean imma do a new video every day. But within these 30 days imma talk about biz books… FYI, I hated that I had to talk about “breaking the habit of being yourself” in 2 seconds. It’s soo much more in this book. Such as… 👑subatomic particles 👑collapsing the wave function 👑heart-mind coherence 👑5 types of brain waves Here are quotes I had highlighted in my kindle app “Most people focus on three things in life: their environment, their bodies, and time. They don’t just focus on those three elements, they think equal to them. But to break the habit of being yourself, you have to think greater than the circumstances of your life, be greater than the feelings that you have memorized in your body, and live in a new line of time.“ “Most people try to create in a state of lack, unworthiness, separation, or some other limited emotion rather than from a state of gratitude, enthusiasm, or wholeness. That’s when the field responds most favorably to you.“ “When we have negative emotions (such as anger and fear), our heart rhythms become erratic and disorganized. In contrast, positive emotions (love and joy, for instance) produce highly ordered, coherent patterns that HeartMath researchers refer to as heart coherence.“ “Einstein said that no problem could be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” “coherence or what is also called synchrony, the state when the brain is working in harmony.” Sidenote: JD does NOT have an injury on his chin…the bandaid just NEEDED to be there 🙄 He insisted on sitting here while I recorded this.😩😩😩 And this is what happens on a day off from school.🙄 Also yall see that line of paper over there the left? Even tho we have all the toys and tracks, we HAD to spend an hour making a track out of tape,3x5 cards, and a marker. Guess who did most of the work. 😩 Jk I love it. He’s the funniest kid ever. #businessbooks #productivityhacks #productivitytips #productivitycoach #booklover #booknerd #productivitylifestyle #lifestylehacks #lifestylecoach"

Day 2 of an ongoing virtual book binge
NICOLE PURVY on Instagram: "Day 2 of 30 days of biz books “Speed of Trust” by Stephen MR Covey. 👑Fun fact: if the name sound familiar to you, it’s because, the author is the son of the guy who wrote “7 habits of highly effective people”. They have the same name. 👑They are all pastors. Even as a Christian I appreciate how they don’t push Christianity on its readers in their books. It’s all about getting to the money through integrity. 👑Do you think you’ll read this one?. In 2012, It changed everything for me! What book should I review next? Let me know below👇🏽 #businessbooks #productivityhacks #lifestyleguide #softlife #readersgonnaread"

Laurence Fishburne's finest performance! As much as I love Denzel, I always felt he should have been cast in Malcolm in Spike Lee's movie. Listening to this book is almost like my little version of retribution. Also - I originally read this book way ...
