I have had a lot of conversations with very talented people that seem lost in this new economic reality. Understandably many are upset about their respective employment situations; however, as a whole they seem to be forgetting what has made them great. Here are some recommended reads for some positive \u201cmojo\u201d:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Alchemist<\/a>\u00a0by Paulo Coelho
I first borrowed a copy of the Alchemist in 1996 while backpacking in Australia and devoured it in a single day. I hated to return it. Since then I have recommended the book countless times and given away many copies as gifts. It is worth checking out\u00a0Coelho\u2019s blog<\/a>\u00a0where he posts daily and even links to pirated copies of his work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Radical Leap: A Personal Lesson in Extreme Leadership<\/a> by Steve Farber
This is a great short read about leadership. First read in 2004, I have taken the time to re-read it about once per year and see how I measure up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Magic Lamp: Goal Setting for People Who Hate Setting Goals<\/a> by Keith Ellis
I recently came across this book. Would recommend. It is authentic and can help you get you from A to B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hang in there and read on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
