We all find ourselves stressed and incredibly busy during these crazy times. But are you like me- just needing to take a second to sit and be still?  With all the ruckus going on in the world, it can be hard to focus on the things that you need to maintain becoming a better you, and we certainly don’t want to be skimpy in the self-empowerment area at a time like this!

Statistically speaking, here’s what we need to take into perspective about self- empowerment reading and its effects:

• You’re able to interpret the world (and yourself) more positively
• The people who read more, fear less while taking risks
• 88% of wealthy people claim that they read for self-improvement for up to 30 minutes per day
• You fast track through your limitations
• 85% rich people read two or more self-improvement books per month
• Reading makes you smarter and improves brain power

With that said, kick back and dust off the old books or better yet, check out a few new ones! Here are a few of my new favorites… They’re quick reads that speak in volumes in minutes!
