For an introvert-shy-engineer type like myself it was an education and required learning to be more comfortable operating well out of my shell.There are real risks of self managing,  and these are getting more pronounced, especially in some "blue" areas where the definition of discrimination and what constitutes 'fair housing practices' is evolving and getting more complex, subtle, and subjective.  

I've listened to many books on Audible, like The Total Money Makeover, Rich Dad Poor Dad, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, How To Win Friends And Influence People, and others.I joined the Marines right out of high school and served for 8 years.

Kiyosaki- obviously his Rich Dad, Poor Dad is monumental for getting your mindset right.The Richest Man in Babylon by George Clayson is a book I'll read to my kids as a bedtime story (seriously).The Magnolia Story by Chip and Joanna Gaines - this book is packed full of inspiration that will change your outlook on overcoming failures and hardships.The Miracle Morning by the one and only Hal Elrod.The E-Myth revisited by Michael Gerber.So Good They Can't Ignore You by Cal Newport.And last but not least, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*** by Mark Manson - this one will be a book I read and re-read for the rest of my life.
