75 Smartest Books

As many of you know, I am a dedicated reader, and normally have two or three books "on read" at any time. I love to read and the phrase "So many books, so little time" definitely applies to me!

I also love to read magazines and noted the Fortune magazine article "the 75 Smartest Books" (about management). I decided my new goal will be to read those 75 books!

For several years I have made a point of spending at least 15 minutes reading something I may not otherwise read. At 15 minutes per day it may take a while!

Currently I am reading/studying Steven Covey's "The 8th Habit" and I find it fascinating. I am trying to read it slowly so I incorporate the principles!

However, I still do a lot of "junk" leisure reading, which I also greatly enjoy. That is one reason I started the "15 minute" reading program, so I would spend at least 15 minutes per day in reading for self or professional improvement!
