Read “The Go Giver”

It’s not often that I read a book start to finish in 2 days, or continue to think about it afterwards. That was the case with “The Go Giver”, a little story about a powerful business idea. It’s very easy reading, and really forces you to look at yourself closely. Do you have an abundance mentality? The book teaches that changing your focus from “getting” to “giving” will yield surprising results.

I’ve heard this said in other ways, i.e. if you help enough people get what they want, you’ll get what you want. And if you look at some of the most successful people in business, you’ll see that it wasn’t money motivating them, it was their passion that was driving them.

I did a call a couple days ago where I discussed the role of passion in deciding what niche to pursue. It certainly does make it easier to succeed, don’t you think? I’d love to hear from some of our moms out there on how you decided which niche to pursue online and why it was the perfect (or not so perfect) topic for you!

I think you’ll enjoy the book…I bought it from Amazon.com, it’s by Bob Burg and John David Mann.
