My Top 15 Book Recommendations and 60+ Others Too!
“Will, can you recommend me a good personal development book please?”
I get this question weekly
My usual response to the above question is “what are you trying to achieve or what is your current challenge, so I can ensure I suggest one based on your desire or needs?”
Obviously, I can’t ask you this question.
