Top Reads

Our top 5 must reads for anyone looking to get started in entrepreneurship. This list might seem a tad odd at first, but each book is going to teach you something invaluable about yourself, that will help prepare you for world domination.

The inner game of Tennis

Spoiler alert, it's not as much about tennis as it is about learning how to stay present and focused in the moment. In sport, and in business, we can get stuck or fixated on a specific event, that causes things to spiral out of control. This book teaches you why this happens, and how you can learn to stay composed at all times.

The One Thing

Discover your most important goal and learn how you can use your time productively to get there. Live your life with priority, purpose and productivity without sending other aspects of life out of balance. This is how you can perform the kind of focused work that leads to great success.

The Coaching Habit

This might be the simplest thing we can do to build stronger relationships with others, and somehow, the ability is in such low supply these days, that people are shocked when it finally happens to them.

Key Person of Influence

You might be starting something thinking if you build it, they will come. Sorry to break it to you, you're going to have to do some other things too. One of these things will involve being in the public eye to build awareness and authority.

Daring Greatly

We tend to believe that we need to look or act a certain way in order to be seen as professional and successful. But, when we embrace our vulnerability and imperfection only then can we attract and connect with people in meaningful ways.

Education

You're taking the leap into entrepreneurship and that's awesome.
One of the biggest factors in the future success of your business will be your ability to build expertise quickly.

Gear

In many cases, our ability to succeed at business hinges on our capacity to grab and keep peoples attention. It's a huge part of building credibility and authority. One of the only ways to kind of fast track this, is to leverage technology to build high end production value. Clean video & photography, great lighting, and crisp audio make a serious impact.
