Read to Play better

We can often feel alone on the journey to greatness. When we are working really hard and challenges come up… it can feel like this is US against the world. When we are waking up extra early, or working out extra hard or thinking a little more optimistic or becoming obsessed with our craft… this isn’t normal in our society so it can feel like we are the ones doing something wrong. Remember we can always lean on the greats of the past through books and reading.

“If you haven’t read hundreds of books, your are functionally illiterate, and you will become incompetent, because your personal experiences alone aren’t broad enough to sustain you.” -Jim Mattis

Now this quote from former Marine Jim Mattis is intentionally intense but the wisdom is true. Reading is a gift becasue we can learn from so many other great leaders and thinkers… and to not read is wasting a lot of your potential because you have only your own experiences to draw from…
