How’s your June looking so far? Are you finding time for yourself? I know what it’s like to have three kids out of school for three months and keeping your business flowing. I believe it’s all in the planning and being organized.

One of the most important areas of your life is taking some time for you, even if it’s only 20 minutes, to increase your professional development or P.D.

Today, I want to share with you my top ten business books. These are books I refer to over and over again. They are books that helped me gain insight, have mind shifts and played a crucial role in building my million-dollar LEAP group coachingteam. I believe leaders are readers and information can change your life. The concepts from many of these books are what I teach in my L.E.A.P. Group Coaching program.

Here’s my recommendations for you to begin working on your own professional development.

1. Think & Grow Rich, By Napoleon Hill. NO MATTER where you are in your business, this little book will teach you the principles of success. I refer to his 13 principles of success almost every month.

2. Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, by T. Harv Ecker. My team learned how to make money and save money, in a millionaire focus group using this book. Creating focus groups in your team helps build confidence and raises your team sales volume.

3. The No B.S. Time Management for Entrepreneurs, by Dan Kennedy. Time management is a universal challenge. In this book you learn how to maximize your time and discipline yourself to be more productive. It fits in with the Time Management system I introduce to all my coaching clients.

I want you to make some time this summer to increase your professional development or P.D. Encourage your team to spend 20 minutes a day reading something that enhances their business and their life.

Just 20 minutes a day. Can you do it?
