Today is a new feature I’ll run on some Saturdays – not all of them, but it is a day where I can post things on the personal and human side of life just sometimes. Here’s a piece where I went through my most highlighted books, I use a tool called Readwise that helps me chat with my highlights and look at them as well, and I went through those to share what those books are and my recommendations on who might find them useful.
These are eleven books for your consideration, and many of them are timeless. I fully expect some of them won’t be your cup of tea. That is ok. But when something is a book I’ve read multiple times, it stands out and might can help you.
I do want to point out that the books I share on deciding when to say no and how to prioritize and have purpose are some I wished I had read earlier. There’s a power in knowing your purpose. There’s a power in saying no. Not because you want to be a contrarian but every yes is a no to something that might be better. So you have to choose your yeses and your no’s can help you say yes to some really great things.
I hope you enjoy Significant Saturday and know that you matter, you are significant, and to take a moment to feed your soul with books and resources for the spiritual side of life as well as helping you have a more peaceful life because of the order and success in your classroom.
“You are significant, not because of what you produce, but just because of who you are.”
