Beach Reads!!
One of the great things about attending Kenneth Anderson (he, him, his) ‘First Wednesday’ Professional Development Seminars, is you always walk away with a good book suggestion to add to your TBR list. 212 The Extra Degree was on of the books introduced in one of his seminars.
I’ve been sitting on this one for awhile but, 212 The Extra Degree was the push and motivation I need in this second half of the year. The book details how that one little change that extra push can make all the difference in the outcome of your situation. “Raising the temperature of water by one extra degree means the difference between something that is simply very hot and something that generates enough force to power a machine…..” At 211 degrees water is hot. At 212 degrees it boils. Boiling water produces steam. That steam can fuel and power a locomotive. The book gives some great examples of just what a little extra effort can do and the life changing effects it has.
Believe Bigger is another one I’ve had for a minute. I started reading it and got busy and forgot about it. So a week at the beach was the perfect opportunity to pick it up again. I’m half way done but so far it’s a great read with scriptural references, faith based practical solutions to finding yourself and YOUR unique gifts. Marshawn shares her personal experiences of loosing or maybe I should say surrendering it all and trusting God to lead her to her true calling. Can’t wait to finish this read because I’m ready to believe bigger.
Reality returns on Monday when I go back to work. But I am looking forward to coming back refreshed, refocused and motivated.
Vacay over 🏖️ ✌🏽
