Description
This week's episode is dedicated to the books we've read this year. We made goals to read more books this year, and we did! Jihae has a goal of 19 for 2019, and Chris has already surpassed that, and Jihae just has 1 more to go.
We apologize in advance for the audio issues. Not sure what happened, but it doesn't sound great, and we are sorry about that! 74 episodes in and we still aren't audio/technical wizards. We are actually replacing the original audio file, so if you listened to it before Friday the 8th of November, then you got the super crummy version of this episode. We are working on all these things!
So, here is Chris' list of books that he read. The asterisk denotes that Jihae also read that book:
Chris' books from 2019:
1- For Men Only- Jeff Feldhaun *
2 Team of Teams- General Stan McChrystal
3- Millionaire Next Door- Thomas J Stanley
4- Everyday millionaire - Chris Hogan
(We mentioned "Thou Shalt Prosper" by Daniel Lapin, a great book we both read last year.)
5- You Can't Make This Up- by Kevin Hart * And one of our FAVORITE books from this year! Worth the listen, as Kevin narrates it on Audible.
6- Tech Wise Family by Andy Crouch * Very good read!
7- 12 rules for life: An Antidote to Chaos by Jordan B Peterson *
8- Mindset by Carol Dweck * Both read this, and it is a MUST-READ in our opinion!
9, 10, 11- 3 Mitch Rapp books by Vince Flynn about an assassin.
"No thank you on any of those books" - Jihae
12- The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fu&$ - by Mark Manson * Really good read!
13- The Great Courses, Art of war by Andrew Wilson
14- Great Courses- CBT
15- Leadership: Gain Confidence to Influence as a Leader Through Communication Skills and Coaching by Nathan Smart
16- The Connected Child by Karen Purvis * Both read this, and it's in the top 5, and is a Must Read for foster and adoptive families (and parents in general).
17- Garbage Bag Suitcase by Shenandoah Chefalo * Great book.
18- Talk like TED by Carmine Gallo * Great book if you want to improve your public speaking.
19- The Advantage by Patrick Lencioni
20- Good Leaders ask Great questions by John Maxwell
21- Upside Down Crown by Robert Watson * BEST BOOK EVER! :) You can hear from the author on Episode 62. Also the only book he has read with his eyes this year!
22- Essentialism by Greg Mc Keown * Read this book and it's a great one!
23- The 3 Day Effect by Florence Williams.
Jihae's books from 2019
(without the ones that overlap with Chris)
1. Epic Content Marketing by Joe Pulizzi
2. Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple
Such a fun read! And read it in paperback! Yay for reading with your eyes!
3. Permission Marketing by Seth Godin
4. Chop Wood Carry Water by Joshua Medcalf
Not a great book. It's fine, but not great.
5. None Like Him: 10 Ways God is Different From Us by Jen Wilkin
Another fine book, but not my favorite
6. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
FINALLY read this, and in paperback! Definitely now know why it's a classic. First 3/4s of the book was very hard to get through! But worth pushing through.
