Episode #191: How a Daily Inspirational Reading Practice Can Be Transformative


Listen Later

Today we’re doing something a little different. Instead of discussing career options and transitions, we’re going to focus on the mindset piece. I’ll be sharing a practice that can help set your mindset for the day: daily inspirational readings. These readings can come from various sources, whether it's a book you enjoy, a religious text, journaling, or meditation. I’ll introduce you to four different daily readers that offer short, impactful lessons to help frame your day positively and constructively. This practice can be incredibly transformative, helping you deal with life's challenges with a more empowered perspective.

In this episode we’re talking about:

  • The importance of a daily practice to frame your mindset.
  • How daily readings can provide perspective and help deal with life's challenges.
  • Personal stories illustrating the impact of these practices.
  • Four recommended daily readers and examples from each.
  • The value of combining reading with short meditation sessions.
  • Practical steps to establish your own daily inspirational reading practice.
  • The overarching themes of patience and perseverance found in all four recommended books.
