Business Insider called the other day to ask about what books to read in a recession. I am biased towards the benefits of reflection and resetting the path. Many a GREAT success story has a very hard inflection point from which a different trajectory emerges. This reporter added a lot of great practical books to the list as well. Have a look. Reading, in general, is just a great activity to keep constructive thinking - and these books, in particular, might help us navigate as we come out of the worst of the Covid Crisis - and still navigate what will be a struggling labor market for months to come...

Stephanie Land has been among the 40,000,000 Americans who rely on SNAP to strive to feed their family. She navigated cleaning houses, 7 govt support programs, abusive relationships. She powered through days with hard work and kept her heart focused on the stars with love for her daughter and determination for a brighter future. And she triumphed! Through online and night classes she became a great writer. And as of 2019 a best selling author!
I just read her book this weekend and am a better person for it. Suggest you check it out via Amazon link below - or the nearest library if that works better for you. I find Stephanie's work to be both enlightening and inspirational. I hope we all make Jobcase realize its potential to be the platform to manage your worklife, to navigate to a better tomorrow. To make things easier in managing the future of work and the now-of-work. We all can use some help, no matter what your situation. Stephanie's story is harder than most but certainly not unique. Her triumph feels unique though. We need to make triumphing less unique. For everyone.
Thanks for inspiring Stephanie!
onwards & upwards,
All that #printing and #bookbinding is worth it because it frequently results in new #books that will be handed out to students on the first day of the new class.
