Most Business Books don’t work unless you do

Most business books don’t work just as knowledge in general as it comes down to simply what you do with what you know!

Most business book are bought at a moment when the person is motivated to do something – it’s a recommendation from a colleague or heard or read about the book from somewhere else.

The problem is not with the intention, because it all start with intention, it’s in the doing. The intention is to read, digest and implement. The reality is that even when the book is read and often these are not, the main message of the book gets lost or left behind. This is often because there is so much there – a lot more than just the key lesson and messages. There are often stories told about the Author to establish credibility and continuously selling the author rather than prioritising and focusing on the ideas and lesson itself.

Secondly and a bit obvious really there is no impact is that it doesn’t get read, often the reader just flicks through the book and may dip into a few paragraphs here and there and then leave it. It doesn’t grip the attention long enough -or its not meant to be read in short bites, so rather than self-development it becomes “shelf” development as we just stick the book on a shelf.

It is this reason; I keep harping on about carefully selecting the books you wish to read and filtering through the noise. As for my own books- the Canny Bites book series, these strive to be short sharp impactful bites of wisdom that I share with you that you can easily dip in and out of.

My latest book is the fourth in the series and is titled: ‘ Canny Bites series: Successfully Scale Up or Exit Your Business’

For those that know me, are aware that: Learning and self-development for me is about learning from peers, webinars, seminars, conferences, LinkedIn, YouTube, podcasts, audio books and of course books and there is so much out there – its important to pick what’s right for you – so what do you do to pick what’s right for you?
