I read 48 books in 2019 totaling 13,235 pages according to Goodreads. 40 of them were read in the last four months of the year. Coincidentally, that was when I cut way back on my television watching. hard to say which books were the best, but there were three that had a big impact on me. #1: The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life Before 8 am by Hal Elrod . A friend recommended this to me. I read it at the beginning of the year but didn’t do anything with it then. Let’s be real: getting up early isn’t for everybody. I am an early bird, but to do it would mean getting up even earlier. I reread it in August and started doing The Miracle Morning in early September. Elrod reviewed systems used by many people to succeed, put them together and came up with what he calls SAVERS: S: Solitude (or meditation) – 5 minutes A: Affirmations – 5 minutes V: Visualization – 5 minutes E: Exercise – 20 minutes R: Reading – 20 mi
