015 - The Big Leap - Gay Hendrix
Johnny's Library
The Big Leap by Gay Hendrix re-hit the scene after the pandemic with a bang. Everyone was searching for meaning or purpose and this book offered many insights to living a life true to yourself, thus it became the topic of many podcast episodes and YouTube videos. I finally read it, and want to discuss key take-aways I got from doing so. From moving to and operating in your Zone of Genius, to recognizing patterns of my own self-limitation and self sabotage so I could stop arguing for my limitations. Tune in, and check out your own copy of The Big Leap by Gay Hendrix today.

013 - 48 Days To The Work (And Life) You Love - Dan Miller
Johnny's Library
48 Days To The Work (And Life) You Love by Dan Miller is a wonderful book outlining how to craft your entire life, not just your career, into what you desire it to be. This book has been on my list to read for a long time but I have not read it because I told myself the 48 Days podcats was enough. This was a on over justification for not taking the time to read the book but this summer I made the decision to dive in and I am so glad I did. I believe everyone should read this book regardless of if they are looking for a new job or career change. The steps outlined in 48 Days To The Work...

012 - Everyday Millionaires - Chris Hogan
Johnny's Library
There is so much talk going around right now saying it is impossible (and maybe immoral) to build wealth in today's society. I think that mindset is ridiculous and it reminded me of the book Everyday Millionaires by Chris Hogan I read a few years ago that outlines a clear process to building a million dollar net worth. Is it easy? For some yes, for others no. Is it possible? Absolutely. Even if you do not believe it is possible please stop stealing hope and joy from others who still believe it is. There are coutnless people showing a million dollar net worth is completely obtainable in today's...

011 - The Daily Reading of 75 Hard
Johnny's Library
It's 75 Hard Week at JohnnyBoy Studios so of course I have to include an episode about The Daily Reading of 75 Hard! I went through 75 Hard in the fall of 2022 and this podcast was born out of that journey. Part of the program is to daily read 10 pages of a non-fiction book which aligned with a goal I had to read more. Those 75 days gave me a framework for moving forward with the practice of reading personal development books on a more regular basis. That is a practice I will be reengaging with moving forward. I truly believe the right books can change your entire future if you just take the...

009 - The Proximity Principle - by Ken Coleman
Johnny's Library
In order to do what you want to do you need to get around people who are already doing it, in places it is already being done. That's the Proximity Principle summed up in one sentence. The genuis behind this book though, is that Ken shows you how to use the Proximity Principle to get your dream job. This book is not about how to use people and step over them to get to your goals, it is about being intentional with your connections and your time to make those dreams a reality. I had the pleasure of meeting Ken at an event and talking to him breifly about the book, he gave me more insight...

Think And Grow Rich - by Napoleon Hill (pt. 1) Often referred to as the blueprint for modern-day affirmational thinking Think And Grow Rich is not the book I thought it was.

Think And Grow Rich will help you reframe your thinking on what you want in life, and take practical, actionalble steps to get there. In today's episode I walk through just the very first part of the book and key in on 1 principle I believe encompasses the entire message of...
