book review: reading list

I am reading  Debra Shigley's "The Go-Getter Girls Guide" so far this has been an easy read(since lately am having a readers block mind you not writers since i love blogging), am so inspired by this book, i have share some of the tips am learning from it...

theme: getting what you want in work and life ( and lookin great while your at it) this is a modern day 2009 female empowerment guide and am so loving it right now

the author takes you through several journey of different successful women and the roads that led to their success ( somewhat similar to the concept of my show TIME: teach.inspire.mentor.empower that i created and auditioned for Oprah's OWN network, my pitch is to interview all personalities doing great works in their community- especially the global sense-African community in the diaspora and travel assignment locations, I pray this idea get picked up by a channel AMen! reading this book makes me very optimistic)

lesson learned from the book: 
1. whats you type? go getter vs get along girl, the quiz shows that i am a go getter! goFigure
2. not every person is going to like you in every setting
3.embrace your strengths and weakness
4.enroll in toastmasters: i have been planning to get some form of public speaking training
5. do some volunteer work ( hey i pretty much did all volunteer based work half of last year 2010)
6. write down 5 goals you want to accomplish

this is still an ongoing review as am still on page 49! stayConnected for more updates
