@shelikavoid @RyanHoliday I registered on Goodreads but I never pursued with the different groups and writing my book review. I should though! What's your username, and I'll find you and start following you.

I love reading more than words can describe (or maybe they can describe it); if you are looking for holiday reading, check out @RyanHoliday. I'm ploughing through "Ego Is The Enemy", and realising some honest truths. A thought provoking and sometimes uncomfortable book.

As an aside to the motivational quotes for this week, the amazingly talented @Nic365, CMO of @GoCardless, has just recommended that I read "Purple Cow" by @ThisIsSethsBlog Anyone else read it? I'm toying between this and "The Everything Store" as my next book of choice.

@SophyMavridis what a great article! Thank you for sharing with me. I've heard quite a bit about Zoho in my career so far so I'm interested to see how they progress. Fubbi looks brilliant as well; some great articles on there!

Think about, what you think about when your effort is low. When your effort is low you're thinking about the obligation and not the opportunity. https://t.co/JGILBnt87Z
