The Official SFJ Top 20.

My #100bookchallenge has finally(!) come to an end.

15,194 pages read (58 Books).

4,711 minutes of listening (26 books).

I believe it’s crucial to reflect on why I started this challenge: I love learning, I wanted a challenge that pushed me, I wanted to be inspired and I wanted some quiet time to recharge. Ultimately, I read an epic 84 books in 52 weeks because: I was continuously learning, applying and reinforcing concepts. I was organised enough to research and ask for recommendations, wise enough to put down a book I wasn’t enjoying, disciplined to choose books over facebook and stubborn enough to continue!
