I have recently discussed the importance of having a routine, and setting goals for my children while we are all home fighting the spread of COVID-19. I am going to use this time to get more physically fit, do more strategic thinking, and read more books. The three books I plan to read this month are:
“Can’t Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds” by David Goggins. Obviously, we can all use some mindset help right now.
“Barrio America: How Latino Immigrants Saved the American City” by A. K. Sandoval-Strausz. I have been meaning to read this book for a while, and I think the timing might now be perfect. Latinos have helped our country pull out of past economic crises, and I’m pretty sure Latinos will do the same this time around.
“The Back Roads to March: The Unsung, Unheralded, and Unknown Heroes of a College Basketball Season” by John Feinstein. For those of us who love college basketball and are struggling without March Madness, this book should be a fun read.
Professional investors know that the best way to make it big is to believe in something that almost everyone disagrees with - and be right. That could be a business idea, an investment opportunity, or a cultural trend.
Next week, I will be speaking at a Hispanic Leadership Summit at the United Nations. I was asked to speak on the topic of Unity. The following is a preview of my speech.
Happy Thanksgiving! The blog will resume on December 8, 2024.
