๐ #SaturdayShelfie: Book 17 โ Start with Why by Simon Sinek
Soโฆ remember the #StorySaturday series I launched today? As I shared the story of how I got my first job, it made me pause and reflect, not just on what happened, but on why it mattered so much.
Looking back I admit I didnโt know much then, but I knew I had one why; to find money to take myself to college.
That was my fuel.
And now that I think about it, I realized that Iโve always had these WHYs guiding me quietly from one season to the next.

Last Saturday, I didnโt post a #Shelfie.
Not because I didnโt want to, but because life happenedโcircumstances beyond my control.
And honestly? Thatโs exactly why this weekโs recommendation makes so much sense.
After high school, I had one goal: to go to college. But finances at home were tight, and university felt like a distant dream. Still, I had a planโI was going to find a job, save up, and take myself to school. That goal became my north star.

After writing todayโs #StorySaturday post, I couldnโt help but think of this book as my next recommendation.
When I look back at how this whole blogging journey beganโwith nothing but a story about a traffic jam and the courage to hit โpublishโโI realize that was me, unknowingly, putting my dream to the test.
Yesterday, I had a conversation that stirred something deep in me. If you didnโt already know, one of the things I truly enjoy, maybe even a little too much, is writing and reading. Over the years, that passion has evolved into something more: editing manuscripts, reports, individual bios, and other publications. Itโs one of those things I just do, and do well.
