If you are a student, or live with a student, the beginning of September is a special time. It's a time of preparation and a second fresh start: a new school year. New pens, notebooks, binders, planners, and a whole slew of apps and promises to make this school term better then the last one.
People really start to appreciate and embrace their creature comforts. Sweaters come out, tea drinkers and coffee drinkers commingle over steaming cups (even if it's still 85 degrees outside). It's a time of camaraderie- everyone seems to be facing something new together.
If you've been enjoying your summer, and thinking about starting your own business, this is a great time. You'll be right there along with other nervous students of the world who are about try something new. Like the brand new stack of brilliantly witty notebooks you just bought, you are a blank slate.
So, intrepid explorers, take note! Much like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, here is the Say It Simply Summer Reading List:
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
You Are A Badass by Jen Sincero
The Art of Asking by Amanda Palmer
On Writing by Stephen King
Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson
Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card
