My 2025 Reads & 2026 Reading List | The Leader's Library

I did it! 🎉 This year, I challenged myself to read 12 books, and not only am I going to show you every single one, but I'm also revealing the 12 books I'm committing to reading next year—and why you should read them with me. Correction: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life by Brian Tracy: Details five steps to personal power (Idealize, Verbalize, Visualize, Emotionalize, Realize). I'll be posting a mini-review of each of these books on the last Sunday of every month. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any updates! Subscribe:    / @aecleadership   Thank you.
