Simeon Hendrix / Steady Focused Recommended Reading List:
In August of 2016, at the age of 35 my life changed forever when I subscribed to audio books by Audibe.com. Up until that point, outside of the required reading for school, I had finished a handful of books in my entire life. I've always had a hunger for knowledge, and regularly gorged myself on podcasts and videos, but I was ignorant to the power of audio books.
This list is ever growing. In no particular order. I have read, digested, reread, contemplated and been profoundly influenced, inspired and educated by the books below. I highly recommend that you read or listen to these books.
