The first book is uh Consolations by by David Whyte. Um this is the book that I've I've gifted most to friends, I think, more than any other book. And he basically has 52 definitions of words like ambition is is I think the first word. And his writing is just it just blows me away. I I open this to a random page, read the definition, and it's just uh it's probably affected me more than any other book.

15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership, which is I imagine has come up before in in your podcast. Um this is by Jim Dethmer and Diana Chapman. They have the Conscious Leadership Group, and this is basically in my opinion, it's it's the best leadership book that I've come across

Every entry is a verbatim quote and a link to the public post it came from. Nothing is paraphrased. If it is not on record somewhere public, it is not here.
The verdict is what they actually said: loved and liked are explicit; recommended means they told others to get it; uses means they only say they use it; read is a book on their public shelf with no verdict; mixed and disliked are kept too.
A dashed affiliate link, sponsored or their own label means the post disclosed a relationship. It is shown, never hidden.
The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is for its kind of thing.
The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is, for its kind of thing. Fully green is recent. It drains a quarter at a time as the post gets older, and is empty once it reads as dated.
What counts as old depends on the thing. A laptop praised four years ago has been replaced twice; a book loved twenty years ago is probably still loved. The shading is gone after about:
Hardware, services4 years
Software5 years
Podcasts, courses, other8 years
Books25 years
Stripes mean the post carries no date and the date shown is an estimate. No date at all, no shading.
