3 parts I liked best: Books, Tools and Networking.

Books:

I read all of them except 'Make Time', and completely agree with the recommendation. I would add:

1. The making of a manager by Julie Zhuo

2. Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win

3. It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work

Tools:

Thanks! I downloaded the Turkeyblocker, it's $39 now :)

Networking:

This can bring you huge benefits. Done write, it's almost like free coaching :)

Career opportunities, fascinating conversations, improving your skills. This one gave me a huge boost.

Thanks for the high-quality content!
