Three (3) Productivity Books for Advancing Big Ideas

To build your business with your ideas requires more than inspiration. It also requires less thrilling things such as systems, habits, and boundaries.

In my ongoing work with leaders, entrepreneurs, and creatives, I’m always on the look out for resources to help them leverage their ideas into lasting influence.

These three books I’ve found illuminating and complementary to what we do at Tracking Wonder:

How To Begin by Michael Bungay Stanier (Page Two) MBS.works

Start Finishing: How to Go From Idea to Done by Charlie Gilkey (Sounds True) Charlie Gilkey

Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport (Grand Central Publishing)
