The Price of Becoming: The Compounding Practices of High Performance
By Ryan Hawk
Reading Schedule:
July 1st — July 31st
"The Price of Becoming refuses to sell you a shortcut. Instead, Hawk shows how small daily deposits—one hundred shots, five hundred words, a single tough conversation—compound into something that looks like an overnight success to anyone who wasn't paying attention. This is a clear-eyed, powerful book."
