This book is for leaders and artists. I actually believe they are often one in the same. An excellent leader doesn’t get to be that way without a sense of creativity and artistry. Likewise, the artist shapes opinions, causes introspection and moves the spirit, if not the body. To do that is to demonstrate leadership.

Charlie 'Tremendous' Jones famously and frequently said, “You are the same today you’ll be in five years except for two things: the people you meet and the books you read.” It’s 2009. Five years ago, Facebook was just starting at Harvard. No one had heard of Twitter or YouTube and Barack Obama wasn’t even a U.S. Senator yet. Indeed, things change. I for one am open for even more change. That’s why I’m embarking on the 50 Book Challenge. I intend to read fifty books or more this year. For the first time ever, I’m going to keep track of what books I read and you can too with this tool. Care to join me? Don’t be a stickler, audio books count and all books are valid, thick or thin, fiction or non-fiction alike. Maybe you’ll choose to keep track of how many books you read aloud to a child or a grandparent. In a small way, you’ll change your world.

Have you ever driven in a car with a sticky fuel gauge? What an unnerving experience. You either calculated mileage in your head, or stopped to fill up at nearly every gas station you came across. Can you imagine sailing around in the ocean without a chart? It may be fun and carefree when the sun is shining and the shore is in sight; but all that changes when a sudden fog quickly rolls in. For those reasons, I believe you should have a Personal Dashboard. A simple set of instruments to look at that help ease your nerves and stay on course.
