Guide to Learning 10 Key Skills to Thrive in 2020 – Month Three

Introduction to Guide to Learning 10 Key Skills to Thrive in 2020

Hopefully, by now, you have completed Month Two of the Strategic Reading Challenge, and getting the hang of reading five books in the month. I structured the reading challenge, so that you can easily learn the 10 key skills needed for future jobs. To complement the books that you read to learn and master the skills, I created a series of curated posts on each of the 10 skills.

Before you start Month Three of the Strategic Reading Challenge, make sure that you have all your five books handy. This way you know which books you intend to read, and you can read them one after another without scrambling to find a book to read. Once again, before you buy any books, look at the unread books you have that meet the reading requirements for this month. This is a way to save money.
