Reading List for September (Week 5) by Rochelle D’souza

Hello!

Hope all of you are doing well. 

The rains in Mumbai-Thane create the perfect mood to read and sip some hot tea. 

How far have you reached with the reading list? Do you read regularly and do you make an effort to read all that is there on the list?

It may be challenging to finish the list at times. Remember then that you must enjoy what you do and the purpose of the list is to encourage you to read regularly. If you are reading regularly, then our (both yours and mine) is met. 

The list for this week has 20 articles and includes two essays by Tagore. 

I am also happy to share an article that my brother wrote about using the 80/20 Principle (some of you may know about it) in trnasforming business.
