After finishing an audiobook about TED speakers by Carmine Gallo, I returned to the Audible website to purchase a new book. This time I purchased an audiobook called “Crucial Conversations” by Kerry Patterson. While running in the early morning, I enjoy listening to these types of educational tools. Without audiobooks, I wouldn’t be able to take any time for reading. The work that I’m doing now requires too many hours. I run between 4:00 and 5:30 each morning. Then I spend a little time with my wife eating breakfast, and I leave for the office where I work at 6:30. I arrive before 7:00 and commence to a full day of work. I stay in the office until after 6:00 each evening. By the time I return home, Carole and I spend some time eating together, but we’re in bed quite early. I’ve always had to prioritize activities, and right now I choose not to reserve time for reading books, which is why I’m grateful for the Audible app. By listing to audiobooks, I’m able to continue learning even when I can’t divert time to read.
