My name is Zac and I love to read. I want to read more but I get distracted rather easily. So I gave myself a goal to read a thousand books. A pretty hefty goal but I have a life time to complete it. Since I plan on reading an obscene amount of books I thought hey why not recommend some. So that’s why I created ZReadsAndRecommends which is my newsletter and website. I plan on tracking my progress on my journey and share the amazing books I read along the way. below this is the book of the month enjoy.

Have you ever struggled to do anything important? Has there ever been something you know you have to do but just end up not doing it? This thing you need to do would be a net positive for your life and perhaps the people around you. So why then do you not do it what stops you from doing what’s important? That is what The War of Art teaches you as well as shows you how to overcome this enemy of productivity.

I love this book because it’s helped me do more with my life. I use to be afraid to try new things and put myself out there. I still am but despite that I still keep working. This book helped me start this newsletter. I had the idea to start a newsletter months before I did anything about it. The book helped me focus on starting and from there has helped me continue. I owe this book a lot of credit so read it fall in love with it and thank me later.

I would recommend this to everyone. It’s a short book about 190 pages but feels like a hundred. If you’re struggling to start something or keep something going couldn’t hurt to get a little help.

We fear discovering that we are more than we think we are. More than our parents/children/teachers think we are. We fear that we actually possess the talent that our still, small voices tell us. That we actually have the guts, the perseverance, the capacity. We fear that we truly can steer our ship, plant our flag, reach our promised land. We fear this because, if it’s true, then we become estranged from all we know. We pass through a membrane. We become monsters and monstrous. We know that if we embrace our ideals, we must prove worthy of them. And that scares the hell out of us. What will become of us?
