This week’s NetWorks Sports’ Recommended Book is Energy Bus: 10 Rules to Fuel Your Life, Work and Team with Positive Energy by Jon Gordon.

With so much going on in our professional and personal lives these days from the polarizing political debates affecting the global economy and everyone’s personal finances to the challenges of a 24/7 workforce, it is difficult to maintain a positive outlook.  But regardless of your position in the home or in the office, you can inspire others to look on the brighter side of things simply by living your life with positivity.

We all know those individuals who you enjoy being around because they are always able to put things into perspective & remain upbeat even through adverse situations.  We all have the ability to positively affect our environment.  With a little focused attention…you can be the person to bring positivity.  It’s contagious!

That’s what Jon Gordon conveys in his bestselling book, which is inspiring people around the globe.

The Energy Bus is easy to read due to Gordon’s witty storytelling and insightful “10 secrets” for success (in life, home, and work). The best part was that the stories were about real people who are going through the same things that you & I are on a daily basis and the tips are simple & easy to incorporate into your life.

The book can probably be read in one sitting (or on a not too long flight), but you may find yourself wanting to backtrack to revisit a lesson that struck a chord with you.

The best thing is that you finish the book inspired with a plan of action to change the energy around you.

Definitely a book to recommend to your family, friends, and co-workers!
