📚 "Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body" - Richard Steele "We read to know we are not alone." - C. S. Lewis. ---------------------------------------------------------- Summer is the perfect time to dive into my favorite books and new books. I'm missing a few as I lend it out to friends but here is what I've been spending bulk of my time when I'm not doing client projects or on the road. No matter how AI or machine learning integrated our world becomes each book reminds me why we'll need more deep readers, thinkers and problem solvers. Whether you read hardcopy or digital, I hope you are giving more time to read, think, reflect and pause. My goal is to finish reading all of these in the next few months. But I'm always looking for more good books and insights. What would you recommend and why? I'll add it to my library. 📚🌏🙋🏻‍♀️ ---------------------------------------------------------- "It is books that are the key to the wide world; if you can't do anything else, read all that you can." - Jane Hamilton ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- #rethinkcreativity #innovatorsbox #innovative #innovation #book #learning #summer #business #nonfiction #entrepreneurlife #entrepreneur #creativity #90년대생이온다 #김져니 #설득 #창의력 #이노베이터박스 #하버드 #직장인 #창업가 #1982년생김지영 #책읽기

Reading by the beach to get some new perspectives is not a bad idea. 😉☀️🏖 Particularly in this melting weather in DC. ----------------------------------------------------------- What was your favorite part about #rethinkcreativity? 🧐 ----------------------------------------------------------- Just caught up with a friend who shares how she was thanked for recommending this book. "I don't know how many people told me how they can't be creative lately. Too many live day to day without joy. They wake up. Go to work. Return and repeat. And feel life is limiting. I knew that they needed #rethinkcreativity. Even if they stay there I knew they could live a different life with it." 🙌❤️ ----------------------------------------------------------- Testimonials like this gives me butterflies and gratitude. I know there are still things I can improve. And to hear how this can bring new joy is humbling and confirming why I wake up each day to do @innovatorsbox and write this book. 🙏🏻 ----------------------------------------------------------- If your aching for that creative wisdom, I hope you add Rethink Creativity for your 2019 summer reading. It may give you the answer you are looking for. It may challenge you. But it will certainly give you new perspective. It's on amazon. And do share, what your favorite parts are. ----------------------------------------------------------- I'm working on translated version in 3 languages and would love to keep that in mind for global audience. Happy weekend friends. 🥳 ----------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- #book #summerreading #innovatorsbox #creativity #professionalgrowth #beach #hawaii #cardgame #innovative #reflect

Never stop dreaming. Never stop working for it. Be grateful. Enjoy every moment. 🙏🏻 🙋🏻‍♀️ --—--—--—--—--—--—--—--— July 2019 officially marks 3 years of doing my business @innovatorsbox full time and leaving my former dream job in nuclear nonproliferation. ☺️ --—--—--—--—--—--—--—--— I had a vision in Fall 2015. Registered my business in January 2016. But still kept my day job as long as possible. That was June 2016. July 1, 2016 became the first day I did my business full time because I ran out of vacation days to run my business. And I wanted to do my former day job respectfully too. 🌠 --—--—--—--—--—--—--—--— Was it hard? Yes. Do I regret? No. Have I learned a lot? Yes. And continue to do so each day. This week as I prepare for a series of critical meetings for my company I reflect on how this journey has been. How it shaped me become a better person, better leader, and a better human being. I'm deeply humbled, grateful and joyful each day. Tough days remind me why rainbows are even more colorful and must be celebrated. And each person's story remind me why we urgently need to do this work. On to a series of new things this year and can't wait to keep you all posted. 🌈 --—--—--—--—--—--—--—--— For now I guess I can tell how I've aged wiser with the same smile of joy I had in this picture in 2016. Thank you all for being part of this journey. Thank you for moving mountains together. 🏞🎉 --—--—--—--—--—--—--—--— #innovatorsbox #rethinkcreativity #entrepreneur #femaleentrepreneur #innovation #creativity #reflection #truth #journey #gratitude #humbled #innovators #innovative #dctech #speaker #author #workshop

Monday's are good days to remind myself why I need to take a different seat. What will you do differently this week, this month, this year? . Essays from my #CupofPerspective collection. 👍 . . Read more online at @innovatorsbox.

Blue skies remind me how limitless our future looks. 🌈🌠✨ (If we choose to see it that way.) There is no end. No start. No defining. So many unknown. It can be scary, freeing and liberating. You choose. . –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– As Oscar Wilde says "to define is to limit." . –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– . This shot is from 2015 as I started dreaming of building @innovatorsbox while I still worked at my nuclear nonproliferation job in Arlington. We still got a long way to go but we've learned and done a lot in 3 years. Reflecting and recharging from 7 weeks of being on the road. And getting ready for our next busy season. Deeply grateful and humbled at what I've learned, who I've become, and who I've meet and befriended. The amazing people, experience and opportunities that led me to each moment. Moving mountains together. #reflection #humbled #entrepreneurlife
