Hello everyone welcome to my blog, Iam @lordwealth, giving you the juice with words.

Its been confirmed that success has a pattern and it will only be wise to look out for those pattern and replicate them in your life to become your own version of that success you admire.

It has always been said that you are limited by the knowledge you don't know and for this reason i found this Covid-19 season a very important time in human history. The global pandemic was a blessing and not a curse as many would think it is as it helped presents us with oppurtunities we normally wouldn't have, and that oppurtunity is the free time it gave us to gain more knowledge and improve ourselves.

As Changpeng Zhao who we popularly call him CZ, CEO of @binance one of the world's largest crypto exchange by volume stated in one of thier most recent blogs "that reading books gives you two superpowers that can help you achieve your goals" one of which he said helps you develop your critical thinking and the other help you level up your communication skills.

These two superpower ability that he gave can be seen in his life as we can all reckon that CZ possesses both ability, we can all attest to the fact that from no where he appeared on the blockchain space and he is now a formidable force to reckon with, this i will say just let you know the quality of his mind, the way it works, the quality of his thought, his brute executions and his excellent communication of his ideas.

Use the comment section tell me the first book you are definitely reading from among the list. I for one am taking them sequentially as the list goes, one book at a time.

So whatever way you are going to consume them, make sure you do, visit your library get the hard copy or download a pdf copy, use an audiobook app that can help you read out, any which way, just get read up and watch your mind improve. An improved mind is a wealthy live
