I like to read. A LOT. And when I run across a really good 4* or 5* book, I feel compelled to take some notes. I can’t guarantee they’re nearly as good as the source, but I can guarantee at least one good nugget of awesomeness in each one.
UPDATE: These notes have been made part of the Strengths Community.
