Feel-Good Productivity, by Ali Abdaal, completely won me over recently, but I also want to share another favorite book of mine from a long time ago that experienced an unlikely resurgence recently, due to the (seemingly) unlikely actions of an NFL player.

If you were reading a book instead of watching the Super Bowl Half-Time show this year, from what I heard, you didn’t miss much!

Sounds like it was pretty terrible. But…I’m glad the Eagles won, because it turns out that their superstar wide-receiver, A.J. Brown, is one of us! He’s a reader!

In fact, he was seen reading Inner Excellence, by Jim Murphy, on the sidelines of one of his recent playoff games, causing it to absolutely BLOW UP on Amazon, rising 53,000,000% in the rankings and hitting Number 1 Bestseller status within…12 HOURS!

In one of my latest YouTube videos, I share a few of my best notes + takeaways from Inner Excellence, have AJ explain in his own words what that book meant to him and why he read it, and then I also say just a few words about how astoundingly awesome it is that NFL players are making books cool again.
