I try and read actual books at night and on weekends.

Being in sales and being in the car, or on the train (before pandemic), or walking downtown Chicago, I like listening to a book on audible or podcasts.

Check them out and let me know what you think! I'd start with  Rich Dad Poor Dad, that's a classic, and the book that got me into sales, it explains why people become rich or poor.

Also super picky here but if someone reads "5" books they won't know which option to choose from.

Yes, but I find interesting tid bites from each and try and apply it. I see a way to repeat it if possible to make it natural.

I know @WCK gave me the heads up earlier. I am trying to find something that has not been done. I even tried the search bar and failed (user error)!

Agreed! But conflicted. I just got told I need to slow it down for a while during my 6-month review.

Slow down your learning... wow.  That doesn't even fit in my head. 

What was the rational given behind that statement?

Me neither, but it was along the lines of they want me simplify the way I sell.

Audiobooks helped me get through more books than old-fashioned reading ever could.  I guess I'm an audio learner
