2019 : Book #1 Review - Profit First by Mike Michalowicz

The first book I chose to read for 2019 was Profit First by Mike Michalowicz. I know.. The title of the book may lead you to think that it is focused around greed towards money and keeping all the cash for yourself. No? Well, that was my first impression upon reading the title and slightly made me off-put. However, this book is FAR from teaching how to focus on materialism and hoarding money for the sake of hoarding money. Instead, this book really helped me view money in a new way. A way that truly will benefit my business, my personal finances and, overall, my quality of life.
