Motivating Read for These Times
I recently read "Edge: Turning Adversity into Advantage" by Laura Huang.
https://www.amazon.com/Edge-Turning-Adversity-into-Advantage-ebook/dp/B07RYHMXW8
With focus on authenticity and empowerment, it's important to understand who you are and what your skills bring to your work environment and team. The book focuses on 4 ideas:
Enrich. Delight. Guide. Effort. How we can turn adversity into our own advantage—turn adversity into our edge.
“Enrich.” The foundation of your edge is your ability to provide value to and enrich those around you.
“Delight.” Before you can enrich, you have to be let in. We do this by delighting others.
“Guide.” Gaining an edge is about you in relation to other people.
"Effort” How effort and hard work reinforce the edge that you create for yourself. Sometimes it’s as much what we do as it is the effort that we put into not doing other things.
I hope everyone understands her own edge.

Thank you for book review and synopsis of the key points. What is your "edge"?
