For many years, it was my tradition as a reporter to compile a list of self-help books in January to help readers of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution get their New Year’s resolutions off to a winning start.
It started in 2012 and, with the exception of a few skipped years, lasted nearly a decade. I could say I was doing it in service of readers but if I’m being honest, my motivations were selfish.
I wanted to know how to make real change in my personal life, in my community and, when I was really thinking big, in the country and maybe the world.
