Welcome!

It is our desire to bring you the digital books that will help you grow personally and profitably.

Why not choose some ebooks for yourself, your family members, and your friends.

*

Today the website includes 2 fun novels and a business growth book - for free downloads.

I also have some hardbound books that may or may not be collector's books for sale at http://bestgrowth-businessebooks.c/page/sell-old-books/

I may make this an eclectic site. My plan is to have ebooks that promote personal growth and build businesses, but there are other "finds" that I may wish to share with those who find this site. More on that later.

I hope you enjoy this site and come back to this site often, watch us GROW and evolve. We will be having more to offer in the near future.

There Is Value In Reading
By Theodora Hackenberg
November 28, 2008

 Books contain a wealth of knowledge, statistics, facts, history, fantasy, and much more; ideas that are abstract and ideas that are concrete.  There is value in reading for personal growth, business knowledge and growth, and for relaxation.  If we are striving to get ahead in our business or our jobs we can find what we need to know in books.  If we want to build or repair a thing – cabinets, plumbing, a toy for a grandchild, stitchery for the walls – can find the instructions in a book.  There are books on how to improve our personalities, our lives, our social position.    Within books of biography, history, or fiction we can find a kindred spirit and learn and grow from it.  A properly researched and written novel can bring history to life in a way the history books cannot; unless you had my college history teacher who could really bring history to life.  Sitting in her class was not dull.

   Reading encourages our minds to think and reflect on what we’ve read, to sort through it and see if it’s true.  It teaches us to think logically and connect the pieces.  It increases our attention span, it slows us down in this hectic paced world, and it calms our spirits.  We reflect on what we’ve read.

 A couple of quotes:
“Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.” – Sir Richard Steele
“If you want to prepare yourself for great achievement and have more to contribute, try reading more books.  Pick up some of the great classics and search for well-researched material that can help you grow.” – Larry Greider
“Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is.” – Isaac Asimov

Reading books continues our education long after we’ve finished school yet 58% of the US adult population never reads another book after high school.  Even more shocking is that 42% of college graduates never read another book.1  We should never let our education stop.  We must never stop reading.
