It has never been easy to be an efficacious business leader. The same challenge though, raises its bar by a few notches during challenging times.

Economies have lapsed, nations have come under lockdown and businesses have been bleeding. No malls functioning, no shows in the theatres and no major sports event to watch out for during the weekend. It seems as the though world has come to a standstill. But, has it really?

All life-essential sectors are still functioning. Food, health and security are available even now. So what is it that has been paused? It could just be… the chaos.

The unintentional chaos created by wanting things in excess.

Now that this chaos has been paused, as unwanted as it may be, it could be the time for you to reflect and learn. Constant learning is one trait you will find in common amongst many efficacious leaders… and the best of them, often, read to learn.

If you couldn’t agree more with what has been mentioned up until now, we have mapped out a few goldmines for you. Well, of course not in the literal sense, but you get it.

Now it is up to you… how deep are you willing to dig to find your gold?

These goldmines are nothing but free online book libraries. Yes, free online book libraries… completely gratis.

They have always been free, as free as they are today! Pity though that they aren’t wildly popular yet.

So, why are we suggesting online books and libraries? Well, because many of you can’t walk into a physical store/library to browse and grab a book of choice.

And why are we suggesting free online libraries? Well, because we reckon the world may be better off if you keep the same money aside for your business, employees or maybe even charity!

Here it is… following is a list of three trusted online libraries that shall offer valuable resources for you to binge on during your (suddenly abundant) free time.

• Directory of Open Access Books
• Internet Archive
• Project Gutenberg

So get through this quarantine period reading/listening books that interest you from these trusted online libraries. The knowledge you gain from these books could potentially help you bounce your way back, once things start returning to normal.

Bounce back harder, smarter and faster than the ones who were just lazing around during this quarantine period.
