Book recommendations?

Hey.
I am currently reading "YOU CAN WIN" by Shiv Khera and its awesome! You can search google for free pdf also.
I am going for another book by Paul Kalanithi, called "When Breath Becomes Air".

 

Good on you to take up reading! It's definitely one of the best investments you can make in yourself. In no particular order are a few of my recommendations ( I know its numbered but they're all good and in different subject areas; I just like lists...)

1. Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins is a pretty solid read.
2. Waking up by Sam Harris examines spirituality without religion.
3. The Wealthy Barber for personal finance and staying financially smart.
4. 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey is a great resource to become more productive.
5. The Power of Discipline by Brian Tracy can help you stay committed to habits you choose to form.
6. Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell examines how 10000 hours of work into any task can help you achieve mastery and how this has positions NHL players born in the first 4 months for success & how Bill Gates used this to start Microsoft

Good luck and I look forward to exploring suggestions that other posters put forth!

 

The Porn Trap
(Really gets into detail of the addiction and recovery process)
And 7 habits of highly effective people
The Power of Now

 

"Rich Dad Poor Dad" and "The Richest Man In Babylon". Completely changed my perspective on money and jobs.

 

Everyone needs to read Leadership and Self Deception

 

I'll echo everyone else about 7 Habits. If you take those, it helps you avoid addiction.

 

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck.
Hamlet.
Call of Chutulu.
Think and Grow Rich.

 

The Alchemist is always my number one recommended book. 73 pages only and I read it 1-2 times a year.

 

The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday. It introduces you to Stoicism. Changed my life

 

I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST FOLLOWING BOOKS

1. SECRETS
2. THE POWER OF POSITIVE LIVING
3. YOU CAN WIN
4. THE MAGIC OF THINKING BIG

 

"How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" by Dale Carnegie.

Let me add here that I think people who really want to improve their lives are much better off picking one or two solid books, reading them and then applying the principles contained therein every day, rather than trying to read as many books as possible. A good rule of thumb is to spend two hours applying the concepts for every hour spent reading about them.

Easier said than done.

 

The Shack written by Will P Young and Driven by Enternity by John Bevere.

 

Get a King James Bible.

No, seriously. This document has had a huge impact on history. Some of those things you mention about philosophy and so forth are dealt with comprehensively! Not "new" or revised version, just the good old Authorized Version. Maybe you find God. Either way, you'll understand a lot more about people who claim that discovery.

 

These books changed my life in all aspects
So I recommend them

1. The magic by rhonda Byrne
2. Ask and it is given by Esther and Jerry hicks
3. Astonishing power of emotions by Esther and Jerry hicks
4. Money and the law of attraction by Esther and Jerry hicks
5. Conversations with God by neale donald Walsh (book 1)
6. Unlimited power by Anthony Robbins (I think, it's available as a podcast)
7. The secret by rhonda Byrne
8. Hero by rhonda Byrne

Wish the best for you

 

Total recall by Arnold from terminator. Can't spell his last name lol..
