The average person reads less than one book per year, while the average wealthy person reads a minimum of four books a month. Less than one book a year and four books per month - that's like a twelve-fold difference, and it probably results in more than a "twelve-fold" difference in results too. Well, in this blog, we'll talk about 30 books that will change your life absolutely for the better.
Don't worry if you don't feel like reading, you can watch the video here.
"The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" by Mark Manson
Wherever you go, a five-hundred-pound load of problems is waiting for you. And that's perfectly fine. The point isn't to escape these problems but to find the ones you're willing to deal with.
This book challenges the conventional wisdom about positivity and encourages us to embrace life’s struggles. Manson argues that the key to a fulfilling life isn't avoiding problems or seeking constant happiness but rather choosing what to care about. He emphasizes the importance of accepting pain and failure and focusing on values that truly matter. The key to a good life is not giving a f*ck about more but giving a f*ck about less—only about what is true, immediate, and important.
"Hyperfocus" by Chris Bailey
Just because we're busier doesn’t mean we're getting more accomplished. How much of your time do you spend intentionally? How long can you hold your focus in one sitting? How often does your mind wander before you catch it?
"Hyperfocus" explores concentration and productivity amidst today’s distractions. Bailey illuminates how our brains work and offers strategies to optimize attention for better success and satisfaction. He introduces the dual modes of attention—hyperfocus and scatterfocus—and highlights their significance in effective work and creativity. It’s impossible to set future intentions when you’re immersed in the present, but by stepping back and directing your attention inward, you can switch off autopilot and consider what to do next.
"Do It Today" by Darius Foroux
It's easy to do useless work—work that doesn't bring you closer to your desired outcomes. If you want to achieve things in life, aim for daily progress. Exercise, read, work, learn, and study every single day. Inconsistency is the enemy of results.
"Do It Today" offers practical strategies for improving productivity and achieving goals. It emphasizes the importance of taking action and making progress each day rather than procrastinating or waiting for the perfect moment. The book encourages you to manage your attention, not just your time. Invest in yourself by learning new things, reading books, and seeking knowledge. You'll become more productive and excited about life.
"Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman
This book is a seminal work in behavioral economics and cognitive psychology. The book explores the two systems of thinking that drive human decision-making: System 1, which operates quickly and intuitively, and System 2, which is slower and more deliberate.
Kahneman provides insights into how these two systems interact and offers strategies for mitigating the impact of cognitive biases. He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking, self-awareness, and a deliberate approach to decision-making. The book also highlights how we often focus on our goals, neglect relevant data, and expose ourselves to the planning fallacy, leading to overconfidence and an illusion of control.
"Eat That Frog!" by Brian Tracy
If you have to eat two frogs, eat the ugliest one first. This is another way of saying that if you have two important tasks before you, start with the biggest, hardest, and most important one first.
"Eat That Frog!" emphasizes tackling your most challenging or important tasks—your "frogs"—early in the day rather than delaying or avoiding them. Tracy provides a plan to implement goals in your life with seven simple steps:
- Decide what you want.
- Write down your goal.
- Set a deadline for achieving it.
- Make a list of everything you need to do.
- Organize the list as an action plan.
- Execute the plan immediately.
- Build the resolve to keep moving toward your main goal.
