Sounds crazy but a lot of the spiritual/philosophical books that I've read have deeply impacted my life, business and mind set way more than most solely business-oriented books have done. Books like I Am That by Nisargadatta Maharaj and old zen manuals such as the Transmission of Mind by Huang Po are very, very powerful. As for business books, the Education of Millionaires by Michael Ellsberg is a great motivational read with some good resources thrown in.

 

[Sam Beddall]

Oh and at the moment I'm reading The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli. Pretty good if you like ancient Florentine politics and essays on power plays... can't stop being an English literature graduate. Good luck

 

[Franky Neizer]

do you know any books on selling?
a book with a sales system, scripts or step by step... not with only generic theory or motivation...
thanks in advance

@Mbiz79 You should try one of those 'Dummies' books on the above topic, believe me you'll find one which helps. Like: Sales System for Dummies
Some dumb writer will have something on it pretty soon... Ikr

@Sam Beddall Have you read the Art of War- Sun Tzu; very good book. I started reading the book 18 months ago and I haven't even gotten to the middle (crazy right?? lol) It's quite a clever book and you need lots of time.

No mate I've never read Sun Tzu, always see it then end up picking something else up instead! Thanks for the recommendation. Will add it to the list.

Fountainhead by Ayn Rand...recommended by Cuban I got it on Audible

Entrepreneur Revolution

Just read this, while half the book is the usual stuff that we all know, the latter half is a great read!

 

[Longinus]

Just finished "How to get rich" from Felix Dennis. Not easy to read if English isn't your mother tongue, but has some good advice concerning entrepreneurship.

If you're out here hustling, you don't necessarily have time to decipher and interpret (how you filter information is important) ancient riddles that are centuries upon centuries old.

Check this out.

Also, watching the Sun-Tzu Documentary on the Art of War can help. I've probably watched it hundreds of times, but I have an obsessive and repetitive aspect to my character.

In that documentary, they discuss Go-style strategy versus chess-style strategy. Robert Greene discusses this in 48th Law (assume formlessness). Assuming formlessness and concentrating your forces are probably two of the most important laws. Maybe the most important. Greene discusses the Go versus Chess dichotomy in the 48th Law, and compares Vietnamese General Giap's strategy style as "3-D Chess" (Star Trek reference).

Heh-heh-heh... or multidimensional Go.

I am actually reading the millionaire fastlane right now. I'm definitely intrigued.

Unleash The Warrior Within by Richard Machowitz. Great motivator for anyone doing anything in life.

This is a popular one: Sun Tzu's Art Of War. While Sun Tzu was a murderer and a despicable human being, he offers some great strategies which can be applied to life

 

[lovar]

I totally recommend the book list from rsdnation.

Hope it helps

 

[jilla82]

right now im reading:

When I Stop Talking, You'll Know I'm Dead: Useful Stories from a Persuasive Man by Jerry Weintraub

I started reading biographies of people who have made a mark. I think the internet crowd gets too stuck on the latest thing, and forgets that there are industry monsters that have put their thoughts down on paper.

Fountainhead by Ayn Rand...recommended by Cuban I got it on Audible

Wow Cuban read Ayn Rand huh? I have read The Fountainhead but everyone seems to suggest that I read Atlas Shrugged, her magnum opus. What did you think about Fountainhead? Pretty big for my standards (I am Greek) but when Howard gave his speech, I was like "all those pages were written for this part here".

To anyone interested, read it here

Hey, I have read about 5 books so far and am looking for a good list of books/audio books to run through. I am also open to some motivational CD's. Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

The Millionaire Fast Lane by M J DeMarco

How to Get Out of Debt, Stay Out of Debt & Live Prosperously by Jerrold Mundis

The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham

One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch

Liar’s Poker by Michael Lewis

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker

 

[Franky Neizer]

@Ubermensch You are right though, when you're out hustling you don't have the time to decipher ancient riddles which are centuries old. I love reading the book 'Art of War' but I just don't think I will ever complete it.
I've got the repetitive obsession about my character as well, I've watched the movie 'Wall Street' over a 100 times and I still love it; I've read 'The Unemployed millionaire- Matt Morris' a couple of times and it still inspires me. Still on 'The Snowball- Warren Buffet', great book.
What are you reading currently?

 

[Formless]

This is for any man who has grown up in an abusive childhood, or in a 'matriarchal' society and therefore hasn't learned 'male' values (This is not some Anti Women 'Bold and Determined' misogynist bullshit, don't worry.):

No More Mr. Nice Guy - Robert Glover. This book turned me from a shutout who would get panic attacks from looking at pretty girls or talking to the 'cool kids', to a person who can function in society normally, work a sales and telemarketing job etc. (I'm not at total comfort yet, but I will be there by 01/03/15.)

Just bought the Kindle version of Think And Grow Rich by Napolean Hill for 95 cents. 95 cents!? The first page alone is worth that!

 

[Silverhawk851]

If you want to actually remove pain and live the rest of your life in total bliss, I can't see how you can do that without these bags of gold:

1.Psycho-Cybernetics by Dr Maxwell Maltz, the book all of Jim Rohn's, Tony Robbins', Les Brown's, Eric Thomas', etc work is based on.
2. 177 Mental Toughness Secrets of the World Class by Steven Siebold ....unreal. highlights those tiny, minute differences we make which make us Extraordinary, average or sub-par. Actually an audiobook, get it ASAP.

Thanks my value add, hope you all can benefit from it as much as I did

Yeah @Silverhawk851 Psycho-Cybernetics is really the 'template' of probably 90% of the self-help guys stuff. It's simply filtered, updated, and adapted to anything from personal development to PUA.

Funny I just picked up 177 Mental Toughness Secrets ... guess I'll give it a read.

 

[geko_man]

Just found that 'Think and Grow rich' the Entrepreneur and small business owner's edition is FREE on the itunes store! Go get it!

 

[Michael1359]

The Millionaire Fastlane , of course.

The 48 Laws of Power is excellent, and can be found free online in a .pdf.
The Personal MBA by Josh Kaufman is excellent.
How to Win at the Sport of Business by Mark Cuban.

Reading this one right now. I normally read a book per month, but I can't seem to be able to lay it down and will probably finish it in less than a week. Great book by an admirable person.
