Business Insider has summarized 50 of the most influential business books ever written
1. I feel TMF should have been one of these 50 books.
2. If I had to describe the TMF in one or two big sentence, it would say, " If your new to the Entrepreneur world, read the whole damb book." How would you guys describe the TMF in one or two sentences.
3. Some of these books shouldn't be read. For example I remember a long time ago, I was reading Think and grow rich, great book for it's time, I learned some good things from it, then it got to that part, the part that my reality rejected everything that was said, I think the person that wrote "the secret" just really rewrote and remarketed that stuff from Think and grow rich, 80% good and 20% dangerous if you believe it. The universe will not provide, gods not going to help or hurt, the universe is a system, the earth rotates, things are born, things die, your choice of actions + the wind of infinite factors, gives you the deserved reaction. It won't help or hurt you, you understand the system and play it to the best of your ability.
4. To my main point, I always hear people saying you should read a lot of books, I don't agree with that at all, majority of the books out there are made to be sold, knowledge that can be had by reading 30 pages, is turned into 300 pages, mindless and useless filler, 80 to 90% of everything you read in a book is filler, or knowledge you will never use and forget in a year. There are a few books, that are the exception.
Filler is death, because it takes away time from your life, that you could have used to do something else, like having a life, imagining, thinking and creating. There are a lot of book services, where they take a 300 page book and turn it into 10, 20, 30 pages. Find one of these services, buy what they wrote up for a few books you recently read, then read them, after that ask your self, did you learn everything from reading this summary, that you would have, when you read the whole book, if so then you found your self a good service, if it's really good let us know about it. Cut the filler out and fill that time with something that can give you even more free time.
