Any good?

I've read Trust Me I'm Lying, haven't read any of his other books yet.

Haven't read trust me I'm lying or growth hacker. I read obstacle is the way awhile back. It was a great book. I'm liking his new book so far.

The Consulting Bible by Alan Weiss
I've gone to the first two consulting conferences - completely worth it. Next one's in Chicago.

I have come to a crossroad, and re-read "Man's Search for Meaning", the later version that goes into logotherapy. Serious stuff, so of course my mind goes to the scene in The Princess Bride, where Inigo "goes back to the beginning". (I always identify with the wrong character).

I'm reading Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda. It's the only book Steve Jobs downloaded onto his iPad. He read it once a year, every year and gave a copy to every Apple employee.

Just read The E-Myth and How to Win Friends and Influence People. Both very, very useful. I've start to apply Carnegie's philosophy in my daily life, and I've filed the knowledge from E-Myth away into my brain for future use (I start building fastlane stuff in September).

Next up is Why it Sells, SPIN Selling, and Rainmaker.

Can anyone recommend me a book that is similar to How to Win Friends And Influence People, but on a more complex scale?

Really enjoyed the book and has a ton of good bits, but I'm wishing there was more to it.Thanks!

Did you read the e-myth or the e-myth revisited?

It was E-Myth Revisited.
It is quite a good read I've just read it myself. Made me realise I was running my business through the eyes of a technician and not a businessman. I owned a job not a business. Things are changing though.

"Built to Sell" is good that way too.

Tell me how Art of the Deal was because I could only get half way through it.The whole book looked like he was just talking about his daily routine.

I've read it...

You're right it talks about his daily routine but in there are some good pieces of advice, definitely worth a read, but yeah, nothing ground breaking.
