Here’s a short list of books I find valuable or have helped me.
- The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho – I’ve recommended this book to some of my friends and it’s changed their life. It’s an easy read and so entertaining it’s ridiculous. When you’re feeling stuck in life it might give you the answer and lead you in the right direction.
- The Secret by Rhonda Byrne – I can say unbelievable things happened when I used the methods described in this book. Unfortunately, some people believe it’s total nonsense but when your experiences speak for themselves who cares? That by itself provides enough value for me. This book gave me a positive outlook on the events in my life and helped me realize I have more power over the immediate world around me than I thought.
- Think & Grow Rich (Revised & Updated for the 21st Century) by Napoleon Hill – The stories and methods in this book inspired me to keep going even when the odds were stacked against me, among other things. There’s a story of a deaf boy that you shouldn’t miss either.
- Self Reliance (an easy-to-read translated version) by Ralph Waldo Emerson – Growing up, I struggled to trust myself. I let other people tell me who to be, how to act, and what to think. After I learned to trust my own experiences over the experiences of others I found this gem which helped me along even further.
