I Appreciate your work

[@n.m.6823]

I have a great problem in not being able to finish books because I open in many of them at the same time.. I really need help or advice in organising our reading habits!

[@VentureAHighway]

thank you!

[@sarthakchauhan8386]

How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie is the book which can definitely change one as a person!

[@arijitmandal9592]

Atomic Habits ..." Small changes, remarkable results".

[@TheArtofImprovement]

I've read Man's Search for Meaning from your list and I would say it should be required reading for everybody.

[@ErmiYT]

Any successful channel has a good copy of it.

[@joshrauw545]

My top 10 (because I couldn't choose just 5): Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values - Robert Pirsig The Talent Code: Greatness isn't born, it's grown. Here's how. - Daniel Coyle The Prophet - Kahlil Gibran The Art of Possibility - Rosamund Stone Zander and Benjamin Zander The Music Lesson: A spiritual search for growth through music - Victor Wooten Siddhartha - Herman Hesse Letters to a Young Poet - Rainer Maria Rilke Either "Ishmael" or "The Story of B" - Daniel Quinn The Inner Game of Tennis - Tim Gallwey

[@romaindamase2988]

I'd add, thinking fast and slow.

[@helenchelmicka3028]

[@evolvefitness6483]

I'm currently reading Atomic Habits after watching one of your videos. I been watching one of your videos every day and love your content! Keep them coming. Two of my favourite books: The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy, and The Go Giver by Bob Burg.

[@richierich7843]

Great list of books...thank you...will definitely read..... Also...a couple of my favorites... The Alchemist, The Richest Man in Babylon, and Think and Grow Rich ( old standard, but still relevant)

[@lilypark2235]

12 rules for life is the best book I've ever read. It totally changed my life!

Me too. Been reading like crazy ever since I read that one

[@jessusbrown5248]

Like your way of talking, thanks

[@reemagurani1419]

Thanks mate

[@anthonysteven1481]

MINDSET is the book that changes my life! What an amazing book with fresh ideas on how to shift us from fixed mindset to growth mindset and this book is definitely worth reading.. And *Tools of Titans* is my next book to finish before this 2020 ends...

[@knicks2030]

Mindset was a great book. GTD, Total Money Makeover, and Essentialism would make my list too.

[@JaysonT1]

Suuuure. Are you rich yet? My guess is you're the book's price poorer than you were.

[@meghasheth2093]

'Who moved my cheese' ... it taught me art of agility and how to adapt and anticipate change.

[@sairarashid5800]

"The power of now" helped me more than any other book I have ever read.

[@TakeControl1337]

I have the audio version of this book and regularly relisten it. I am glad you like it as well.

[@RA-el6zj]

Me too! I was raised by people that live in fear of everything, so I was like that as well, always thinking about what could go wrong, and trying to prevent all kinds of bad possibility. This book was an eye-opener, and it took away my fear, by teaching me how ridiculous it is.

[@sdonna3882]

Haha same

[@tigerspaw]

I would add "the talent code" I can't recall the author and "The Art of Learning" by Joshua Waitzkin.

[@xsquivel]

At the beginning of the year, I had a list of books that I wanted to read. There were probably like 40 something books listed and A mans search for meaning had made it on my list. I was very happy when I saw that A mans search for meaning had made it in this video! Out of all the 40 something books, I choose to read that one first! 💗

[@luzmarinaquintero2681]

THANK YOU

[@askingshubham]

Best work

[@harmenbreedeveld8026]

Thanks for the video, I like the recommendations! You asked for books that changed my life. There are several ones, but many people have already made book suggestions. So I thought I would go a different route: I will suggest a movie, and a comic. Movie: Shawshank Redemption. If there is one movie that can give hope to any of us, it is this movie. It is full of lessons for life, about hardship, perseverance, friendship, and finding meaning and fellow humanity in the toughest of places. Comic: Astonishing X-men 68, by Marjorie Liu. The last comic of this run, and Liu chooses to further explore the obscure character of Warbird. She comes from a different world and is stranded on Earth. All she knows is how to be a warrior, but recently she has discovered her talents for art, for painting. And she wonders: who am I, who am I allowed to be? Universal questions, and many of the pages feel like a poem. An inspiration that I repeatedly read again.

[@musicnut1966]

I would add 1 that is very important to having more meaningful relationships, any kind. The 5 Love Languages explains how knowing how everyone shows love and needs others to show it back to them. I understand my family and friends so much more and know how to show them how much I care so that they really feel it.

[@dominicspatola1774]

_How to Win Friends and Influence People_ by Dale Carnegie is just _chef's kiss_

[@jcronin3155]

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k by Mark Manson. And it's not what you expect, it's a real truth teller!!

[@tomarcher3052]

I just finished that book and plan to reread it to cement some of the ideas. As you mention, the title is misleading. Book #3 on this video's list ("Man's Search for Meaning") broaches on one of Manson's key points regarding "fault vs. responsibility".

[@TakeControl1337]

It's a book that has its origin in blog posts. It has no exercises, but offers the following advice: Learn to be okay with being average. This book hasn't helped me at all, though it had some interesting stories that were quite insightful.

[@bijogxazindagi7545]

overrated book

[@jcronin3155]

@@bijogxazindagi7545 If you dislike hearing the truth then maybe it is.

[@JaysonT1]

Mark Manson is fantastic! Someone finally has the balls to tell people the truth instead of what they want to hear.

[@Luka_menorykee]

Gordon Neufeld & Gabor Mate "Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers" Changed my whole world, worldview, understanding of myself as a person, understanding of my parents, society, everything. Made me cry a few times and made me a better father and a better person. Although it tries to push religion and tradition (the same bullshit as Jordan Peterson) if you can see through those parts (the same goes for 12 Rules for Life) it's an incredibly valuable book.

[@jeffreyswiderski]

I purchased 3 of these books! Loved all of them!

[@mothalalyaslam]

Which is the best app to read books?

[@stephanied5668]

Matter and Memory by Henri Bergson; The Wisdom of Insecurity by Alan Watts; Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse; Walking Meditation by Thich Nhat Hanh; Man & People by Jose Ortega y Gasset. These are really good.

[@kirabui5812]

[@palestine4evr]

The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwarts . Great Book.

[@HeretikTG]

This would be my Top 5: -The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan -The Incerto Series by Nassim Nicolas Taleb (Technically a series of books) -The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason -Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss -Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki Although I dislike the last one by now, it started everything so it deserves a place. The rest helped me going from more abstract ideas (The first) to solve specific problems (The fourth), in that order.

[@AtchaarMusic]

1. The Bible 2. School of money by Emmanuel Olumide 3. Spirit Soul and body by Andrew Womack 4. Dopamine nation by Anna lembke 5. And then apply the Bible verse that says. Don’t be hearer but a doer of the word. Because reading can only give you information and if that information isn’t implemented it remains random information.

[@poelomokgotho8127]

Currently reading quiet by Susan Cain ♥️

[@pascal6387]

Factfullnes by Hans Rosling. It illustrates that many people think that the world is an awful place and that things get even worse although there are many development's that show the exact opposite. A nice book to think more positive about the world and understand it a bit better (and maybe to get motivated for even helping this progress to continue).

This book is so bad, I don't understand why people are reading it.

[@ffeff8353]

From what you say, "Talent is Overrated" is demonstrably untrue. I would agree that talent alone won't get you very far and that work and practice are essential, but saying that innate gifts don't exist is beyond ludicrous.

Love your work #Subscribed. "Ishmael by Daniel Quinn" - a masterpiece dissecting the modern world, human nature, and ecology in one riveting novel...it also has two offshoots, although not a trilogy, some things need to be said again and again and again. Each giving a unique perspective on how sometimes a simple story is SO complicated, it has many many facets and angles.

I'm sorry, but talent definitely has a huge impact on your ability to be successful in any one field. It might not be the only factor, hard work ABSOLUTELY plays a role. But it's like people racing towards a specific goal, let's say the goal is to be the best basketball player in the world. LeBron James has the fastest car known to man, and you have a Toyota Prius. You both, from birth, head toward this goal. LeBron is where he is now, and you might make it to play high level college basketball.
