[@oumniasowon8039]

Lavendaire I love you so much and i can't describe my feelings right now after noticing that you liked my comment and 💕💕 The most beautiful and fascinating thing that really makes my bullet journal so so precious is your series of "Dream life" thank you for existing and inspiring me in such a beautiful way 💗

[@Luna_ellison]

OMG! I didn't know that study quill watches Aileen's vids. You two are literary twin sisters!!

[@lavendaire]

Spanish subtitles are available! Thank you to the kind contributor listen in the description 💕

[@sameermujawar1790]

You are copy of Barbie Doll. I was feeling that Goddess is preaching, reflecting positive stream from your shiny eyes. Thanks.

[@LiahYoo]

So many good books here! I do agree with the Power of Now being a hard read. It’s so deep that skim reading is nearly impossible! It’s really worth taking the time to read, reread and digest every single word 😌💚

[@sara70j53]

“ You Can Heal Your Life” an amazing book helping you to live calm and happy

[@popcornale6393]

I am 24 years and i am recently sticking to read books, i have learned a lot through channels like yours about books and inspirational persons, lifestyles and methods and i am proving my life, thank you. I am going to read these books

[@e.s.beards]

Alexandra Heights you should join bookstagram community on instagram too... there's loads of Great book inspo on there too 😁👌💗

[@RazeenRed]

A few books in English I enjoyed and would recommend... 1. 7 Habits of Highly Effective People 25th Anniversary edition - Steve Covey -This book has helpful principles and ideas to make you focused and productive 2. Influence 'The Power of Persuasion' - Robert Caldini - This book reminds you when to say no! 3. Autobiography of Malcolm X - Malcolm X and Alex Haley - This is a journey of discovery in self identity that needs to be read to the last page 4. Long Walk to Freedom - Nelson Mandela - This was a difficult read at the beginning but the book lays a foundation at the start that makes this a very important read reconciliation, identity, struggle, interpersonal relationships, principles and very interesting

[@Bruhmoment135]

Another book I would recommend for you all is: The 48 Laws of Power - Robert Greene

[@Puglifemama101]

Quitting it all and traveling the world to find myself seems like an amazing thing to do

[@NaturallyBrittany]

Yay I’ve been needing some new books to read! I’m finally in a place where I’m prioritizing personal development again and I was hoping to get some ideas! Thanks girl! Perfect timing. 💕👌🏻

[@e.s.beards]

[@poyummyyummy]

i think find book that will make you keep going back to reading and keep learn more

[@kade629]

Hi Aileen. Im tearing up just writing this because im so thankful for you and this list. I knew immediately that The Slight Edge was for me because all my life i have had such a challenge with being consistent. I start strong but never last. I am half way through this book and i can already see that this is going to impact the rest of my life big time. Its huge. So happy i found your channel. You have great content. Keep up the good work.

[@TheMagicCrafter]

Thank you, Aileen! I actually haven't read any of those yet! I could really use the money one, since I am *terrible* at asking for money for my services. Ugh. Could use some tidying up too!😅 *MY LIST:* 1. "Life's Golden Ticket" by Brendon Burchard (Great for reading if you feel stuck, depressed or are going through a tough time. I read it after a major breakup and it gave me an entirely new perspective on my life.) 2. "The 4 Hour Work Week" by Tim Ferriss (Not done reading this yet, but I've already quit my job and have boosted my brand & business since starting it. Great for entrepreneurs and people who aren't full of talk and empty of action.) 3. "Motivation Manifesto" by Brendon Burchard (The tone takes some getting used to, but it is a very powerful book. I suggest reading a passage from this each night before bed.)

[@lavendaire]

The Magic Crafter ooh!! Yeah I loved 4 hour workweek too. Brendan is great! He makes KZbin videos too that I’ve watched

[@TheMagicCrafter]

Agreed! Loved that one! ♥ And yes, his training courses are great as well. I highly recommend looking at his "Persuasion Mastery" course, if you have the chance. It is one of my favorites! Great for listening to in the morning when you run out of Lavendaire videos to watch. ;)

[@e.s.beards]

Ohhh I love new book ideas, I haven't read the Brendan one!! ... Thanks 👌

[@learnerdecuriousqueen3320]

@@TheMagicCrafter I'm grateful to you for listing these books. 😄

[@cocoowen9344]

I've just watched your series on planning your life while sitting outside with my summer journal and a pinned of strawberries. Your videos make a differance so never underestimate yourself!

[@e.s.beards]

Coco Owen that was a really helpful series 👌

[@jodieleigh6633]

I borrowed the life changing magic of tidying up and my room looks amazing! I donated five big bags of clothes and miscellaneous items to a charity, and I feel great xx it’s so organised and makes my feel lighter and happier :) I still live with my parents so my room was the only thing I could focus on, but I still feel accomplished! Can’t wait to read the other books, thanks!!

[@WildOnesYt]

Marie Kondo changed my life! I haven't read any of the other books, but I'll definitely check them out! I love your content it's always encouraging me to be better!

[@davidawilliams8603]

Wild Ones please read it, her MANGA book and a diary with years that you can fill in. I am doing the method and it is changing my relationship with things. Not to hoard my time and energy with my clothes, books and papers, etc but to view them in a BALANCED way, appreciating what we achieved together in the past, present and...if we decide to stay together in the future.

[@anisabegum1673]

*I recently read the 4 agreements as well! I love how he puts everything into very simple, kid-terms but so profound in its messaging. I need to read the power of now--it's been on my mind for a really long time now.*

[@learnerdecuriousqueen3320]

Thank you so much for sharing ! It feels good when someone else confirms the book is good. All the best.

[@Thefitty]

@@learnerdecuriousqueen3320 have you any books to recommend? Have you read The Four Agreements as well?

I have started to realise I'm worthy and I wan a spend time reading good self development books.. thanks for the recommendations

[@treetreetreetreetreetree]

I watched this video a year ago and now I've read 5/6 of those books. They changed my life as well

[@elenaodoricaguarinoni]

Thank you very much, Aileen. Well done and good luck! A hug from Venice (Italy).

[@taylorskyblue9413]

I think a way for you to grow your KZbin channel is through collabs, making yourself known, putting yourself out there, more marketing. You got this!! ❤️

[@BrianHutzellMusic]

Young Adult readers may already be familiar with Esther Earl’s “This Star Won’t Go Out,” but adults should be aware of it too. The book gathers the writings of a girl who died of cancer at age 16, along with stories and reminiscences from her friends and family. Earl came to mainstream public attention with the help of author/vlogger John Green, but don’t think this book is an award winner only because of his contribution. “This Star Won’t Go Out” is touching and inspiring!

[@YourGreenLady]

I have the hard copy of The Power of Now however I really enjoyed listening to his book on audible. His voice is so calming. I found that having the passages read to you was much easier to absorb and comprehend.

[@amynans6084]

I’ve been loving “The Curator’s Closet” by Anuschka Rees!! She gives you a step-by-step guide all about how to find your unique style & how to save money doing it!! She has given me a whole new relationship with shopping in general!! The book’s layout is very aesthetically pleasing-it reminds me of you!! Thanks for your great content!! 💕✨

[@JonesLeFae]

I will definitely have to check out The Slight Edge. I have always had that problem too of not being able to see projects through to completion. I have so many different interests and I often feel like I'm a bit ADD because I can never stick with any one thing for very long. Now I am starting a blog and KZbin channel and I have already invested a lot of time and money with very slow results, but I know if I stick with it, good things will happen. I have already read several of the other books and they are definitely great. I have The Power of Now on my shelf but haven't read it. Probably because my x-husband gave it to me so I was resistant to it. Trying to release resistance! Thanks for the great reviews!

[@mistice9843]

6 Beautiful books and 6 beautiful life concepts ✨ Thank you soo much for recommending them💕 Love youu💜

[@nearanfel]

Thanks for your new video! I am from Finland, and love you and Marie Kondo! I am so happy when I find your channel❤️

[@RachelSLee]

I do have my favorite books that I love and changed my life. I’ve been struggling my first few years on my online business but through these books, it keeps me motivated and staying positive in every step of the way that I’m going through as an Affiliate Marketer. I love your books collection, Aileen! Will definitely check them.

[@ramonaj.1828]

I love books too! I get motivation and inspiration from it. I am thinking of launching my own online business. Any advice for me, Rachel?

[@jaysantos6332]

I loved this video. I had watched some videos on KZbin where people recommended some of those books but it's interesting the way you talk about them and how they changed your life. Thanks for your video!

[@erinsymone1645]

The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up was a game changer for me. I read it in March and actually followed her steps and it's been months and the clutter has NOT resurfaced... and I haven't even had to try! I also really liked the Four Agreements, I just read that in June. I've been meaning to read The Power of Now for Years now lol! And lastly, I read Jen Sincero's You Are A Badass last year and I've been meaning to pick up her book on money ever since then... This video will be my inspiration to do so!

[@erinsymone1645]

Also the Slight Edge sounds amazing. I'll have to pick that up as well! So many books, so little time!

[@UzzielleTV]

You are such an inspiration; thanks for sharing. Reading has recently become my favorite thing to do, would add this list to my-to-read this quarter.

[@anitac.9411]

I read also "eat, love and pray", "the magic of tyding up" and "the slight edge". I love these books and I've read them several times. After reading "the magic of tyding up" my life changed in better, definitely! Less clutter more joy :-)

[@eierinjhoi]

Hello Aileen! I have visited your music channel before. I was surprised you have such a great voice! Keep singing

[@Dulcedeletii]

Books that changed my life: Anything by Pema Chodron (specifically when things fall apart & the places that scare you). Rising strong by Brene Brown. The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer. Sorry for the typos but my phone sucks, lol! These are holy grail for sure. Excited to check out your suggestions!

[@2p30fh9e3udid]

I sent all the books and writer names to my dad. I am curious about reading them now. I can't wait.

[@halliesim4789]

This is a great video! And you are a great KZbinr! You are just so inspirational to everyone!!!!

[@WendiBlum]

Hallie Sim I totally agree!!

[@sulovesbooks]

I started reading The Four Agreements because both you and Jenn Im recommended it and I could see why. I now keep urging all my family members and friends to read it too. One of the favorites I read last year was The Dance of Anger by Dr. Harriet Lerner. I don't know if someone as positive as you would need to read a book like that but it really helped me let go of the negative energy and the anger that I was holding onto at that point in my life. I still need to re-read it because this mind tends to forget and fall back into bad habits. Which is why I've already put the other books you have recommended about being in the present and how to be consistent in my to-read list too. 💕 Thanks for sharing this, Aileen. I hope you continue to be as positive and inspiring as you are now.

[@lavendaire]

Su Myintzu thanks for the rec! 💖

[@awoman5363]

The four agreements 😭😭😭😭 amaaaaazing !

[@itsrey3212]

I love Marie Kondo. I've been reading her things lately. She's definitely helped with not only my stuff but my decisions and my life in general. All the things you said about her book are true for me too!

[@e.s.beards]

It's Audrey that's so interesting because me also, I actually applied the kon Marie method to more than just clothes AND belongings👌

[@AlittlelostinReverie]

This video is the reason why I started to read The Life-changing Magic of Tidying Up and now my life has been better if I may say so. Thank you so much 🖤

[@ElliBea123]

The Power of Vulnerability by Brene Brown is an AMAZING listen! Definitely changed my perspective on a lot of things!

[@me-zs7tr]

I ordered The Power of Now last week and it's arriving today. Having read and heard enough praise for it, I'm excited to read it!

[@katrinamarie7732]

You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life by Jen Sincero is my first love. 💗💖

[@lavendaire]

Katrina Marie that was a great one too 💖

[@ashleighcowan9784]

The 5 second rule by Mel Robbins is great on audible! Super honest and to the point 👌🏻

[@Luna_ellison]

These books inspired me a lot. Aileen, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I was so, so, so, low in life and I gave up creating my own dream life. You changed me into a person that can manage to create my OWN DREAM LIFE. Thank you so much and once again, ILY SO MUCH!

[@e.s.beards]

I watched one of your videos where you talk about the life changing magic of tidying up and honestly it was such a game changer...!! I also just wanted to say Thank you so much for all the inspiring content, your positivity has inspired me to start my own KZbin channel a few weeks ago to try and share a little bit of positivity with my own community 😁💗👌⭐

[@mandylaplante1473]

Light is the new black on audible, I love it ! :) thank you for your videos, you are the best ❤❤❤

[@viaclocheton9465]

The subtle art of not giving a f**k!! Life changing!!

[@yokanmanju]

Thank you for sharing! I usually don’t read books much, but recently I’ve been in the mood to read so this really helped me. I read Konmari book long time ago in Japanese and loved it. I haven’t read books in English for a while but you inspired me to read again, thanks:)

[@mubeenamamodalydramsy9413]

What I Talk About When I Talk About Running - Haruki Murakami in Audiobook, love it !!

[@shibaninair]

Eat Pray Love is one of those rare book which when transformed into a movies still remained as intriguing and inspiring as the original work. Four agreement is one of the book which even my non-reader best friend loves, the best thing out this book is the simple and easy language while still being profound and really helpful. The Slight edge is something I am looking for to read. PS: love your work..Always like before watching the video.

[@elenakali9001]

I want the Eckhart Tolle book so bad! Also, I recommend Smarter, Faster, Better by Charles Duhigg. It deals with productivity with side inspiring stories to guide you on your way. It made a huge impact on changing my mindset honestly!

[@Dafnesharing]

Hi Ileen !! I'm from Italy, I always lived in Italy since I've been born apart from a month or two, when I've been abroad! The only place where I've lived out from Italy, is Germany! I've loved Germany so much, people there, are wonderful!!! I loved them so much!!!

[@nurimendoza5838]

when I read the power of now my mind was ABSOLUTELY BLOWN totally recommend!!

[@srijitachakraborty826]

Your videos have changed my perspective towards life and i feel happy and satisfied every single day. You are a great motivator and I always look up to you for getting new ideas. A big fan from India..

[@e.s.beards]

Srijita Chakraborty they have such positivity don't they! I love positive channels 💗🙌

[@srijitachakraborty826]

Indeed they do!

[@samakaeva]

I noticed that every summer I fall in love with a certain KZbin channel. This time it is definitely Lavendaire! I also like two of the books that you've mentioned - Eat, Pray, Love and Four Agreements. They're awesome! I'll read 'The Power of Now' and 'The Slight Edge'. Thanks for the recommendations. I can recommend Mark Manson's 'The Subtle Art of not giving a f*ck' - it was a game-changer for me. I cared so much for such an insignificant stuff, sometimes forgetting about the things that really matter. And this book really helps to overcome this foolish habit. P.S. I am not sure about money mindset. I guess I have issues with that. But all I want is to have enough money - not too much and not too little. Making lots of money seems a bit selfish to me. Like if you know how to spend it and spend it on something good, helpful, etc., then ok. But if you are just making money to make money to have more money - it is a sickness, in my opinion. Maybe I should read the book after all! And maybe it is an influence of one more book I am reading right now - 'To be or to have' (Erich Fromm)

[@MellowMathi]

What you said about that book "The Power of Now" is absolutely true 😘

[@erika91222]

What a coincidence, I just bought it a while ago but haven't start reading it. But now I'm very much looking forward to start

[@e.s.beards]

I got this for Christmas and I'm motivated to finally pick this up now!👌

[@livebreathsing9]

Another book I would definitely add to this list is "You Can be Happy No Matter What" by Richard Carlson. This was life changing for me. Great video!

[@noemiesauve9070]

I’m 16 and I’ve read slight edge and I am so grateful I discovered it so soon, I’m ready to start my life with ambitions and consistency

[@Likethespring]

Thank you ! Love all your suggestions. I read the Four Agreements. These are so important and empowering.

[@meringeorge756]

Deep Work by Cal Newport and Spark by John J. Ratey and Eric Hagerman are two books that I recently enjoyed very much. Not sure about the audiobook format but I enjoyed the paperback versions.

[@pamelakwong4717]

I read 3 out of 6 books! This is my Four Agreements affirmation: "Today I will be impeccable with my word, I will not take anything personally, I will not make any assumptions, and I am going to do my best." That book was definitely life changing! I recommend reading Conversations with Myself by Nelson Mandela. It is a biography with excerpts from Mandela's unpublished autobiography and transcribed recordings with Richard Stengel and Ahmed Kathrada. Through those resources, you get to see how Mandela holds onto hope and sees the light in the dark. I personally think he is the epitome of what you, Aileen, have shared with us. The book has left me speechless and I can only tell you to read it! Another recommendation is Wabi Sabi Welcome. The book has beautiful pictures along with articles describing the wabi sabi concept in four different places. It is a nice supplement book to read after The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up that furthermore tells us to appreciate what we have. My current read is Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert since it was on the list of books in the Artist of Life workbook. I randomly popped into my neighborhood used bookstore and got it for $4. I'm super happy!

[@ghofean9927]

i watched eat pray love as a movie .. now i really wanna read it as a book 😍

[@chandramorris536]

Ever since receiving from you, A New Earth and reading it with my boyfriend outloud, we've been meaning to pick up The Power Now. You are right they are dense books, but I think NOW is the time to finally pick up that book!

[@rafe9781]

affirmations only confirms lack of something at the subconscious level so how it can be a solution, it's like putting a band-aid on a broken leg

[@TheTokiofan101]

Sameeee

[@hikegardentravel6546]

Christina Marie I always feel the book is better, always. Except this book. I didn’t like the book at all but loved the movie.

[@joannemuturi_purposecultivator]

The movie does not give the book justice!

[@Miralci]

I've seen the movie and didn't like it, so I'm not very tempted to read the book. But I guess that it can be refreshing if you never encountered traveling to soul search. :)

[@ivanailic9571]

You're really good at explaining what the books are about and reviewing them :)

[@fatimazahrah3995]

This is such a great video Aileen! These books sound great, I might read them soon!
