Outwitting the Devil By: Napoleon Hill


10713286.



Goodreads

Great book about overcoming fears and anchors that hold you back in life.

Talks about what you should not do when accomplishing success.

I believe that the devil didn't actually speak with Hill, but I feel like Hill was smart in marketing and structuring the book in this way, applying the knowledge and wisdom he took from his life of interviewing successful people.

The Millionaire Next Door By: Thomas J. Stanley & William D. Danko


998.

★★★★☆

Goodreads

Very informative book.

It's all about the study of the millionaire's mind.

They have a lot of interesting statistics in the book too.

The only thing I didn't like was that it drags on a lot and is very repetitive.

Today Matters By: John C. Maxwell


389921.

★★★★☆

Goodreads

"Money doesn't change men, it merely unmasks them. If a man is naturally selfish or arrogant or greedy, the money brings that out, that's all.” - Henry Ford

Sacrifice now, for more options later, money may not bring happiness but it does bring options.

This book is about having value, prioritizing, and practicing them. Really enjoyed this book.

The Richest Man in Babylon By: George S. Clason


1052.

★★★

Goodreads

Classic values and lessons of dealing with money and persistence.

Always set aside at least 10% of what you made and pay yourself.

Never have money idle, make sure you're making investments to grow the existing money. Yet still enjoy life and treat yourself.

What the Dog Saw By: Malcolm Gladwell


What the Dog Saw and Other Adventures.
★★

Goodreads

This book was a little difficult to read since it didn't have an overall purpose, it was just study after study, which was interesting but you couldn't read it for hours.

And the studies weren't very interesting either, they were just okay.
