Tribes by Seth Godin
Tribes helped my business turn a complete 180 degrees. I found permission to be a leader and guide others in a way that was authentic to ME. I’m still wondering why they don’t teach this stuff in schools at a younger age?!
The New Rules of Marketing & PR (3rd edition) by David Meerman Scott
A must-read for those that don’t understand what exactly is going on with social media and the changes that are turning journalism on its head. It also tells you why breaking down the walls of your business are your only way to grow bigger and better.
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
Leave all the business how-to for the other books and let this book be your inner guide to why certain people are hugely successful and feel fulfilled in life. A true work of art. This book allowed me to stop guessing if I was doing the right thing in business and understand how success has less to do with your circumstances and more to do with how you think.
The Fire Starter Sessions by Danielle Laporte
Break the mold on how you are supposed to become successful. Find your inner goddess and let her shine! Discover how your creativity is your business. I must point out that I am in the middle of this book and have not finished it yet, but so far I like her approach to creative thinking and her “freeing” style.
Changes That Heal by Dr. Henry Cloud
This book literally started to change by life from the inside out. It makes you understand why what happened in your past does not have to determine your future and how taking responsibility is not only designed by God, but is essential in creating healthy relationships.
Do The Work by Steven Pressfield
For about two years I was in analysis paralysis mode; constantly consuming books, articles, programs and such to grow my business, but kept playing a small game by not implementing what I was learning. Steven talks about just getting it done. The best part is that this is one of the fastest books to read and remember to hold a highlighter when you read this–you will be taking notes.
Now in the comments below I want to hear what business books have made an impact in your life. I can’t wait to see what you have read (and get some great recommendations too)!
