Top Self Improvement Books

Quick note on the top self improvement books I've read.

How to win friends and influence people -Dale Carnegie

This book had the most impact to the way I approach everything in my life. Read at an early age, young and stupid, gave me a lot of insight into how people really work and how to get what you want out of people. The way the information is delivered is profound. Written in the early 1900's, it really proves how people never change.

Rish Dad Poor Dad -Robert Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter

Learning the mindset you need to become the "Rich Dad" was intriguing to me and was a wake up call for me.

Have you read these?
What are your top self improvement books? And why?

One book I've read is the book by Frank Bettger title "How I Raised Myself from Failure to Success in Selling". I've learned so many strategies and how each would result if we just keep the initiative and never give up.

I've also read Rich Dad Poor Dad, that is an incredible book, a must read.

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill Also to go along with that I suggest

YouTube - Napoleon Hill talks about his meeting...

If you listen to the words and understand
them, there is a real powerful message in this video. WOW

Jack Canfiled's The Success Principles, which I like as much as my own book Sixty Seconds To Success, so that is saying something. Thanks, Ed.

?

That single book genuinely changed me and believe a lot of people are paying lip service when they say such things, but I definitely changed the way I interacted with people upon reading that book.

'Looking Out For #1' and 'Winning Through Intimidation' by Robert Ringer. The first, for its insight into people's personalities and motivations, and the confirmation that you need to take care of yourself if you want to take care of others. The second, for its insights into sales.

Napoleon Hill's Think And Grow Rich is the CLASSIC!

Definitely Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz and Maximum Achievement by Brian Tracy.
