What's the best book on inspiration you've ever read?

    Not in the genre you are looking for, and I do not agree fully with her entire philosophy, but if you want to read a good book from which you can draw the mindset of self-empowerment and transfer that feeling into motivation and self confidence into your own life and endeavors, much can be gained from Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.

    Of course, it varies to print/page size, but my copy is pushing 1400 pages, so it is not for the faint hearted or for those who do not enjoy reading.

      At the risk of sounding too cliche, the best book I've read on inspiration is The Bible.

      There are so many words of wisdom in there for every part of your life and so many instances of the weak and forlorn conquering insurmountable obstacles with a little bit of faith, die hard perseverance and steadfastness.

      I can't read those without walking away energized, motivated and inspired.

      Many thanks for the list.
