Self-Improvement Books

[watashinoocha]

Any recommendation ? i just finished reading 7th habit by stephen covey

 

[Parka]

Napoleon Hill's Laws of Success.

Most other self-help books are based on on stuff written there, including the one you mentioned.

 

[gaoxiong82]

Yea, Napoleon Hill is good. I'm almost done with Think and Grow Rich. Teaches a lot about fundamental disciplines to take on.

 

[watashinoocha]

Well there's a reason why it have been around for more than 50 years now i guess

Try this:
Happiness: A guide to developing life's most important skill
by Matthieu Ricard.

Ricard is a buddhist monk. He's 'scientifically tested' to be the happiest person. Learn from the best. Have a read.

 

[NitrousExpress]

The science of getting rich
Think and grow rich
The strangest secret in the world
The secret

The above 4 books share almost the same common idea, but the authors phrased them differently.

And "Bounce" by Matthew Syed.. my personal favourite that I wished I had read 10 years ago.

Anyone read Make Your Money Work for You by Keon Chee and Ben Fok? I'm considering of getting it..

 

[booklover]

Hmm how about Self-Improvement 101: What every leader needs to know? Or Money Matters:It's either working for you or some! William Thomason's Make money work foryou-instead of you working for it is not bad too You can find these books easily online like amazon and acmamall.com

Any recommended books for ecommerce?

Just read 2 chapters of The four agreements and gave up.

The author seems to be high on drugs (adding a lot of his glossary of terms) and nothing written seems to be fact/evidence based.
