As a voracious reader if you were to ask me what my favorite book is I couldn’t answer. It’s an impossible question for me. But I can tell you the books that have changed who I am more than any others.
These books have changed my life. They changed the way I see the world. And they have made me into a better person.
These are some of the few books that I continue to read over and over because each time I learn, improve, and become a better version of myself. Each time.
Each book is so different.
Mans Search for Meaning touches me deeply and always brings a profound gratitude for the life I have. It also reminds me of the power of my mind and thoughts. It has shaped the way I allow myself to think.
Big Magic speaks to my soul. It helps release me from a fear that I didn’t even realize was holding me back. I love to listen to this book. Something about the way Elizabeth Gilbert narrates it makes listening to it feel like a nice warm bath. It is soothing. I am always sad when it ends. Sometimes I start it over after just finishing it.
The Compound Effect is like medicine to me. I know that if I implemented this book 100% in my life I would be more successful. It’s hard though. This is like the book that I know I need to read but I have to make myself. It has changed me and I still regularly listen to it. But each time I usually have to make myself. Make yourself read this whole book and implement at least one thing from it into your life.
I have read/listened to these books so many times I’ve lost count.
Please read them at least once.
