The power of reading books proven by my experience.
Do you read books?
Well, during the past two years I developed the habit of reading motivational books; more especially on the entrepreneurial sector. Though I haven’t read much, I am sure the teachings in these books have an influence on all my past and future successes.
Reading these books didn’t only change the way I see life, but also gave me a clear picture of what plans are and how I could lay down my own blueprints of building my never-ending desires to attain my ultimate goals.
I started reading motivational books back in 2006! And today, I’ve began to realized that my life has completely changed. I now picture this world from a new angle. Above all, I also rejoice the bounty of building my own businesses all from what I learned.
Though I recently joined the crowed, I was thinking it will be of great impact to so many souls if I could just share with you and the rest of my website visitors the power of reading these books.
“I believe; the more you read, the more you acquire an everlasting knowledge.“
See this:
In the hierarchy of my most enjoyed books, I think Robert T. Kiyosaki won the race. In his book Rich Dad Poor Dad, I learned much more than I could ever express! It was in his book that I learned not to ever work for Money.
The second book I always enjoy reading and still keep as my hand book is the Stephen R. Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. From this book, I learned all the seven habits that makeup a responsible man and till today, I still practice them.
That book is a never ending blessing to my life as it gives me a perfect understanding of life and all the controls one has over his worldly choices.
Alright, I’ll list the rest of the books as a collection of my third most enjoyed books because none of them could be rated fourth.
1. Think & Grow Rich – by Napoleon Hill
2. How To Win Friends & Influence People – by Daniel Carnegie
3. What The Rich Invest in… – by Robert Kiyosaki
4. The Cash Flow Quadrant – by Robert Kiyosaki
5. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens – by Sean Covey.
Well, thats all I’ve read for now. But, would you mind sharing with me and the rest of my blog readers the best motivational books you’ve read and how we could benefit from them?
I wait for your response.

A hand to guide me by Denzel washington
Hello Ahmad, I thougth you wanted to say “imagine if everyone were readers”. Well, knowledge is power. “Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold”(Proverbs 8 vs 10).
These words are found in the most inspiring book I’ve ever read, that same book I recommend; The HOLY BIBLE.
WOW!I just added “The 8th Habit” and “Failing Forward” to my wish list.
