The Bible – Forty Authors
“Before you dismiss this as a “religious” answer, consider that the Bible is regarded as the top best-selling and most widely distributed book ever. It outlines the principles of a successful and prosperous life, issues warnings against downfall, and beautifully captures stories of triumph and victory against all odds—lessons applicable to entrepreneurs and business owners.
The book is simple enough for children to understand, yet deep enough for philosophers to research and discuss for centuries. It completely changed my perspective and trajectory of life, and continues to refine my thinking and mindset—whether I’m looking at product development, sales, marketing, customer service, leadership or culture, or reflecting on the virtues of purpose, stewardship and integrity. The more I read it, the more I fall in love with it.”
It’s Your Time: Activate Your Faith, Achieve Your Dreams, and Increase in God’s Favor – Joel Osteen

Awaken the Giant Within – Tony Robbins
Tony Robbins is NOT your Guru …. but challenges your thinking and made me DIG DEEP to take control of my thoughts and my actions. This was a tough, long, strenuous read.. but well worth it!
