Just got back home for a one day trip to DC where I met up with Anik and the Lurn team. We got some EXCITING stuff planned for the fall!
One of the BIGGEST keys to becoming a self made millionaire is developing the habit of reading EVERYDAY.
Turn off the idiot box for 1 hr a day and read a book that will help take your thinking to the next level and develop the skills you need to get rich.
There’s a saying (I don’t know who said this) : “Rich people have their books, and poor people have their television.”
Rich and highly successful people are voracious readers. They’re continually upgrading their skills and always learning more and more.
If you want to be rich you need to start doing the same.
Here’s 5 books that have completely changed my life. I read all these books back when I was dead broke, and they’re a BIG reason I’ve achieved what I have achieved today. (comment and tell me what you think)
Master Key to Riches and Rich Dad and Poor Dad I’ve read. Both awesome books. “How to Win Friends and Influence People” is an awesome book as well.
Did I miss something or did you only mention 4 books though?
Some great books, indeed! I haven’t read any of them, although I read another of Kiyosakis books (can’t remember the name, but similar ideas). Thanks for the list, I’m an avid reader and can’t believe I haven’t heard of 4 of these!
Totally agree with the book list.
I think the first 5 books by Robert Kiyosaki give a good insight into a wealthy mindset and what you need to do to move from employee to business owner / investor.
For an inspirational but common sense approach to life and business I would recommend anything by Jim Rohn.
Thanks Amit,
EXCELLENT Video.
Very good books and I did read several books for Napolean Hill and I concor that it is fascinating to read his books. Also I have read some part of Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad and Poor Dad, Thank you for the rest of the 5 and I will definitley check them out.
God Bless

Hey Amit bhai, How are you doing? love your videos! Could you please tell us which book to read first… I have gone ahead & ordered all the books just now
@ Paul Piotrowski, hey there….
Amit mentioned 5 books, I think you have missed one the first one…
Tested Advertising Methods, by John Caples…
Cheers,

Amit,
Thanks for such a GREAT post. I’ve read a couple of the books you mention and they were invaluable. I will definitely pick up the others you recommend. Additionally, I like The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. What I was able to take away from it was that individuals get what they focus on, what they put out. This is pretty consistent with Hill’s positive mental attitude and other ways of being that can truly help you achieve your dreams.
Hi Amit,
Thanks for the list. I like how it covers a wide range of topics from copy writing to mindset to people skills. It’s SOOOO true that people skills are 110% needed to be successful. Even though some people may think, you don’t have to deal with people when you work online, no man is an island. Thanks so much for sharing. Valuable post. Looking forward to the next one.
Onwards and Upwards,
-Anthony
PS. Have you tried the “mind aerobics” program Anik raves about?
Hey Anthony I use something even better: check out http://centerpointe.com
Amit,
I got four of those five books. I need to get Giblin book.
I recommend in addition to Hill books, Dale carnegie books also.
Kiyosaki is real estate guy and he recommends actually buying houses. If your rent is more than your mortgage etc that is positive cashflow, in addition to Appreciation. That is what I remember. I need to brush up a little, to check that.
Anyway another nice video. Are you going to tell us PPC stuff also in these videos?
Thanks.
Good books.
The sad thing is that most will read a book and treat it as throwaway entertainment. In through the eyes and out of the mind soon after.
The successful individuals are those who actively look for techniques/principles in the book and apply them in their own lives.
If you just take ONE thing from each book you read (ok, the bad books are excluded from this) and apply it in your life, you’ll experience a great personal transformation too.
