I want to give shout outs to some of the books I owe so much of my freedom and space to do things I like, including gaming or doing any time waster of my choosing.
- The 4 Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris
This book is a must read, it may not solve your problems, but at least will inspire you to think on your own alternatives that may apply to your personal life.
- Do You! by Russell Simmons
This guy is responsible for some of the biggest hip hop names on the industry. I'm not a big fan of hip hop in general but I do admire hard work anywhere and this man shows you what's possible by following the right principles.
- How To Win Friends And Influence People by Dale Carnegie
The title may sound a little dumb, and even the way the ideas are presented too, but the ideas themselves are not dumb by any means. There is no doubt a lot of individuals definitely lack people skills, and considering it is probably the most important skill you can have, it is crucial for everyone to understand these basic principles.
- Minimalism by The Minimalists
Not the best read, but it definitely brings an important point that will save you time, money, and headaches. In a capitalist economy it may not be easy to go extreme about this, but it is definitely easy to go extreme on the bad end, and this book will call you on it. It is a concept I personally discovered, but now we have books about it, so you may as well take advantage of that.
- Pre-Suation by Cialdini
These concepts may sound repetitive and obnoxious to those in the marketing business as they probably heard them a million times. However with a little twist of your own you can use many of these ideas in your personal life, specially if you live close to a city with high profile people. There are other books like it, but this is the most updated one I've seen.
- The Art Of The Deal by Donald Trump
I do not endorse Trump in any way politically, but there is no doubt he knows how to persuade and influence others. This book is not about that specifically, but it shows you the importance of networking and the magnitude of how relevant it is to be on top of those connections at all times.
- The Master Key System by Charles Haanel
The biggest waste of time is getting lost in your own thoughts, being able to control them is with no doubt the biggest and most important factor in success, and Charles Haanel definitely shows you how to get a massive upper hand.
I live close to L.A. so I do get to meet celebs and really all kinds of people when I head out, I had definitely do some things people would be extremely jealous about and some that maybe not so much.
Those opportunities are available to everyone and for some reason I feel responsible to share the ideas that make them obtainable.
I have worked in very insignificant jobs, earning very little money, become overweight, and even with an accent barrier, I was still able to do those amazing things that you would consider exclusive to the rich and famous, so there is no excuse for anyone to not do the same.
Also another tip, do not share information of your accomplishments as that will determine how much access you can have to exclusive circles. For example if you are in a VS show, hanging out with SI Swimsuit people or have Playmates and Penthouse friends. That is not something to brag about, just shut it, no one needs to know. The same goes with financial accomplishments and the like.
However I have to say that the most important factor that would impact your life overall are your own decisions. Much more significantly than even hard work and time management.
These decisions can basically get narrowed down into choosing what you read, what you watch, what you listen to, who you hang out with, who you work with, and where you live.
Those are the most important decisions you'll always be making and will impact your life in all sort of ways that nothing else will.
If you have read any other books that have personally helped you, of course feel free to share them too, as the list of good books out there is basically endless.
Cheers.
