The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss
This step-by-step guide to luxury lifestyle design teaches how Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and 4 hours per week.
Devon’s Thoughts: There was a lot of controversy when this book first came out because people thought the idea of working just 4 hours a week was ridiculous.
I’m not here to make the argument that you can (or can’t) work a 4-hour week but I will say that taking the information in this book to heart will force you to have a paradigm shift.
I guess a simple way of putting it is to say… this book has great ideas on how you can think outside the box and “hack” life.
#4: Radical Forgiveness by Colin Tipping
In Radical Forgiveness, readers join Colin for step-by-step instruction in what begins as a healing process and culminates in a paradigm-shifting path to awakening.
“Radical Forgiveness is much more than the mere letting go of the past,” writes Colin. “It is the key to creating the life that we want and the world that we want.”
Devon’s Thoughts: This book was so good that I actually made an entire blog post about it: devonbrown.com/forgive-and-le...
The forgiveness formula in this book resonated with me so much, that I ended up seeking out the author just to find out if he had any in-person workshops I could attend. He did… I went… and to say the event was life-changing would be an understatement.
#3: The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber
Summary (courtesy of Amazon.com):
In the E-Myth, Michael Gerber dispels the myths surrounding starting your own business and shows how commonplace assumptions can get in the way of running a business.
Gerber draws the vital, often overlooked distinction between working on your business and working in your business.
Devon’s Thoughts: Within 5 minutes of having the audio-book in my CD player, I thought to myself: “Holy crap! No wonder all of my entrepreneur friends have been telling me to check out the E-Myth”. If you’re an entrepreneur, and you don’t read the E-Myth Revisited… then something is seriously wrong with you.
#2: The Go-Giver by Bob Burg & John David Mann
Summary (courtesy of Amazon.com):
The Go-Giver tells the story of an ambitious young man named Joe who yearns for success. Joe finds a mentor who introduces him to a series of “go-givers" who, together, teach Joe the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success and help him open himself up to the power of giving.
Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving-putting others’ interests first and continually adding value to their lives-ultimately leads to unexpected returns.
Devon’s Thoughts: This book is probably the one I’ve recommended the most over the years.
Applying the central idea of this book to my life and my business has yielded HUGE dividends.
#1: Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz
Summary (courtesy of Amazon.com):
Maltz was the first researcher and author to explain how the self-image (a term he popularized) has complete control over an individual’s ability to achieve (or fail to achieve) any goal. He developed techniques for improving and managing self-image-visualization, mental rehearsal, relaxation-which have informed and inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than fifty years.
Devon’s Thoughts:
Think of this book as the genesis of the modern day personal development industry. The language from the original book may be a little outdated (as it was written in 1960), so I recommend the updated audio-book version by a famous marketer named Dan Kennedy.
Its’ so good that I’ve actually listened to the unabridged 12-hour version of this audio… twice!
