3 books that can change your life

3 books that can change your life


I think these three definitely worth reading.
  1. Rich Dad Poor Dad (About Money and Personal Finance): I read this book three years ago and whenever I find some free time I try to revise the learnings from this book. This book was an eye opener for me. This book taught what real assets are and how riches buy assets to maximizes their wealth and how poor and mediocre people buy/invest in liabilities that make them more poorer. TLDR; This book would teach you following;
    1. Know what “real asset” is (Riches buy assets, poor buy liabilities)
    2. Difference between in the way rich and poor think
    3. Smart tips on money management
  • You can Win by Shiv Khera (About Life and habits ): The key to happiness is not only money. This are not my words. This book explains this very well. I think every human being should read this book at least once. I’ve read this book more than 6 times I don’t bore because it is not a book- it is a collection of educational and motivational stories. This book is so popular and had been translated into many languages. It tells to have a positive approach and attitude in life. Is the book "You Can Win" by Shiv Khera worth the read?
  • High Output Management (About management): Another amazing book. I finished reading this book last month. The book is very popular in Silicon Valley. It’s a crash course for middle managers by former Intel CEO Andy Grove. Some key learnings you can get from this book-
    • How everything can be modeled as a process.
    • How to focus on measurable indicators of Output.
    • How to use leverage to increase productivity and efficiency etc.
Thanks for reading.

How to Read the Right Way: A Complete Guide

The nature of books has evolved. Society and technology have changed. Forcibly, our approach to reading has taken on new forms to accommodate a different way of life. The question is: For better or worse? Although books give us new ideas, spark discussions, and explore topics in detail, the same information can be delivered in a variety of formats. When it comes to exactly  how  we should absorbing books, the debate rages on. Let’s take a look. The Effectiveness of Speed Reading Since the 1950s, speed reading has been touted as an effective way to get through reading material quickly. Scientists, psychologists, and teachers have come up with methods to increase reading speed, whether through manual tools or visual movements. At the World Championship Speed Reading Competition, top contestants can reach 1,000 to 2,000 words per minute. Six-time champion Anne Jones reached 4,200 words per minute at one point. Those rates seem phenomenal compared to the  ...

I'm 25 years old and I want to become a millionaire by 35. How do I do this?

A bit of simple advice that works for any age. Copy what millionaires do. I’ve studied over 40 millionaires and finally found out their secret to wealth. It took me a long time to piece together the puzzle, but I’ve finally figured it out. Here’s the golden question: What do Elon Musk, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Mark Cuban, and Tonny Robbins have in common? Besides the mulah...they all  read . Yep - reading. Don’t believe me? Let one of the most successful and admired entrepreneurs tell you... Musk built four multibillion-dollar companies by his mid-40s -- in four separate fields (energy, software, transportation and aerospace). How is that possible?  Because he reads. SpaceX co-founder, Jim Cantrell, mentions Elon Musk’s passion for reading, He'd been borrowing all my college textbooks on rocketry and propulsion. You know, whenever anybody asks Elon how he learned to build rockets, he says, 'I read books.' Well, it's true. [...

There Are Two Ways to Read — One Is Useless

Reading is telepathy, and a book is the most powerful technology invented. Homer, Shakespeare, Voltaire, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Woolf, Hemingway — these are names without a living body. We can’t talk to them, nor touch them, but their thoughts are immortalized through the written word. Aristotle’s logic, Kepler’s astronomy, Newton’s physics, Darwin’s biology, Wittgenstein's philosophy — these are memes without living originators. They no longer champion their ideas, and yet, we still talk about them. Without books, humans would never have escaped the boundaries of space and time. Each new generation would have had to learn the realities of life for themselves rather having the luxury to build on the past; knowledge accumulation would have quickly dimmed towards an asymptote. Everything that we value in the modern world has its root in invention of writing. Everything that we have accomplished has come from reading. Even on an individual level, one of the most effective way...
