3 books that can change your life

I think these three definitely worth reading.

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;

Know what “real asset” is (Riches buy assets, poor buy liabilities)
Difference between in the way rich and poor think
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 become mentally strong: Tips and techniques

1. Never ever get uncomfortable. If you are uncomfortable, it means there is something you fear from. Don’t let fear ruling you! You will see they don’t even exist. 2. Fake it till you make it. Perception beats reality. Before I start doing something challenging, this is simply what I do. If the goal is too keep yourself mentally strong, don’t hesitate to believe you are. I bet it works. 3. Say it out loud! Say what you want out loud. It is that much simple to keep yourself motivated and so mentally strong. 4. Try to define actions reversely. Maybe you call yourself a procrastinator or late doer. This is not the true way of defining your actions. Approach from the different perspective and say you are able to do it such quick that you don’t even need to start so early. 5. Act of kindness. I think act of kindness interestingly and impressively increases the level of happiness. You should also try. 6. Try to spend time with motivated people. In ...

How can you improve your life?

The 18 unconventional ways to elevate your consciousness, expand your influence and ultimately improve your life. Have sex. There's something unflinchingly "human” about a sexual experience. It builds something within you that connects deeply to nature. A confidence is built. From a person who went stretches- sometimes over a year- without having sex due to deeply rooted sexual anxieties (fear of climaxing too quick, that I wasn't “good enough” in bed, distaste of one-night-encounters etc) rediscovering the feeling you get in your life while being sexually active has really made a positive impact. Introduce yourself to anyone and everyone. Human beings are social creatures by nature. With that in mind, it is imperative to make your presence known in any room you're in. Don't you hate that feeling when you're at a party or gathering, you go there with a friend and the friend doesn't introduce you to anyone? It sucks. Extreme responsibility is needed on y...

How reading can help you succeed in life.

He makes time for it. Buffet once gave students in an investing class at Columbia University the following advice: "Read 500 pages like this every day," Buffett said to the students, while reaching toward a stack of manuals and papers. "That's how knowledge works. It builds up, like compound interest. All of you can do it, but I guarantee not many of you will do it." Well, we can all build up that knowledge. But are we really doing it? Warren Buffett says, “I just sit in my office and read all day.” What does that mean? He estimates that he spends 80% of his working day reading and thinking. This leads to what is known as the Buffet Formula: “Going to bed smarter than you woke up.” Why is that so important? We’ve been recording knowledge in books for a long time. That means there’s not a lot that’s new; it’s just recycled old knowledge. Odds are that no matter what you’re working on, someone somewhere, who is smarter than you, has...
