A man only learns in two ways, one by reading, and the other by association with smarter people ~ Will Rogers.
Are You A Geek Like Me?
I'm going to talk something really different today and talk about Books. I never was a book reader when growing up until I seen a video by Jim Rohn in the late 90's.
Who was Jim Rohn? If you don't know, no worries. He was a popular motivational speaker and if you want to look him up, you can here and/or Youtube. 👨🏻🏫
He once stated that “Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.”... that knowledge were in books. 📚
When I was around 20 years old, that quote changed my life... I started to study and became a reader since then. I probably read over 1000+ books in my life. (You should see my book library, Insanity). 🤯
Well since then, times have changed and it seems to me that people behaviors have changed and not many people are reading anymore.
Books are getting replaced by Audio Books, Youtube Videos and different means of information getting distributed these days. 📹🔊💻📱📓
Regardless how people are getting their information, it's kinda like all the same. What I'm trying to say here is that if you want to change or become a better version of yourself, the information is out there and it's just your choice if you want to get it or not.
These days, I'm still a book reader and that may sound crazy to some people but there is something special about holding a book. 📕
Don't get me wrong, I still have tons of audiobooks but if I do get it, I make sure that I buy the book also. Just call me old school 🤣
So let me ask you this, If you had only one book/audiobook that you would recommend to someone, what would it be and why? 🤷🏼♂️
I'll go first, my go to book for #1 Overall would be by a fellow Steemian @grantcardone who wrote The 10x Rule. If you guys been following me for a long time, you may know why from my previous post.
I call this book, a life changer. It will change your thinking about everything you're doing in life and make it better, 10X better. I also recommend getting the audio book, it contains information that you would listen over and over again.... it's just that good. 💯
Heck, I'm currently playing the 10X Rule in the background while writing this, I probably played this audio book over 100X already. 😳
So once again, what is your go to book/audio if you only had to choose one and would recommend it to everyone you know, this should be very interesting! 😋
Keep On "STACKIN" Knowledge! 💞
