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! 💞

I wish I liked reading , but it’s good to expand our knowledge and use it in the real world to connect and conquer

I have been collecting books for a number of years now. Glossy, quality paper, with pictures. Yearbooks from my school & rival schools, with autographs, and students writing farewell, messages to there friends. Showed one to a friend, now 66years old, with his Mother in the 10th grade, in 1938. Perserve those old books.

I love reading books since that's the way I learn the best. I listen to audiobooks though when I'm doing something where I can't read like working out in a gym or driving my car.
If I had to recommend a book, I would recommend Millionaire Fastlane by MJ DeMarco. While it may seem like a get rich quick book from the title, MJ really has a lot of great insights on how to retire soon (besides from just stackin a lot of cryptos) by using a business.

He was a millionaire when he wrote it. He's probably even more wealthy now. The book didn't get Rich Dad Poor Dad popular but he's definitely living what he preaches and stackin large amounts of passive income from those book and audiobook royalties.

I saw @grantcardone on one of @garyvee's shows a few weeks back promoting this book, and I've seen him referenced a few times when people are talking about sales, or cold-calling.
Any particular reason you can give as to why you recommend the book? Like, apart from Grant being an awesome, successful dude, what's the underlying theme to the book? What's the one thing in it that really changed the way you think about sales/etc?

I do like reading fiction, but so many books are full of fluff and padding these days. You can actually get away with accumulating the same knowledge from a few pages online as you can from some books. I think there is a place for both. Non-fiction books still need to tell a story and inspire you to be good.

I definitely would go for a physical book over an audiobook if a could any day; however, most of the time, I have to resort to audio due to time constraints.
As for a book recommendation, the classic "Animal Farm , is such a great read. Not only is it genuinely entertaining but its deeper message on captialism, communism, and human behavior changed the way I look at the World.

I have a 30 minute drive to and from work every day. That's my favourite audiobook time.
The most recent awesome non-fiction I recently listened to was "Lawrence in Arabia" - A history of T.E. Lawrence leading up to the end of WWI. He his fascinating, but the back story of why the war dragged on so long is fascinating.
The most recent awesome fiction I recently listened to was "Ready Player One". For all the geeks out there who grew up in the 80's and early 90's, I recommend giving this a read... before Spielberg releases the movie.

I love books and there is no way I can recommend only one. It so much depends on the time in life and my interests at the time. Right now, if I only can recommend one, it would be Permaculture - A Designer Manual by Bill Mollison.

She had her side I had mine. All I wanted on my side was a nice comfy chair and a bookshelf. I was determined to build my own library. I knew then, the power of knowledge.

despite the general mantra that says:
you need to read because if you read, :
you expand your vocabulary box.
many secrets are hidden inside books, unless you seek to read, you can never grab it.
when you read, your perspectives changes positively from a non reader and you act differently. etc.
never giveup reading, if you are not one start now to become one because reading boost your confidence.

isn´t it all about the knowledge one may gain? not sure whether one actually has to read a book in order to become a better version of itself. I could imagine reading and gathering information from anywhere will do pretty much the same trick as long as one is really investing some time and effort to investigate on a certain topic.
I believe the information is available everywhere one just have to go get it...
... besides I can understand that the "old way" is still used a lot - especially when sitting near the oven over a hot cup of tea during the winter months.

You said, only one book. Well then I would have to say the Bible. I am listening to the old and new testaments both at the same time with the new testament louder than the old testament in the background. I play them through one of my computers day and night.
I have made a lot of bad choices in life. I see that if I would have kept to what was written in the Bible my choices would have been wiser.

I like all the things interesting and useful, plus if I can try them myself then even better. For that purpose I like reading tutorials, message boards and watch a tone of videos.
I believe that knowledge is the most important thing in the world, besides the health.
We will probably spend a lots of time perfecting something, for example making a chair.
But, once perfected, even if we end up without the first good chair we made, every second one will be better.
With knowledge, the opportunity arises out of anything.

I used to be reading about 4 books simultaneously, I could never read enough. I've read thousands. It's a year since I've read a book cover to cover. My car has Bluetooth and my phone unlimited data, so I now stick on a YouTube video and listen while I'm driving. I pick ones where the pictures don't matter. My hour long commute flies in listening to a TED talk or a Sunnydecree livestream etc.

If there's just one book in the world, it would be a short story collection from Roald Dahl. Just because we need a little bit more black humor in this world ^^ Try "lamb to the slaughter" or "way up to heaven".
And of course: read books, all of you, damit! ;)

This post resonates deeply with me. I'm a big reader and firmly believe that if you are not learning something new every day you are wasting your time. I am currently reading a book that talks about this as well (which is why its resonating so hard) but focuses on your financial education.. learning every day about money and finance and how it all works, something not really taught in school but essential if you want to be financially successful. Right now I would recommend that book. Its called "rich dad poor dad: What the rich teach their kids about money - That the poor and middle class do not!" - and if you have kindle unlimited its free on there.
Its fascinating as it highlights the different ways the rich and poor think about and approach money, and why it makes the rich rich and the poor poor.
