self development / self improvement / personal growth

Hi guys,

in this article I would like to talke about books and how those had a huge impact on my life.
After finishing school we generally do not want to read any books whatsoever, because
the school, by purpose gives us books to read that are booking.
so after school our conclusion is : books are boking , i dont want them.
the link was created beween school = no fun ( book = no fun)

however, i want to to just thing about any problem that you ever had in our life and how to solve it.
Jim Rohn says there are 3 Questions that you can ask that will solve most problems.

1. What can I do ?
2. What can I read ?
3. Whom can I ask ?

Now, in the past people could not even read, books were forbidden and it was really hard to get
information for any topic that you were intrested in.
accordingly the people in power controlled the peole through knowledge.
however: today we have free access to basically all the information on the planet, and thats for free.
If we dont know something, we just google it ( www.ecosia.org is a better solution - they plant trees when you search the web)

but once you are really intressted into a topic, you wish to go really deep
and that where books are still really powerful and can have a huge impact on somebodys life.

In the beginning people usually do not know how to start as there are soooooo many books to chose from.
and most of them will not bring you any further.
So the first question for you can be: in which areas of your life you would like to improve ?

here are a few exaples:

1. money / don't have enough money: research money
2. health / struggling with health : educate yourself
3. spirituality / something beyond has touched you and you lost access to it : do some research
4. love / your heart got broken and you can not trust anybody anymore : be brave and grow in this area
5. job / you hate your job and the job is not satisfying you : read some good, get some ideas , make a change
6. injustice in the world / i would like to make the world better, but feel so powerless. what can I do

there are of course many many more topics.

So how do you get started :
When I was travelling in Asia I met a really nice guy in Panjim, INDIA.
I was sitting in this amazing restaurant and waiting for delicious indian food.
we started chatting and he told me that he woks in Qatar as he can earn more money
and from time to time he comes home to india.
Just lately he started reading book.
and I really loved his Idea of how to approach the whole issue:

he asked all his friends what book they would recommend to read as he does not know where to start.
So he would write down a list from all of his friends.
The book that was mentioned the most is the one that he would start with.

and from my experience, once you start the journey takes you all the way down the rabbit hole.

So I very much encourage you to start reading and take responsibility in your life.
you are the only one who can change your life. It is nobodys fault that you life is the way it is.
It's all you. and once you take back your power and take charge of your life ,
you life will just magically unfold and take you places that you could never had imagines.

here are some recomendations from my side:
