top 10 business books that are going to change your life.

for audio books and how to get books in a blink

to this channel because I put out videos
every single week with more entrepreneurship tips
and how to grow your business,
make an impact and a profit through video marketing.
Number one and two on my list,
I put them together because, as you can see,
they pretty much go hand in hand,
are Russell Brunson's books "Expert Secrets"
and "Dotcom Secrets" and the third one,
"Traffic Secrets" is coming out very soon.
By the time you're watching this, it's hopefully there.
So, I'm gonna put a link in the description below
cause you can actually get these books for free.
All you have to do is pay the shipping.
By the time this video's out, you'll probably be able to get
the "Traffic Secret" book as well.
So these books, I've given these books away
more than I could count.
This is like, my most gifted book to people.
And what I've often say is that
I'll give them the book and I'll say,
"There's a million dollars hidden in this book,
"you just have to read close enough to find it."
They're all of the techniques, all of the tips,
everything in here, If you follow what's in these books,
and #DOWHATRUSSELLSAYS.
That's kind of a joke in our inner circle,
I mean Russell Brunson's inner circle.
If you do what Russell says, you will make
a million dollars and beyond so get these books.
These are like the first books you should have and read
and just completely consume just be obsessed
with implement, don't just consume them, implement
everything in these books.
And also get "Traffic Secrets."
I'm gonna put a link a below
so you can get these books for free.
Next one, you'll actually see my name in this book.
This is from Alex Charfen who is another one of my favorite,
most incredible mentors that has changed my life
probably more than anyone else.
You'll see my name in this book because I wrote
a really awesome testimonial.
Unfortunately, a lot of my testimonial got cut
because you know, we had to fit it in to this book.
And it's so great that this is just a little,
like it's a bite-size book.
You can really read it in such a quick, it's a quick read.
The thing about this book is that this book
will tell you more about yourself than you even knew.
And I actually wanna read to you part of my testimonial.
And I got pretty emotional writing this testimonial
because Alex is someone, that how do I even put into words?
I honestly (laughs) I can't.
So, I'm gonna read to you my testimonial.
Every time I read it, it unfolds like layers
in front of me, reinforcing different parts of who I am,
and supporting the truth that I am meant
to live in momentum, to never stop,
never turn it off, and never settle.
To grow, expand and hunt daily.
I'm reminded that the "suffering" I experienced in my life
as a misunderstood black sheep was actually
preparing me for the intense lifetime
ahead of me, prepping me to make my dent in the Universe.
So stop what you're doing and get this book.
I also have a link in the description
below where you can get it for free.
And, binge listen to his podcast.
Once you start, it's gonna change your life
and you'll never wanna stop listening to this podcast.
So, also check out his podcast, the Momentum Podcast.
Third on the list from another author
we've already talked about is Russell Brunson, my mentor.
And his book which is about what happens
if you lose everything and it's this "30 Day" challenge book
and every single chapter in here
is written by friends of mine and it's their story
of what they would do if they lost everything
and had to restart in 30 days.
What they would do day by day to recreate their business
and build up their wealth in their business over 30 days.
And this book comes with an actual challenge
where they give you videos
and trainings everyday on what you can do to build
up your business.
It's called the One Funnel Away Challenge,
and I will also include a link where you can get
this book and that challenge.
So every single chapter in here is from popular names
like, let's see, there's my best friend Rachel Peterson,
there's Garrett J white, there's Julie Stoian,
Steven Larsen, Stacey and Paul Martino,
see who else Ping Xu, Myron Golden,
tons of amazing entrepreneurs and friends
of mine who have shared what they would do
if hypothetically, they lost everything, funny story,
I've had people come up to me and be like, "Oh my gosh,
"your chapter in this book was incredible,
"it changed my life, will you autograph it for me?"
And I'm super flattered, but I'm not in this book (laughs)
But I am in inner circle with so many of these people.
So it's funny that sometimes people
think my story is in here, awkward.
A common favorite "Think % Grow Rich".
This is an incredible book, also a quick read,
but something that everyone no matter if you are starting
your business or you're well into your business
is "Think & Grow Rich" and it's exactly like the title says
is you think and grow rich.
It's about how your thoughts create your outcome,
your reality, and there's so many great stories
in here that are just like read this book,
consume it, get obsessed with it, let it like integrate
into your body, everything that has to, that it's shared
in here, it's like these are money making secrets
of who you need to be to be able to create the wealth
you want in your life.
Even like the back of the book says,
"Read yourself into a fortune, this book tells
"you not only what to do, but how to do it."
So "Think & Grow Rich" is a must
on every entrepreneur's shelf.
I had a hard time picking just one of Steven Pressfield's
books to highlight here because I have
all of them and I love every single
one of them, what I really love is that he tells his stories
and the way that he's this really like no BS author,
he's a little like rough around the edges.
And the way that it comes across is really empowering.
And I also like how every page is like its own chapter.
So it's a nice, quick and easy read.
Because there's such short chapters
that are really hard hitting.
This book, "The War of Art" is about that artistic restraint
that we feel as creators as artistic people
that we wanna create our art and put it out into the world.
And sometimes this feeling of resistance that we feel
and how the area that you feel the most resistance
is the area that you need to push through
and get to the most because it's gonna make
the biggest change in the world, the biggest change
in your life.
And so it's all about understanding that resistance
and overcoming it, that's why it's called "The War of Art"
that internal battle that you face with resistance.
The "Dan Sullivan Question" also a very quick and easy read.
But probably the most impactful question
for you when you're building relationships
or even in a sales situation.
It is this one question that you need to ask
in every situation, in every sales call,
in every discovery meeting and anything where you're really
wanting to get to know someone, he explains it and writes
it out word for word, how to ask this question,
and it's an even gives you situations and stories
of when he's asked this question and the outcomes
that have come from it and I can tell you from experience,
I have asked this question in my sales calls.
And then the great thing is you sit back
and you let them answer.
And then even when they think that they're done,
you pause you let them sit in that silence for a moment.
And then they continue to keep speaking.
And the great thing about this question,
is that because you were the one that asked the question
and opened them up to this discovery that they come up
with the answers themselves more than once
I've had the the response at the end of this to go,
this is amazing, I've loved this conversation
so much and I know that I'm meant to work
with you and the funny thing is, they did all the talking.
So this question is something that you need to know
and be able to ask in business
and in personal relationships.
So this book, "The Dan Sullivan Question"
"Your Dream Life Starts Here", this is a book
and also a workbook.
I got this from my mother-in-law for Easter.
It was a really awesome gift.
And you'll see in here there's like, it's really,
there's inspirational quotes, there's lots of exercises
and for someone, if you're someone that you love
personal development and growth and things
that can really create some inner discovery and development.
This book is awesome for you, I even like,
when I'm looking for just a pick me up this is a book
that I go to and even just like randomly pick a page
and find either an exercise to do or an inspirational quote.
There's awesome stories in here, like there are stories
about Oprah and other entrepreneurs who have overcome
obstacles and can inspire you to overcome
anything that you're facing today.
So this book is really awesome that it's filled
with these powerful ideas and really simple but proven
exercises that you can implement.
This is another author that I had a hard time picking
just one of his books Ryan Holiday has these awesome books
this one is "The Obstacles Is The Way"
he also has "Ego Is The Enemy and another book
coming out really soon called "Stillness Is The Key".
See the theme with these books?
He is so inspirational, I'm really looking forward
to "Stillness Is The Key".
But this book specifically is about turning your trials
into triumph and so this is something that I even think
of to myself when I'm facing some sort of like restriction
or resistance in my business and think the obstacle
is the way, when I overcome this, this is what's going
to support me in getting to my next step
and overcoming this and reaching this new peak
of this mountain.
And so "The Obstacle Is The Way", it's like sharing
how these these philosophical principles of how to overcome
these obstacles and really see it as a journey
instead of maybe getting stuck or feeling
like you're in this rut, seeing this as the challenge
to overcome to better who you are and reach that next level.
And lastly, on the list,
is "You Are a Badass at Making Money".
You may have seen the "You Are a Badass" book,
and this is another one that she created
just about specifically your money mindset.
I love this book, because the way that she speaks
is like you're having this awesome, fun conversation
with your best friend.
She's such a funny writer, the way that she shares
these anecdotes or analogies.
It's like, "Oh, I get it, I totally get it."
And by the end of this book, your money mindset
will totally change.
She shares also stories, personal stories, of students
or people that she's worked with, to bring them from being
in this like, money mindset that made them feel
like they weren't worthy of this amount of abundance
to them, by the end of it, having, I mean tons of money
in the bank who doesn't want that?
It's such a fun book, especially with the way
that she writes, it's like you're talking
to your best friend.
So those are my favorite top 10 business books
that I know are gonna change your life.
Like they changed mine, I'm gonna include links
below for them, some of them you can get for free
or all you pay the shipping, they're gonna be amazing
for you, I also wanted to include some honorable mentions.
These aren't necessarily some of them aren't business books,
but ones that have changed my life.
And I really believe that when you change
who you are, you work on developing yourself as a person,
not just in business, but you're also feeding
yourself the best food or working on your health
and your wellness and your relationships.
That's gonna allow you to be the best person in general,
your own personal development so you can give
your best self to your business
which is then gonna be able to give back to the world.
So my first one on this list is Cristy Code Red's,
"Code Red revolution".
Cristy is a client and wonderful friend
of mine that she actually, I followed her Code Red lifestyle
and lost 20 pounds in three months.
And I had no idea that I even needed
to do that, that it was actually gonna be as easy
as it was, I don't wanna say easy as in like,
"You can just lose weight easily" but compared to exercising
and other keto and other diets that I had tried,
Code Red was the easiest for me to maintain and sustain
and even continue to keep that weight off.
And what she teaches you is about water, sleep
and real food, those three things, only those three things
that you need to lose weight.
And there are tons of people that come to Cristy
when they're like on their last chance that they're like'
"I'm gonna have to go for like a surgery to lose weight"
or they've even just given up, that she meets people
who are like hundreds of pounds, even overweight,
and she's able to help them get the weight off fast
and keep it off with real food, water and sleep.
Second honorable mention is "Psycho-Cybernetics".
This is one that I'm actually reading right now.
So I can't give you a full synopsis of it, but this is like
one of the best self help books that's showing
you how to create success and how we're conditioned
and how to even like change the conditioning
to create success.
So this book, like gosh, Russell, actually, Russell Brunson
sent this to every single person in his Two Comma Club
to be able to really dive into this and create
the level of success that that we all deserve, right?
So there's lots of awesome stories in here about like,
building confidence on demand and your belief systems
and what determines your actions and behavior.
So this is what I'm reading right now and can't wait
to continue to get through but one that I really wanted
to mention, cause it's one that I've really
enjoyed the most.
My last book to mention is "Chris Beat Cancer".
This is another wonderful friend
and client of mine and in this book, he shares his story
of how he overcame cancer naturally
and didn't go through chemo despite what his doctors
were telling him to do.
And not only him but he has a website, a blog,
a YouTube channel that has millions of people watching
and he shares how he was able to overcome cancer
and how a lot of his clients and students
who have taken this program have been able
to overcome cancer too.
So this is a really big one, awesome for you to read.
So those are my favorite book.
I hope you love them too, I would love to know
what are the any books that have changed your life
that I missed on this list?
