I bought three new books today. I prefer the philosophy, history and business books sections in the book store. And maybe one or two books from Stephen King story section.
Mainly because I want to have a constant flow of new interesting books! I prefer authors that writes in interesting engaging ways. And combine cool stuff from different time periods. Tim Ferriss makes extremely interesting books that is highly engaging. He is one of the few that sometimes brings out a colour book! And the design and layout is so original with his stuff.
The books he writes is always too big to read but that’s the beauty with him. He puts in real hard work to produce the most amazing content ever. His books especially fills up your brain fast with new ideas. Today I bought his Tools of Titans new book. But I also prefer his The 4-hour Chef book! He also makes tons of podcasts where you could get tons of unique ideas from.
I also got some European history book over here. You quickly get reminded how ignorant you are once you start reading. Because you realize pretty quick again that you know nothing. We quickly get used to new comforts and are constantly scanning for the next level. 2018 many normal people are even richer than kings 200 years ago. So we are making great progress forward.
In terms of management books I really love Stephen Covey’s books the most. They are so easy to understand and follow. You can feel how he has gone deep to try to make it as simple as possible to understand the concepts he is using. He has many interesting books on manage your life but today I picked up his Speed of Trust book. I hope I will find some magical pieces inside it!
Trust is something that I think the blockchain can help create. Because it allows micro transactions of digital currency in real time. Which can help build a network of trust. It used to be that money was power but now it can become in the way that people is power and the people that wanna build something or do something cool shall have the money. So we all could benefit from the projects and creations!
Books are awesome to learn new things..
Yes they are. But mostly they help you to stay awake and realize the larger universe. Since it requires a certain level of attention to read. For example video and short snippets allows you to sleep more and not pay as deep attention. But when reading you really can feel the deeper value and snaps you into attention mode! And amazing to think about that just 10 minutes of reading per day becomes 5 hours in 1 month. You can really see how the little things matters.
books are always man's best friend
I love the way books can make you change perspective about things :)
