Living The 80/20 Way : Work Less, Worry Less, Succeed More, Enjoy More Living The 80/20 Way : Work Less, Worry Less, Succeed More, Enjoy More

A self-made millionaire and best-selling author, Koch pioneered the idea that we can achieve more if we relax, enjoy life, and focus on the few things that matter most to us as unique individuals. Here he makes immensely practical the proven 80/20 sensation he lives himself and created for millions of others. Koch is the author of the international Bestseller, The 80/20 Principle.

Sam Harris: Letter to a Christian Nation [Science, Atheism]

Sam Harris: Letter to a Christian Nation [Science, Atheism]Sam Harris is the author of the New York Times bestsellers, The End of Faith and Letter to a Christian Nation.
About "Letter to a Christian Nation":
  “Sam Harris’s elegant little book is most refreshing and a wonderful source of ammunition for those who, like me, hold to no religious doctrine. Yet I have some sympathy also with those who might be worried by his uncompromising stance. Read it and form your own view, but do not ignore its message.”
–Sir Roger Penrose, emeritus professor of mathematics, Oxford University,
author of The Road to Reality
  “Reading Harris’ Letter to a Christian Nation was like sitting ring side, cheering the champion, yelling ‘Yes!’ at every jab. For those of us who feel depressed by this country’s ever increasing unification of church and state, and the ever decreasing support for the sciences that deliver knowledge and reduce ignorance, this little book is a welcome hit of adrenalin.”
–Marc Hauser, Harvard College Professor, author of Moral Minds: How Nature Designed Our Sense of Right and Wrong
  “I can’t sign my name to this blurb. As a New York Times best selling author of books about business, my career will evaporate if I endorse a book that challenges the deeply held superstitions and bigotry of the masses. That’s exactly why you should (no, you must) read this angry and honest book right away. As long as science and rational thought are under attack by the misguided yet pious majority, our nation is in jeopardy. I’m scared. You should be too. Please buy two, one for you and one for a friend you care about.”
–Unsigned, New York Times best selling author

Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!

Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!

Radical thinkers are in a class by themselves, and thankfully, we can join them. This author invites all of us to learn and embrace logical ways to earn, invest, and save money over and above anything we learned through traditional education.
The knowledge unfolds in a way that's not overwhelming or pretentious, shifting your mind by 360 degrees to realize your potential for building wealth outside of working a traditional job. It's not a hard sell, it simply makes sense. What I also appreciated are insights on showing children, through word and deed, how to accomplish the same in their lifetime.
You may not be ready to accept everything stated in this book, and that's okay. It often takes time to change years of the "go to school, get a job" mentality.
It's easy to identify with statements the author shares regarding other people's negative opinions about wealth and investing. There's a healthy dose of examples sprinkled throughout the book as well as counterpoints that persuade you to continue moving forward toward your goal of financial freedom.
Once I began reading Rich Dad, Poor, Dad, it was difficult for me to put this book down. Like me, I believe that if you read it once, you'll read it again as a blueprint for your own financial success.
