552. These 5 Books Changed My Life (+ made me millions)
These 5 book helped me go from a drug addict with no job and $350 in my bank account to building a $30m+ online fitness business, achieve an 8 figure net worth, and marry the woman of my dreams… Before I share the list, I first want to admit something… I haven't read a 'self-help' book in over a year. But cumulatively, I've read over 100 personal development and business books. Nowadays, I mainly read non-fiction and the occasional autobiography. I share that because what I read today is not what I read to get me to where I am today… For who I am now, I believe it's more beneficial for me to read books that allow me to expand my imagination than more 'how-to' stuff… After you've read so many, you realize they all say the same thing. I do believe it's important to go through this phase though so I want to share my top 5 books that have changed my life and what I'd recommend for any coach or entrepreneur.
