What kind of books do I read? I'm about to reveal my complete book library and share with you some of my top book recommendations for changing your life. Since I just moved out of my apartment recently, I decided that I'd shoot a video to go through my entire bookshelf and show you what I read. You'll quickly see that I read books on A LOT of different topics – from health, fitness, business, marketing, finance, productivity, biographies, self-help, etc… I read and consume books that can improve ALL areas of my life. By constantly learning and improving myself, I am able to grow and make continue to make a difference here on my blog.
In the video below, I go through my bookshelf fairly quickly. I make a few comments on some of the books that have stood out to me, but unfortunately it'd take me hours to talk about each one. The truth is, EVERY book that I've read has had an impact on my life, during whatever stage of life that I was in while reading it. I don't believe there's such a thing as a “bad book”, as I think every book and every experience in life can provide value. Even if I get one idea from that book, then that is enough to change my life. I've also included a list of all the books that are in the video below, so you can check them out for yourself on Amazon. There are actually MORE books that I've read than this current list in storage somewhere, but this is a good start that should keep anyone busy. 🙂

How to Make Money Like a Porn Star
There you have it! Long list, I know – it's taken me 10 years to read all of these books. I'd encourage you to check out a few of them and choose whichever ones resonate with you and are relevant to your current stage of life.
I absolutely love reading and I think it's remarkable how you can receive so much value from a book that costs $10 or $20. Every problem or challenge that you're currently facing in your life has already been solved. You can find the solutions to your problems in books and resources. Want to lose weight? There's a million books out there on how to do it, so start reading them. If you want to get rich, then read books from people that are rich and learn from them. Want to have successful relationships? Then read books on the principles of having a successful relationship. All of the information you need is within your finger tips.
Finally, I will say that if you just commit to reading 10 pages per day, then you'll end up consuming 300 pages in a month. That is about reading 1 or more books per month. Over a year, that is 12 books. This simple habit alone can change your life in so many ways.
