Get My List of 100 Books That Will DRAMATICALLY Improve Your Life (Free)

This post is a monster, clocking in at nearly 4,000 words (but it’s broken up so you can just skip around to whatever interests you), so I’ll keep this intro short!

Next week I’ve got my breakdown of Dan S. Kennedy’s phenomenal No B.S. Guide to Succeeding in Business by Breaking All the Rules, which is one of my favorite business books that I’ve read so far (out of hundreds).

Here’s a summary and my complete notes from the book (all 12 pages of them), and of course my breakdown will go in a lot more depth on the key ideas and all that.

Readers of my newsletter will get first access.

I’m also really enjoying Better & Better, by Bob Stiller — a man who built a billion-dollar business through optimism, self-awareness, and kindness, while at the same time funding all these charitable initiatives around the world. What a guy, and what a book!
