How to get smarter, happier and more successful every day

How are you? I feel fantastic and I hope you feel the same! Let me ask you another question, are you the person you always wanted to be? Are you as happy as you want to be? Do you know all the things you always wanted to know?

What if I say to you that you can change your whole life within less of 30 minutes a day? You can learn from the experience of many successful people like Richard Branson, Steve Jobs or Elon Musk. In addition, you can learn how to be happier or how to deal better with your finances.

All you have to do is start reading the right books. But what are the right books?

Well, that depends on what you want to learn. There are books in almost every section. There are many good books about finances, marketing or relationships. Here are some example sections, where you can read books.

Finances

Now you maybe ask yourself, why you would want to read a book about finances. A well-paid job should be enough, right?

Earning good money is never bad but if you can’t deal with your finances you will never be fully happy. So you can read books about how to deal better with your finances or how to invest your money. When I learned how to deal better with money I much more happy and satisfied.

When I learned how to deal better with money I much more happy and satisfied. I know how to spend my money to be more satisfied and also I know where I can invest my money to have a good profit while keeping the risk low.

Self-confidence

Do you already have the self-confidence of a lion? If not you maybe should start reading books about how to build self-confidence.

I think you already know how important self-confidence can be. It can make the difference between a good job or an average job. It can make the difference between beeing single or having your dream partner. And in many other ways.

Happiness

Do you feel happy and passionate every single day? Are you happy with your job, your lifestyle and/or your love partner? If not is that the problem of the job, the lifestyle or your love partner? In my opinion, in most of the cases, the problem is the person itself.

Happiness comes from within. Happiness doesn’t start when you have a big house, a nice car or three kids. You need to learn how to be happy without any reason. Believe me, if you learned that you will be truly happy.

Relationships

How happy are you with your love partner? Or are you searching for one and you can’t find one? How big is your network? And how supportive is it?

Reading books can help you to develop deeper and more meaningful relationships. You can learn how to make friends or how to talk to completely strangers. There are many books about networking in the market because it can be so important.

Your network is your highest asset. And if you don’t know how to build your network you have to learn it. And there is no better way than reading books and trying them out!

Motivation

How do you feel on a Monday morning? Tired from the weekend and not motivated going to work? Like most of the people? What if I say to you that you can be very motivated every day? Even a Monday morning!

Do you know how to do that? No? Then you need to learn how to get and stay motivated. You can find many different books on this topic, you only need to be motivated to read one 🙂

Sports and exercising

I don’t know how fit you are at this moment. Maybe you are an athlete and you don’t need any tips but there are also many people who want to be fitter but they don’t know how. There are endless books about fitness and exercising and depending on your goal you there should be definitely one for you.

You can also learn what food you need so your body works at an optimal level so you will be more energized. If you feel that you could have more energy you should read a book about that!

Skills

Do you always wanted to know how good marketing works? Or how you can memorize things better. Whatever it is, I’m sure there is somewhere a book that can help you develop the skill you always wanted. Or maybe you need right now.

I once read a book about speed reading and now I can read up to 2 times faster than before. So what normal people read in 1 hour I can read in 30 minutes or even less. So develop your skills you need and you want to have!

Biography

Who is your ideal? Is it the genius behind Apple, Steve Jobs? Or maybe one of the best basketballer of all time, Michael Jordan? Whoever it is, do you want to know what mindset these persons have? What kind of struggle they have been facing while working on their dream. How did they keep working to accomplish the impossible?

Of course, you can try to ask them but in many cases, you don’t have access to these people. Luckily most of them have published a biography. So you can read about these persons and learn from their lessons! Isn’t that great?

As you can see there are endless possibilities and also books out there. Many successful people read one book a week. This seems a lot, but if you are able to block some time for reading this is absolutely possible.  I read about 1-2 hours before I go to sleep. This has the advantage that one the one side my eyes are much more tired when I want to go to bed and on the other side, I learn something every evening.

I have to admit that I have never been much of a reader. The only time I was reading was on vacation, but also not always. When I started to read books about personal development I was hooked. I read books, which cost me around 10$ but they are worth more than 10,000$!

In the future, I will present some of the best books I read, but the most important thing is that you start reading. Start with maybe 30 minutes a day. This isn’t a lot and should be possible for everyone.

I hope I was able to motivate you to start reading books! What have been your best book so far? Let me know by leaving a comment below 🙂
