What kind of personal growth / business books impacted your life?

Gabe Cinco

First off, I want to appreciate every single one of you guys for giving me your time to share the types of books that provided positive impact on your lives. I’m a 19 year old who strives to provide an opportunity for disadvantaged/third world people in this world one day and hope to find an idea from the book(s) you recommend to me.

Thank you so much for your time!

For sure "Rich Dad Poor Dad." I thought there's no way it could live up to the hype because everyone talks about it, but it will change the way you look at finances. Once I figured out I can use money to buy more money I saw things differently. "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu is also great, get one with historical commentary as it has some great examples and anecdotes of the principles in action.

This may seem like a weird recommendation, but "The Dispossessed" is also great and will change your worldview on compassion and empathy. It is a science fiction book, so I understand if you aren't into that, but I think it's a book everyone should read.
