What are some books that inspired you Real estate or investing
We have all heard of Rich dad poor dad, but what are some of your guys's favorites. One of my all-time favorites is Essentialism, by Greg Mckeown, the book completely changed my life, the biggest thing it teaches you is how to remove the non-essentials from your life, the quote "less is more" is referenced because it means that by getting rid of the unimportant things in your life you actually have more time and better time to do the things that actually matter, it explains how most people believe that being "busy" is productive but it is actually not, only when you learn the mantra that If you don't prioritize your life, someone else will. can you truly be Essential.
Hey Mike,
A book that was a life changer for me was "Who Not How" by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy. Amazing book on how we can all leverage one another's skills and talents to essentially make all of our lives simpler and more fluid. For all of the things you do not enjoy doing in life, there is someone who does enjoy doing it and can do it much better and faster than you. Those are our who's. The same applies for our personal skillsets. There are others out there who hate doing what we are skilled at. By working together and focusing on putting people in the positions where they naturally excel, things get done and done very well. Perfect example is Brandon Turner's team at Open Door Capital. His team members are his Who's. With them, he has built a machine like no other.
@Brandon Rush Wow, havent heard of that one, sounds like a great book, I love the concept of using others' strengths to combat your weaknesses and vice versa, I will have to order this book right away and give her a good read! Thank you for the great recommendation
