BOOKS Which books have you read at least 5x?

[designernils]

Really surprised to see how this topic turned out.

So many interesting thoughts and opinions to see how you approach the usefulness of a book.

• Some can't even read a book to gather information, but prefer via audio / visual means.
• Others mention that they only read the book 2-3x to find it useful.
• Some even read to write (which we actually should if we want to imprint the core ideas in our head)

It's indeed true, that a book is only valuable to you if you actually implement the knowledge straight away, and not for the sake of reading.

This can be done by

• implementing the knowledge you've read
• writing down your thoughts, to express it
• discussing about it

It actually reminds me of @MJ DeMarco's newsletter "Holy sh*t: This is the best book I've ever read." from May 12 2023.

All in all, I really appreciate all your answers & opinions and I'm already looking forward to on how this thread will develop!

88 The Narrow Road from Felix Dennis.
It's short, tells you exactly what to do, and discusses topics that aren't often discussed in business books.

Another one is the Almanack from Naval Ravikant. The parts of leverage and specific knowledge are extremely valuable.

If you combine the Almanack and The Narrow Road, you will basically know everything you need to know to succeed in business.

The Millionaire Fastlane is the book that actually changed my life. It kicked me into gears and made me START.
