Time for a BOOK LIST.
I've read over 250 self-help and business books..
Heres a list of the ones that have had the largest influence on my life and career.
A thread:
It outlines and reinforces the fact that business, negotiation and any human interaction is inherently very emotional. Mirroring, tactical empathy, starting with no and labeling are all phenomenal.
The first stop for any beginner. This is a great book about the importance of creating a business that can thrive without you. Preaches a lot of my favorite business principles like working on the things that are important but not urgent.
This book just has non stop quality advice about how to build a business the right way. Dave doesn’t preach about politics or religion. He just tells it like it is and tells the stories of what worked for him. Phenomenal read.
Ryan preaches stoicism and how to handle emotions, rejection and stress. Managing that split second between an event and your reaction is what life is all about. It shows the importance of remaining humble and the dangers of overconfidence.
My main takeaway is the discussion on strategic decision making. “Radical Open-mindedness”. It’s human nature to want to be right and appear right in the eyes of others. People who make the best decisions know they don’t have all the answers.
This book talks about how to get your life back once your business takes over. How to specialize in your niche and do it really well. Make it scalable and take yourself out of the equation so that it is valuable to a potential buyer. Story format.
Also in story format this is all about removing bottlenecks from your business. Find out what is holding you back and really focus on fixing that issue so you can break through and expand. The owner of the small business is almost always the bottleneck.
Large scalable companies aren’t likely and aren’t the goal of many entrepreneurs. Starting small and specializing is the key to building a great lifestyle business and then an asset that produces money while you live the life you want to be living.
This approach to sales is to frame the situation so that customers SELL YOU and the deals close themselves. He came on the podcast and outlined this framework.
Life is all about being comfortable in uncomfortable situations. Everyone is a salesman and sales is uncomfortable. This book is a pump up about determination and perseverance and its importance. Its not always going to be fun.
I read this book when I was 21 and it has saved me hundreds of thousands of dollars. It reads like a textbook but its insanely valuable.
What traits, skills or routines are most likely to lead to success? A study backed book full of stories and great insights into what it really takes to win at life and business.
Release date March 2022. All about small biz and real estate mindset and strategy.

This is a short book (75 pages) and it only took me a few hours to read. Its meant to get you thinking and the real works when you apply the concepts to your life and your business. My summary here.
How to be interesting, tell stories and tug and folks' heartstrings. A great book on sales, copywriting, and building deeper relationships. Highly recommend.
A story of NYC in the 70s and 80s and how a real estate empire was built and the city was rejuvenated. I can't help but think about all the similarities we could be seeing in our cities soon. An amazing read for anyone interested in RE.
A story of how a man came from nothing and built up a huge empire of banana farms. Corruption, business, it has it all! I'll never look at a banana the same way.
The autobiography of Ted Turner. Unbelievable story of how he took back his fathers small business when he passed away and turned it into an EMPIRE.
All while spending 3+ mo a year on a sailboat as a pro racer.
Life and business advice wrapped into an amazing book. Corny name, great content.
As good as it gets when it comes to doing the right work and not just setting the right goals. Life is about systems and processes, not goals and dreams.

Want to get SBA loans and special loan programs so you can buy real estate investments with only 5-10% down?
One word for you:
Don’t.
Here’s why
👇👇👇
Leverage can be a beautiful thing.
Appreciation takes over and all that value you bought with debt grows and you amplify your returns.
But there is another, darker side of debt.
Everybody I know loves LEVERAGE when it comes to real estate.
— Nick Huber (@sweatystartup) October 18, 2020
It\u2019s a beautiful and scary tool, kicking appreciation, depreciation, and cashflow into overdrive.
It amplifies everything. You can make a lot of money really fast and go broke in months.
Here\u2019s how it works\U0001f447\U0001f447\U0001f447
Values drop 5 or 10% and you’re underwater. You have zero equity or negative equity.
Ask the folks who were over-levered in 2007 what happened on 2011?
Real estate is a frothy space right now. Money flying everywhere and values higher than they’ve ever been.
Debt is cheaper and easier to get than ever.
Will it continue?
Probably.
Money could stay cheap for a long time. There is a ton of negative yielding debt abroad and liquidity ready to flood our market at the drop of a hat.
Rates will likely stay low. Gov will probably keep subsidizing these loans. You’ll probably be okay.
Interact with smart people here on Twitter who have different world-views than you do.

Twitter can be terrible if you follow negative people.
It can also be more valuable than a college degree if you follow (and network with) the right people.
You get to look right into their brain and read a daily narrative of HOW they think.

This is ridiculous. Students were asked for their views on this example and several others. The study findings and conclusions were about student responses not the substance of each case. Could\u2019ve used hypotheticals. The responses not the cases were the basis of the conclusions.
— Eric Kaufmann (@epkaufm) February 17, 2021
Here is the incident Kaufmann incorporated into his study, as told by a Cardiff professor who was there. As you can see, the incident involved the university intervening to *uphold* free speech principles:
The UK govt\u2019s paper on free speech in Unis (with implications for Wales) is getting a lot of attention.

Worth noting then that an important part of the evidence-base on which it rests relates to (demonstrably false) claims about my own institution

Here is the first mention of the Greer at Cardiff incident in Kaufmann's report. It refers to the "concrete case" of the "no-platforming of Germaine Greer". Any reasonable reader would assume that refers to an incident of no-platforming instead of its opposite.

Here is the next mention of Greer in the report. The text asks whether the University "should have overruled protestors" and "stepped in...and guaranteed Greer the right to speak". Again the strong implication is that this did not happen and Greer was "no platformed".

The authors could easily have added a footnote at this point explaining what actually happened in Cardiff. They did not.

There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.

Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan. Be aware of the information you\u2019re sharing and that it may be false. Always #factcheck #GeorgeNkencho pic.twitter.com/4c9w4CMk5h

Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.
There is a concerted effort in far-right Telegram groups to try and incite violence on street by targetting people for racist online abuse following the killing of George Nkencho
— Mark Malone (@soundmigration) January 1, 2021
This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
