Hey all, So I need some help picking out some books to read! I just finished the **compound effect** a couple of days ago and I’m half-way through the **4 hour work week**. I have a library of books that I have not read and I’m not sure which to start on next. FYI the 4 hour work week is great for anyone who’s into making money through automation! **Please only recommend business/self development books!** ---

**Advertising:** Scientific Advertising DotCom Secrets Ogilvy on advertising **Sales/Persuasion:** Influence: Psychology of Persuasion Exactly What to Say: The Magic Words for Influence and Impact I personally haven’t found many books that actually teach you how to sell in the post-trust era, most of them are outdated. Courses have been much, much more valuable. **Mindset/Psychology:** Psycho-Cybernetics The Science of Getting Rich **General stuff that I recommend for everyone to read:** The Power Of Now Man’s Search for Meaning My Personal MBA The 48 Laws of Power ---

Yeah Sam Ovens teaches sales pretty well, Consulting Accelerator is great. Another great sales course is 7-figure sales secrets by Jeremy Miner, I actually think Sam got a lot of his sales principles from him lol 😁 ---

I would highly recommend 2 great self help books I recently read. Chimp Paradox by Steve Peters 12 rules for life by J Peterson The last one I would say is a hard read and touches on a lot of topics but it does help a lot to get your life in perfect order (helped me at least) ---
