here are four non-finance books that changed my life and made me rich in terms of relationships health and overall happiness number one How to Win Friends and Influence People one of the first self-development books I read was this book by Dell Carnegie it's nearly 100 years old now published in 1937 I read back on it recently and now some of it feels like common sense but at the time it was all new I didn't know most of the things so if you haven't read it this is a classic text which is a Cornerstone for developing
better social skills and being able to speak to anyone easily or for even overall just being a nicer person the biggest takeaway from this book is a to be interested not interesting simple things like smiling asking people about themselves discussing their interests these are all things that make you likable not in a scammy way but in a sincere genuine way some of the book's most impactful lessons include firstly become genuinely curious about other people and their lives secondly remember that a person's name their own name is the sweetest sound they could hear and bring it
up in a conversation use it in a conversation number three frame conversations around the other person's interests not just your own and number four make those around you feel significant and appreciated as Carnegie summarizes you can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in 2 years by trying to get other people interested in you really good book number two we then have a break beh habit of Being Yourself by Joe dispenser I read this book when I was stuck with where I wanted to go I knew I
wanted to get more out of life I knew I wanted to do more achieve more and I felt like I was putting the work in but I wasn't seeing the results and it was a close friend that recommended this to me and it's played a huge role in me being able to break through to create a life that I never believed I was capable of and that I wouldn't have been able to achieve with my previous mindset it's a long book there's a lot of detail in it some of it went over my head but
what I like is that it's not fluffy it's based on neuroscience and quantum physics with spirituality mixed into it dispenser basically explains how we have a subconscious mind and a conscious mind our conscious mind is think of it as a tip of the iceberg so these are things that you're thinking whilst you're watching this video the things that you're doing at the moment that's all your conscious mind the other 90% lies in the subconscious mind and the subconscious mind is a vast repository of our thoughts of our feelings our behaviors and it's that subconscious that
is the driving force behind so much of what we do the way we think and who we are fundamentally as a person when you have a thought or a feeling there's certain urance in your brain that fires electrical signals and the more often these neurons fire at the same time the more likely they are to fire at the same time again in the future so when you frequently think or feel something you repeatedly activate the same neurons in your brain and over time you strengthen those connections making those thoughts or those feelings a habit for
yourself so this book talks about how to rewire your brain and Forge New connections it talks about how to reinvent yourself using science it's a bit on the dense bgs but the overall takeaways for me have been life-changing whenever I read a good book I have this sudden urge to want to do more whether it's to do more in the business to be more productive to start a new project and I have this new idea and I'm looking to learn more about it I check out the classes on skillshare who are very kindly sponsoring today's

video number three the three marriages this book it really had me rethinking my entire approach to life this book talks about how we have three marriages not just one one two are significant other one is our commitment to work and one is our commitment to our inner selves as someone who was constantly trying to balance work love and self this book has been revolutionary I used to think I had to compartmentalize these three areas of my life I had to devote X hours to the job Y hours to my partner Z hours to myself but
the author made a really compelling case that this work life balance mentality is just way too simplistic instead he argues that these three marriages to our work to our loved ones and to ourselves are all interconnected and or interdependent they're not separate domains but they should be balanced instead they should support one another and enhance one another and that really hit home for me I realized I was inadvertently pting these aspects of my life against each other constantly feeling like I had to sacrifice one to serve another so the key takeaway that changed everything was
understanding that true Harmony comes when you stop trying to balance and you start focusing on integration how can my work feed my relationship how can my relationship nourish my sense of self it's all about finding those synergies instead of seeing them as competing priorities the real life stories and the author's writing made it really really engaging and relatable I found myself nodding long and thinking y that's me in so many instances so if you're feeling like you're struggling with work life balance this is you it will give you a whole new approach for approaching work
love and self in a way that brings more fulfillment more Harmony and more joy to each of the areas and number four surrounded by idiots have you ever found yourself thinking you're communicating really well really effectively you're explaining things very simply you've laid it out from a to zed but the other person just can't understand or get what you're trying to say I mean I'm sure we've all felt like this this book goes into the four key personality types and the key personality types are represented by color red yellow green and blue and it talks
about how understanding the communication style of each of these personalities can change your relationship with them the key takeaway from this book is that the same words can have completely different meanings for different personality types so what's clear and logical to one person may be completely confusing to another simply because of their innate personality differences so the author offers practical tips on how to identify the personality type of the person you're communicating with and then adjust your wording and your tone and approach in a way that they could most connect with biggest takeaway is to
learn to adapt to others communication style rather than expecting them to adapt to Yours by being flexible and meeting people where they are you can have more productive more collaborative conversations and avoid the frustration of feeling like you're surrounded by idiots so those are four non Finance books that I've Loved I'd love some recommendations from you what are some non-finance books that you recommend that I and others should check out and how have they helped you increase your wealth in the different areas of your life thanks for watching don't forget to subscribe if you haven't
