7 Mind-Blowing Books Guaranteed To Increase Your Intelligence, Creativity & Compassion

“I like reading books where I feel my brain have an IQ orgasm. Like, I literally feel my IQ go up while reading this book” — James Altucher

1. You will learn the secrets of over 200 world-class performers that will enable you to become healthy, wealthy and wise.

Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers, by Tim Ferriss

“Work is how you settle your financial and emotional debts, so that your travels are not an escape from your real life, but a discovery of your real life.”

“No matter what the situation may be, the right course of action is always compassion and love”

How strongly I recommend it: 10/10

2. You will be moved, touched and truly inspired by the woman who inspired us all, the late great Maya Angelou.

Rainbow in the Cloud: The Wit and Wisdom of Maya Angelou, by Guy Johnson and The Estate of Maya Angelou

“We are not our brother’s keeper, we are our brother and we are our sister. We must look past complexion and see community.”

“Never put your sheroes and heroes up on pedestals. All mortals have their shortcomings and weaknesses. Their skills and deeds are what we must applaud. Don’t fall victim to the cult of personality.”

“Continue to plant a kiss of concern on the cheek of the sick and the aged and infirm and count that action as natural and to be expected.”

How strongly I recommend it: 10/10

3. You will gain the confidence to live your own truths and understand that embracing your truths is a fundamental key to success and happiness.

Black Privilege: Opportunity Comes to Those Who Create It, by Charlamagne Tha God

“There are no losses in life, only lessons.”

“No matter how or where you were raised, you can make the choice to live a different way.”

“Measure your success by the opportunities you’re presented with and the opportunities you’re creating for others. Not the amount of zeros in your paycheck.”

How strongly I recommend it: 10/10

4. You will learn how to spot media manipulation and fake news from one of the best in the business — a former media manipulator.

Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator, by Ryan Holiday

“A click is a click and a pageview is a pageview. A blogger doesn’t care how they get it. Their bosses don’t care. They just want it…The headline is there to get you to view the article, end of story. Whether you get anything out of it after is irrelevant — the click already happened.”

“The Internet worships a different god: Traffic. It lives and dies by clicks, because that’s what drives ad revenue and influence. The central question for the Internet is not, Is this entertaining? but, Will this get attention? Will it spread?”

“Each generation of media has a different cock in its mouth.”

How strongly I recommend it: 10/10

5. You will learn to apply the healing powers of love and connection and discover the beauty of forgiveness and spirituality.

The Wisdom of Sundays: Life-Changing Insights from Super Soul Conversations, by Oprah Winfrey

“If the only prayer you say in your entire life is ‘thank you’, that will be enough.”

“Trade your expectation for appreciation. Your whole life changes in that moment. Suffering ends in that moment.”

“I believe three of the most important words anyone can say are not I love you, but I hear you.”

6. You will discover where ideas and inspiration come from and be ready to unlock your own brilliance and unleash it on the world.

Ignore Everybody: and 39 Other Keys to Creativity, by Hugh MacLeod

“The idea doesn’t have to be big. It just has to be yours. The sovereignty you have over your work will inspire far more people than the actual content ever will.”

“The best way to get approval is not to need it. This is equally true in art and business. And love. And sex. And just about everything else worth having.”

“Put the hours in. Doing anything worthwhile takes forever. Ninety percent of what separates successful people and failed people is time, effort, and stamina. Put the hours in, do it long enough, and magical, life-transforming things happen eventually.”

How strongly I recommend it: 9/10

7. You will learn that there is a lot more to becoming super successful and famous than just hustle and grind — and these reasons are why you will stop idolizing the super successful and famous.

Outliers: The Story of Success, by Malcolm Gladwell

“No one, not rock stars, not professional athletes, not software billionaires, and not even geniuses, ever make it alone…outliers always have help along the way.”

“People don’t rise from nothing. We do owe something to parentage and patronage. The people who stand before kings may look like they did it all by themselves. But in fact they are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies…It makes a difference where and when we grew up.”

“To build a better world we need go replace the patchwork of lucky breaks and arbitrary advantages that today determine success — the fortunate birth dates and the happy accidents of history — with a society that provides opportunities for all.”
