The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles



Not the normal type book I'd read. But, it was suggested by a mentor in relationship to some studies.

No judging please.

Mentoring 101 by John C. Maxwell


The New Psycho-Cybernetics

It doesn't have "think" in the title as 3 others I've read this year, but has caused me to dig deeper in the box than ever.

Rate (1-5): 5 (which only goes for those I intend to read multiple times

Thinking for a Change, by John C. Maxwell

This is the 3rd book I've been reading this year with the work "Think" in the title. I can say thinking is playing an important part in my growth right now.

I pray for the wisdom to think well.

Pendulum


I haven't finished this book, but putting the post up to start journaling about this book on marketing. Actually, I'm going today to get it in hardback...too much important stuff to not being reading in hardback (for me), marking up and dating.

This is going to be a slow, deep...read. Lot's of history!

3/31/2013: Finished a good summary of book, but will have to dig deeper into the Me vs We and relevance to my "Why" for needing to know all that. Good summary/ending.

The author makes a good case for -

The internet is a relationship building tool.

Truth? I bought and have been reading the hardback and I just don't get the point...this book is deeper than I can get right now.

But! I like the part about the internet being a relationship building tool. I get that.

6/9/2013: I've circled back numerous time to this book and the comment about the internet being a relationship building tool. This is deeper than I originally thought.

Note

I'm logging all my reads, thus the posts without descriptions - maybe I'll catch up on notes!

How to Read a Book, by Motimer Adler and Charles Van Doren

Reading Think by John Piper and John mentions this book as an important read for him during his college years.

This will be a slow read...great reference material.

Think: The Life of the Mind and The Love of God, by John Piper

Another slow slow, even slower read. It's one of those..."I finished, but I'm not sure I got it reads." Definitely a multi-read.

Running With the Giants, by John C. Maxwell

In a recent training session, John was asked "if someone could only read one of your books, which one would you recommend?"

Without hesitation, John said "Running With the Giants."
