Books I've Read this Year

Tuesday I traveled to Washington, D.C...Airports always give me time to read through the many newsletters and books I have purchased and subscribe to...I wanted to read 100 books this year, but I'm way off that, although I spend a lot of time reading print newsletters instead, so that makes up for it.

Here's what I've read so far this year...

8. 6-Minute Circuits - John Barban

3. Never Eat Alone – Kevin Ferrazzi

***16. The New Psycho-Cybernetics – Maxwell Maltz (a must read for everyone)
17. Flip – Various authors
18. Made to Stick – C&D Heath
19. Black Swan – Nicholas Taleb (man, his first book was so much better...)
20. Clublife – Rob the Bouncer
21. Richistan – Robert Frank
22. My Unfinished Business – Dan Kennedy
23. Marley & Me

And the book I just finished Tuesday on a flight from Toronto to Washington was Dan Kennedy's "NO BS Time Management System for Entrepreneurs". This should be required for anyone that actually feels a need to get something done in a day.

A lot of the lessons in this book are repeated in the "4-hour Work Week"...but Kennedy's book came first (by 10 years).

Basically, don't allow anyone to interrupt you, focus on getting a few major things done each day, and don't mess around. You might come across as rude to the "Chatty Cathy's" at your workplace, but its worth it to actually get something done.

Such as reading a book,

CB
PS - Up next is "Thick Face, Black Heart"

PPS - The first "book" you should read is my new TT Bodyweight 500

"Having "no time to train" is no longer an excuse now that CB has released his "TT 500 workout". If you want to get your metabolism jump started, your muscles pumped and your butt kicked then this is the workout you need. This is a whole body workout that will challenge you both physically AND mentally. Every muscle in your body will feel the effects of this workout for days after. Another gem from the CB vault has been released!"
