Always Sharpen the Saw - Episode 305

from Crushing Debt · host Shawn M. Yesner

Do you continue to learn? What do you do to feed your body, your mind, and your spirit? Long time listeners know that I read, at least 30 - 45 minutes per day in the morning when I first wake up as part of my daily routine to get ready for my day. The house is quiet and my wife and kids are still asleep (most mornings). Each year, I like to do an episode on some of more impactful books I've read the previous year, which is the topic of today's Crushing Debt Podcast episode. While I don't talk about every book (there were 26 of them this year), I do give you brief summaries and take-aways from the following books. My hope is that you find some books in the below list that interest you, that you can read over the coming years: You Can Negotiate Anything - Herb Cohen Shark In The Housing Pool - Matthew Cox Clockwork - Mike Michalowicz The New Great Depression - James Rickards Why My J.O.B. Quit Me - Mechiel Kopaska Remarkable Business - Contribution by Shawn Yesner Your Best Year Yet - Jinny S. Ditzler The Energy Bus - Jon Gordon Bitcoin Billionaires - Ben Mezrich The Bomber Mafia - Malcolm Gladwell The Pumpkin Plan - Mike Michalowicz Building a Story Brand - Donald Miller The 401k Revival - Michael Watkins The Creature from Jekyll Island - G. Edward Griffin The Diabetes Code - Dr. Jason Fung Permission Marketing - Seth Godin I had the privilege to interview some of these authors about their books on my show during the year. Mike Michalowicz - Episode 231, Become Debt Free with Profit First Michiel Kopaska - Episode 263, Stuck in a J.O.B.? Michael Watkins - Episode 284, Sidestep the Market Crash (plus episodes 196 and 97) I would also like to know what books you've read that are not on this list, that I can read this year or next.  What books have had the greatest impact on you, or you have enjoyed reading? Please email me at [email protected]. Please also support our friend and sponsor, Sam Cohen at Attorneys First Insurance by introducing him to an attorney or title company that would like a quote on malpractice insurance. You can connect an attorney or title company to Sam at [email protected] or www.AttorneysFirst.com.
