Courage is something you never lose because courage is something you always choose.
This is an anywhere and anytime read as it comprises of very short stories that create paradigm shifts. Houdini accepted the challenge when he was invited to unlock the door of an escape-proof jail on the British Isles as he was a better locksmith than a magician. The people left him to do his work. After preparing for several hours and getting totally exhausted he leaned against the door only to find it open. The door was never locked, it was only locked in Houdini's mind. The only place where something is not possible is in one's thinking. The only place where it is locked.
Failure does not mean one is a failure, it just means that you haven't succeeded yet

Rich Dad, Poor Dad By Robert Kiyosaki
Robert Kiyosaki teaches people to be millionaires that is why they call him the millionaire school teacher. The book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, does a fantastic job teaching people how to think about work and money. One theme that’s apparent in this book is that for an individual to be wealthy, he must aim to own the system or means of production, rather than work for another individual. The author stresses that there is obviously something confining about being an employee; it blocks the mind to other possibilities and it inhibits initiative.
Having been on the bestseller list for a long, long time, Rich Dad Poor Dad is an absolute juggernaut of a book. It has some really great points, like how rich people know how to make money work for them and how everyone else works for money. The first chapter is pure magic and class and also has one of my favorite quotes from Rich Dad Poor Dad is one which says:
“Most people never study the subject [money]. They go to work, get their paycheck, balance their checkbooks, and that’s it. On top of that, they wonder why they have money problems. Few realize that it’s their lack of financial education that is the problem.”
This book will
· Explore the myth that you need to earn a high income to become rich
· Challenge the belief that your house is an asset
· Show parents why they can’t rely on the school system to teach their kids about money.
· Define once and for all an asset and a liability
· Teach you what to teach your kids about money for their future financial success.
All in all it’s a definitive must read for everyone.
WHAT DID PEOPLE SAID ABOUT THIS BOOK?
Ø The main reason people struggle financially is because they have spent years in school but learned nothing about money. The result is that people learn to work for money but never learn to have money work for them .
-Robert T. Kiyosaki (Author of Rich Dad, poor Dad)
Ø I love my children and want to ensure they get the best education possible! Traditional schooling while very important, is no longer enough. We all need to understand money and how it works. -Sharon L. Lechter, C.P.A (Coauthor of Rich Dad’s Cashflow Quandrant)
Ø Rich Dad, Poor Dad is a starting point for anyone looking to gain control of their financial future. -USA Today
Ø To get over the top financially, you must read rich dad poor dad. It’s common sence and market savvy for your financial

Failing Forward: Turning Mistakes into Stepping Stones for Success By John Maxwell
Are some people born to achieve anything they want while others struggle? Call them lucky, blessed, or possessors of the Midas touch. What is the real reason for their success? Is it family background, wealth, greater opportunities, high morals, an easy childhood?
New York Times best-selling author John C. Maxwell has the answer: The difference between average people and achieving people is their perception of and response to failure.
Most people are never prepared to deal with failure. Maxwell says that if you are like him, coming out of school, you feared it, misunderstood it, and ran away from it. But Maxwell has learned to make failure his friend, and he can teach you to do the same.
"I want to help you learn how to confidently look the prospect of failure in the eye and move forward anyway," says Maxwell. "Because in life, the question is not if you will have problems, but how you are going to deal with them. Stop failing backward and start failing forward!"
