I am always looking for new books to read but there are certain books that hit me in such a way that they come to be part of those books that I constantly revisit.<\/p>\n

The books I share in this post struck a deep chord within me, and catalyzed principles, ideas and philosophies that spurred me into action which then led me to continued growth and success.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg<\/h3>\n
    \n

    Obviously, the title says it all, and I was drawn to read it precisely BECAUSE of the title.<\/p>\n

    I am fascinated with habits, discipline and the actions of highly successful people and so this was an obvious read.<\/p>\n

    Upon reading this book however, I was intensely intrigued, even more fascinated and had many breakthrough ideas about habits.<\/p>\n

    I won\u2019t give it away, at least not now, and highly recommend reading this book.<\/p>\n

    Awaken the Giant Within by Anthony Robbins<\/h3>\n
    \n

    This is a monster of a book \u2013 it\u2019s huge, it covers a LOT and it is absolutely groundbreaking to read.<\/p>\n

    I constantly revisit this book because I continuously receive so much insight into my life due to it.<\/p>\n

    If you have not read it yet\u2026then I do not understand why.<\/p>\n

    Pick it up, read it and apply it!<\/p>\n

    The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson<\/h3>\n
    \n

    This title of this book is not as obvious, and it caught me by surprise actually.<\/p>\n

    I did not expect it to be as good as it is, as it does not necessarily \u2018sound\u2019 as powerful as the first 2 \u2013 sounds silly I know (judging a book by its cover and title which just proves that you shouldn\u2019t!).<\/p>\n

    This book blew me away \u2013 its simplicity, honesty and authentic approach to success is refreshing and just VERY REAL and applicable.<\/p>\n

    Put it at the top of your reading list!<\/p>\n

    \n

    What I love about these books is that they really work well together.<\/p>\n

    From Awaken the Giant Within<\/em> I learned a lot of the reasons of WHY I did certain things, and most especially tapped into my core values.<\/p>\n

    From The Power of Habit<\/em>, I learned one KEY principle about habit which has struck me as so true when I look back upon my life and can see that it works.<\/p>\n

    And from The Slight Edge<\/em>, I have a very powerful and SIMPLE formula for combining my philosophies and actions together to enjoy success throughout my life.<\/p>\n

    Let me know in the comments if you have read these books and if they have impacted your life.<\/p>\n

    Also, let me know one book on your bookshelf that you revisit often.<\/p>\n

    Much love and Pura Vida!
