greetings to everyone and greetings to you Jason, I would like you to hear about the book Astro Money Alchemy, a book that talks about such secrets of money and making it that it is something abnormal, and once again thank you for this kind of educational video
I added them to my list. Multiple youtubers have recommended the book of the Psychology of Money. Personally, one of the best books I've read it Letting Go from Dr. David Hawkins, but it is too mystic for the taste of many.
Thank you for the comment Joseph! I haven’t heard of that book before but it looks interesting. Added it to my list for books to read. Thanks for the recommendation!
Great recommendations, Jason! Btw, since you mentioned essentialism, I highly recommend the book called Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkemann. It’s easily the best book I’ve read in the last decade
The Psychology of Money by Morgan House is an excellent book - bought a copy for all my friends and it's making the rounds. The Slight Edge I will definitely pick up. Thanks.
Love the comments. This is what I love about RU-vid, it gives everyone a voice. It makes us think. It makes us aware of our opinion when possibly we didn't know we had one. Your video elicited some interesting comments. Thank you.
Thanks for the comment Jeanie! Yes, it's been fun to get some good feedback and a couple great conversations in the comments. I appreciate you reaching out!
I'm more of a nonfiction fan, and my favorite genre is biography/ autobiography. The three books that you mentioned are very intriguing to me. They may be exactly what I need to read to help encourage a friend who is in an emotional rut, and I'm sure I'll gain some valuable life lessons as well. I always enjoy hearing about what other people are reading, and it has encouraged me to read books that I otherwise might not have read or known about. Thanks for sharing! 🙂👍
@@JasonAlcott I am also an enormous fan of biographies and have been reading them all of my life. I've never been much of a fiction fan. I guess that's because the old saying that "truth is stranger than fiction" holds up pretty well. I will have to think about biographies and the ones that I thought were the best. I have read so many. One book that had an enormous effect on me is essentially a autobiography and that is Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. Talking about his time in the Nazi concentration camps and the people who did and didn't survive and why.
@@JasonAlcott , amigo, I not gonna read them. I got enough info from your video and combining it with my life time experiences it doesn't require any more proof for me to comprehend: focusing is key!
@@JasonAlcott , I know, right! You too. No offense. Just sharing thoughts. And I keep looking for a book to read. Not those info gypsies like Tony Robbins, Robert Kiosaki and such. Tony Robbins and Robert Kiyosaki both have numerous followers and critics, and their work often sparks discussions about its value and effectiveness. Have you ever heard that term: info-gypsy?
First time viewing. You've mentioned several of the principles that I've used in my own life, and I know work to help us become what we are designed to be. One important thing to accomplish that is reading books. Thanks
I will read your 3 books. The 2 books I want to recommend as Life changing and powerful knowledge that one can easily implement to understand yourself and provide the confidence to help others are, and not in any Oder ; ‘The New Earth’ by Eckhart Tolle (author of ‘The Power of Now’) and The New Testament in the Bible which Eckhart Tolle quotes many times in his books.✨🏄♂️
Hi, Jason, the books sound so interesting, that I subscribed. I’ll start with book 2, hoping it was translated into German … As a retired person, I thought about book 1, but maybe I’d give it a try: income is less, needed support is higher. Thank your for sharing! Greetings from Germany, book lover Monika❣
Hi. I stumbled upon your video by chance. Thank you for sharing. I love that quote where there's hope in the future there's power in the present. That's lovely. I like it precisely b/c today I had a day where I set out to do a task, but the day took me in a different direction and ended up fruitless. Those days are in my opinion hardest to accept when trying to reach a goal; days where you've done something necessary but it was more of a process of elimination than visible results. My 3 favourite books which impacted my life are: POWER VS FORCE by Dr. David Hawkins. I don't read a lot of self-help but I've read this 5 times. The other two books are novels and while I know it feels different to read a novel, I've read both so many times and I've learned so much from the authors that I am grateful they were put on my path. The first novel is Catcher in the Rye and the other is Jane Eyre.
Great to virtually meet you Marta! And thank you for commenting! That quote about hope is probably one of my favourites. I know it might feel like you made no progress today, but just by writing the words in your comment I assure you that you did. Keep going. And thank you for sharing your recommendations! Great fiction expands the mind. 😃
@@JasonAlcott Thanks for your positive feedback. I don't think there's enough of it in the everyday. I'm writing a novel myself; that's my dream. Maybe it's not some genius thing like Jane Eyre, but it does deal with issues of today. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos. You should read and review a novel once in a while. There's a channel Booksaresick which I follow and it is growing faster than any other book channel I have seen. Good luck!
So much to read & learn in so many fields. Be it spiritual, religion, social or any other. Single life is not enough. But anyway I need to explore. Thanks for encouragement.
@@JasonAlcott It's hard to explain, one thing though: it was very difficult for me to go and to talk to the girl. But after reading this book there was a moment I realized that this could be my last battle on this planet. I have decided to do this: to go and talk to a pretty girl. My life has changed after that.
@@JasonAlcott if you going to read a Journey to Ixtlan, and going to discuss this book on this channel, I will pay 100 dollars immediately to you :), no joking
I just started “Atomic Habits” by James Clear, recommended by my nephew. It is about creating systems to make positive change in your life to fulfill a goal or achievement.
Great thoughts. Talking of spiritual books, I recommend that you also read Ruthless Yokes Breakers a book by Bode Jackson. It conveys some useful information on how to neutralise toxic and negative energy.
Quality analysis !! Bro in corporate world as employee or in life how to build relationships with powerful people who can influence our earning potential to stand out from rest of the others as i have heard about making impactful connections in career has worked tremendously well for some people to uplift their financial situation.. how some people gain advantage in those situations & earn a fortune..
@JasonAlcott that I had only recently found it as Kindle to buy this month! The first few paragraphs resonate as to how various generations think of money depending on their socioeconomic setting, global events, and values they'd grown up with from parent experience!
Well explained Keep reading these three books as suggested and also read Bhagwad Gita too, in which you will find these teachings which was composed by Lord Krishna 5000 yrs ago in our Bharath
The Screwing of the Average Man (1974) by David Hapgood Adam Smith wrote "read, write and account" multiple times in Wealth of Nations. The United States could have made accounting/finance mandatory in the schools since Sputnik. When have you heard economists, educators or politicians suggesting that?
The best place to start is with the classics. All this stuff is re-cycled babble which was written about 2500 years ago. Start with Marcus Aurelius “Meditations” , Socrates, Plato or any of the Stoics. If that doesn’t do it read the Bible, the Koran, Pali Canon and the Vedas. Shakespeare blows all these books off the shelf. Your book pile would be much shorter but stronger. The problem is nobody is educated anymore so these pop self-improvement types come along and recycle millions-old truths because no one has read the original stuff they are ripping off and rebottling as theirs. So you keep blowing money on these crap 1 idea per book books. If you aspire to do another, read the good stuff first.
Hii Brother I'm new to this channel i observed that you are replying everyone hopefully i I'll get too. My concern is my mindset like i always overthink about people who is doing bad like having affairs with other people , my negative mind always bothers me like will u get the good one like who doesn't have any bad past with others . Also i want to be confident in the public by ignoring what people thinks about me. I want to improve my mindset . My concern might be little funny but for me it's big hectic. Please tell me which books or something can help to get out of this .
Thank you for your comment. I would recommend you start with the Slight Edge. The small steps you can take each day to correct your mindset will make all the difference.
@@JasonAlcott The price of that book slight edge is little high cost for me brother. It's around 1700rs+. Is this the only book which can help me ? or if any other book is similar kindly suggest me brother.
wow....I love reading, but gathering all the books that will "change my life"...I really won't do anything in all of 2024 but read books...I won't have time for anything else....really It will be a "life change"😂🤣
Hey I passed my school previous year and now I'm preparing for my CGL exam . can you suggest me few books for personality development learn human psychology and buiding confidence . BTW I'M FROM INDIA
Thanks for the comment! I would highly suggest ‘How to Win Friends and Influence People’. I did a video series about this book awhile ago. Second would be ‘Everyone Communicates, Few Connect’ by John Maxwell. Keep me posted!
Talking about keeping up with the Jones' and has a typical low-budget streamer setup. I never asked for this sort of stuff in my feed, blame the algorithm. Why not read literature instead? Mindless, endless self-help and self-improvement nonsense. Keep improving, you imrpovers. We're all duly impressed.
@@JasonAlcott this is textbook toxic positivity. I offered nothing but criticism, and you found a positive. Perhaps you could pick up some literature that involves "completing one's sentences." 😐😑
What you are trying to say here is all about material values and egocentricism or individualism. Hence your personal definition of changes of life is confined within merely changes of materialistic life, such as getting more material values to serve your goals of materialistic life, and your subjective belief that priorotising whatever you want is the only way to realise such goals. Emphasising your personal choice means that you consider yourself or whatever you want as the centre of the universe or the centre of your life, but not other people in your life It's a dangerous misconception because it promotes selfishness and egocentricism. It is also so poor because life is not all about material values, while they are merely a part among so many other values in life, such as true friendship, love, family values, social attachment or community spirit, patriotism and suchlike. You can be super- rich in terms of material values, while being extremely poor, severely lacking all other values in life. Big money can certainly buy you whatever of material values you want, but it can never ever buy you true friendship, true love, true family values and happiness. Although you can buy fake friendship and sham relationships, what people around you really want is your money, but not you Such books are suitable only for pursuing material values, but the application of such subjective notions can't guarantee any constructive change
@@JasonAlcott I'd read almost everything, as long as you promise me, it won't change my life. Wouldn't this make a much better thumbnail, too?😉 P.S.: I love SF, the good ones are very inspiring.
The psychology of money, Essentialism & the slight edge maybe great books BUT the best book ever that is worth reading continuously at least twice a year is the Holy Coran, Wow you won’t believe the fundamental change that will happen in your spiritual, emotional & physical life
