THE RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON
By George Clason
This book dispenses financial advice through a collection of parables set in ancient Babylon. Above all it will teach you that ‘saving’ money is equally as important as ‘making’ money.
THE BUSINESS OF BELIEF
By Tom Asacker
This instant classic provides the key to motivating yourself, your friends, your family, your coworkers and your customers.

THE ELEMENT
By Ken Robinson
There’s more to success than having a dream and getting motivated to achieve it. You must also have talent, and put yourself into an environment that fosters and develops that talent. Much of the battle, according to Ken Robinson and Lou Aronica, is discovering the talents that you possess as an individual. These talents are the signpost that lead to your own, individual, personal success.
