Gary Vaynerchuk

1. Gary Vaynerchuk - Crush it

Who knew you could make money out of Season two of the Smurfs?  This incredible book opened my eyes to how to become an expert in your field and how you can make money out of your passion.  This is a must read for anyone wanting to start a small business!

After reading this book I have had so many business ideas.  If you are looking for inspiration, a way to make money doing what you love or inspiration to use social media this is the book for you!

Tim Ferriss

2. Tim Ferriss  - The Four Hour Work Week

Tim taught me all about the concept of mini-retirements and running businesses online.  He changed my entire view of business and inspired me to change the way I live my life. 

Tim has inspired my first ever mini-retirement which is coming up with 6 months in South America, Costa Rica and Ecuador.  The challenge and the most exciting bit is that Tim thinks I can run my business and grow it with only four hours a week whilst I am there!

Tony Robbins

3. Anthony Robbins - Notes from a Friend

I was given this book as I left for Rio De Janiero aged 21.  I had just quit the job of my dreams, got dumped by my girlfriend and was wondering what to do with my life.

Tony opened my eyes, helped me to relate better to other people and inspired me to do more with my life.  Tony's book started me on a journey of learning and reading books that has never stopped.  This is the very first book that inspired me and had a life changing effect on my world!

4. Tim Ferris - The Four Hour Body

Over the last two years I have lost 5 Stone and kept it all off!  I am fitter, stronger and younger looking than I have ever been and it is all down to Tim!

The tag line for this book sold it to me!  "The Four Hour Body - An uncommon guide to rapid fat loss, incredible sex and being super human"
If you want to get fit, sleep better, lose weight + much, much more then you have to read this book!

Stephen Covey

5. Stephen R Covey - The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

I have read this book several times, I have bought the workbook and gone through that and continue to work applying the habits in my life on a day to day basis! 

This book changed the way I interact with other people, run my life and approach my business.  It is a must read for everyone.
