8 Books to Build Your Success Foundation
When I was 25 I knew something had to change.
I was an unemployed, drunken bum living in my childhood bedroom.
I knew I needed to go on a success/wealth journey and I figured something out early on.
I needed a foundation for success.
A better mindset. Better habits. Better frameworks. I had to become a better me.
How the hell was I gonna do that?
Books.
Books?
Yes, books.
What I consider foundational books. Each of these should be read with notes taken. But even if you skipped the notes, by the end of these 8 books…you’d be a new you.
1. Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink
Everything starts with taking complete responsibility for your life.
That’s the core concept of this book.
You can’t grow into the best version of yourself, unless you take ownership of your life and its outcomes.
2. Atomic Habits by James Clear
Your entire life is built on your habits.
You don’t even realize it, but everything you do is a habit.
