"A Rich Man's Secret" by Ken Roberts.

Here it is in a nutshell:
"Always stay in the present moment"

'The Alchemist'- by Paulo Coelho

It is a fiction as well as an inspirational master piece. I feel that this book can work wonders in cases where even the motivational best sellers failed miserably.
Some of the sentences from the book really touched me. See a few below.

"When he looked into her dark eyes, and saw that her lips were poised between a laugh and silence, he learned the most important part of the language that everyone on earth was capable of understanding in their heart. It was love...Something that exerted the same force whenever two pairs of eyes met......And when two such people encounter each other , and their eyes meet, the past and the future become unimportant.

" Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity."

The book motivates every person to search for his treasure.

"Every one on earth has a treasure that awaits him...Most people see the worls as a thretening place , and because they do , the world turns out, indeed, to be a threatening place"

...JUST FEW WORDS FROM THIS BOOK...

I am posting a response here because I totally agree that this is one of the most inspirational books ever. It is simplistic and yet so powerful, it is easy to read and is personally one of my favorite books of all time.


myLot reputation of 89/100. limitup (142)  6 years ago

Interesting excerpts that are true.

From a guy's perspective, I prefer to read hands-on how-to type books.

Most guys look at "he looked into her dark eyes..., Tell your heart that the fear of suffering..." and see mushy and impractical self-help nonsense.

I think most of us guys go for humor, reality, and hands on. I think that's why most of us don't care for preachy no-it-alls like Dr. Phil.

Ha ha, I think I'm about to get my first rating (and it's not going to be positive!)

Kudos!

Have you ever read "Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom?

Unless you are cold and turned off completely it would be hard to read this book and not think. It makes you think wonder, and even though it is a fictional story you can not help but look at your own life and the lives of others around you differently.

Divine Guidence by Doreen Virtue

Yes, I have and I found it very though provoking. Many people assume that they know what people are thinking or how they feel. But the truth is unless you really communicate and interact with them. You really don't know anything about them. This book definitely made me have more compassion and empathy for people. It should be in the inspirational section not fiction. Now that you have mentioned this book. I think I'll reread it.


myLot reputation of 97/100. nowment (1186)   ranked 175 out of 9,003 in reading  6 years ago

I know, I am amazed that it is not in the inspirational section. I also after seeing this question want to read this again.

Mine would be Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.


myLot reputation of 89/100. limitup (142)  6 years ago

Good book for beginners, but stay away from "Rich Dad's Guide to investing."

It is extremely vague and unhelpful. He's way out of his element there.

The most inspirational books I've rea dwould have to be 'The Little Prisoner' and 'A Child Called It'. They taught me that life is too short to hide. If you have the chance to tell someone something important, don't put it off. Just do it. If you think it will makes things better, why wait?

"The Alchemist" by someone whose name I've forgotten. It's fiction, about a spanish shepherd boy who decides to chase his dreams, which include finding riches at the Egyptian Pyramids. He takes a rather circuitous route to get there, and the journey takes him many years, but basically the book says that when one chases his dream, the universe opens up a path for him. The way is made easy, and all things come together to help one on the journey.

Nobody said the Bible? I tried to read it, but it was so long and I couldn't make any sense out of it.

But hundreds of millions can't be wrong...could they?

Oh yeah, "Atlas Schrugged" by Ayn Rand.

If you believe communism and socialism have merit, you won't like it. But if you're a fan of good old capitalism, give it a read. It's a good one, even for its monstrous number of pages.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been rumored to show interest in the making of the movie, but Angelina in the role of Dagny? Give me a break (politically speaking, that is).

Oh, yeah. Did anybody else who read Atlas Shrugged pick up a "Dagny is mysterious, Dagny is the perfect woman, all men love Dagny, Dagny is based on me" vibe from the author?
