The One Book That Will Change Your Life
It’s not what you think
There are many “you must read this book” lists on the internet. Each list promising that this or that book will change your life forever.
There are many powerful books out there. Selfhelp, business, or health books are all very helpful. You get better ones but also the not so hunky-dory ones! The most popular books ever written start with the Bible on top and then possibly the Quran.
Some other books in the top 10 are Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes, Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien, and a more modern-day book of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by JK Rowling.
There is one thing all these books have in common. No, it’s not just that they are on paper. No, it’s not just that they were written by humans. There is something much more powerful that they don’t have.
You consume them. You read. For the most part, you are passive.
The book that will change that.
Your own book. The book that you write.
My wife’s grandfather was an extraordinary man. He had to take part in World War 2, eat grasshoppers survived, and went on to have five children and died at the age of 92. He had a full life.
