One of my all time favorite books that gives you an inside look at the life of two champion athletes coached by Ben Bergeron. This book reminds you that we don't ever whine, complain or make excuses. I've read it twice so far and plan to read it again anytime life or training isn't going exactly they way I want it to.

Read this book for: Spiritual Growth, Healing, Being Present
Uncomfortable topics explored at a deep level. This book had me in tears multiple times. It puts a mirror in front of your life to date and asks you to observe yourself, your true self. It's deep, not 'woo-woo' but deep. Read this book for a clear way to separate your true self from your past experiences. I plan to read this again. Interesting chapters on dealing with death as well which is something that can make us all anxious as we get older and our loved ones age.

Read this book for: Habits, Time Management, Achievement
This is actually one I'm planning to read again. I felt the content was truly actionable but to really benefit from it long term you have to continue implementing over an over. Our habits are strong, change them is not necessarily hard but it takes detailed attention to that queue and reward so that we actually modify what we were doing to do something else.

Life is full of curveballs and obstacles. Instead of running from them, this book shows why it is important to face them head on. A good intro to concepts of stoicism in my opinion.

Read this book for: Down to earth philosophy, being present
I keep this book on my nightstand after finding it as a recommendation in Tribe of Mentors. Reading the letters written by Marcus Aurelius allows you to take timeless wisdom and see how it could apply to your life. This also makes you realize that despite all of the technology advancements of our time, human beings still do the same basic things over and over again.

Just a quick five to ten minute read in the morning will get you going for the day with sage advice from people who have worked hard and achieved great success despite facing significant challenges. This book includes gems like recommended 'products under $100' from Ferris's interviewees. My favorite are the nuggets of wisdom that come from the quotes these mentors would make into billboards.
