12 More Must-Read Books for 2016 – What separates successes from other people?

By Jerry Bellune

What separates successes from other people?
Jim Rohn said poor people have big TV sets.
Successful people have big libraries.
Cut back on the hours you watch TV.
Make more time to read, learn and grow.
Here are three more books to help you do that.

• How To Win Friends and Influence People
This is the granddaddy of self-development books.
It’s sold more than 15 million copies.
Dale Carnegie has helped thousands gain success.
In it, you’ll discover:
• 6 ways to make others like you.
• 12 to win them over.
• 9 to change them for the better.
Worth re-reading if it’s been some years since you did.

• Leadership 101: What Every Leader Needs to Know by John C. Maxwell
This book draws on John’s other bestsellers.
It focuses on influence, integrity, attitude and vision.
Also problem-solving and self-discipline.
Practical steps help develop true leadership skills.
I also recommend his:
• “Developing the Leader Within You”
• “The 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader.”

• Napoleon Hill’s Keys to Success: The 17 Principles of Personal Achievement
His “Think and Grow Rich” is a success classic.
“Keys to Success” gives you leadership lessons.
He advice is based on his teaching and articles.
This includes mental exercises and self-analysis.
He deals with his 17 principles in specific detail.
I recommend anything by Dr. Hill.
This book is a must for your own development.
