3 Books that I had the most influence on me.

Most of the books that made an impact to me is ever class I have taken and their required reading material. Seriously, you learn so much about how things are in our world by taking more and more classes and reading different material. But to think about 3 books that you could find anywhere, here are some to look at:

Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T Kiyosaki

This book teaches people the lessons that Robert Kiyosaki had as a kid growing up in the business world. Many people don't know, and sadly don't care about business and the intricacies about them. This book tells a story how business affects themselves, from networking and how it makes you realize that importance, the basic common sense about an economy, and skill to live in today's society rather than work.

How to Master the Art of SELLING by Tom Hopkins:

Tom Hopkins is a world famous salesman and has taught many how to communicate to one another. Many should not see this book as strictly being a sales person, it helps one interact with anyone. Too much have I seen people of my generation give up business opportunities for themselves, or just good friendships, or to acquaintances because they couldn't communicate. This is a great read to better yourself at communicating no matter how confident you think you are because we are all lacking some fundamentals and this develops a good base at any age.

The Digital Photography Book by Scott Kelby:

This 3 book series is insightful to the use of a digital cameras with fascinating straightforward descriptions along with a picture on each page to effectively visualize the tricks of photography. The series by far and taken my life to new levels allowing me to visualize and capture the world to share with my family and friends and hopefully my own family to show the history of my life. Written in a style that gives you the sense you are walking with a friend who is a photographer as you are anxious to ask questions, each page in each book covers one aspect of photography to better any ones skills.

  2. I like the first book you chose and I chose it as well on my list. Networking is key to becoming successful in business and the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad gave me a lot of tips on networking. I also learned a lot about value of investing from that book.
