Regret if you don't read them!? 5 must-read books that will change your life, highly acclaimed by business leaders!
There are many books called masterpieces that everyone has heard of at least once.
In this article, I will introduce 5 "life-changing business books" that I actually had recommended to me after interviewing business leaders!
Every one of these books is packed with wisdom not only for business success but also for improving your life itself.
"Jimidoriki" (The Power of Diligence) - by Toshiharu Kokubu
The author thoroughly explains the idea that "steady, diligent effort is what creates success," starting from scratch.
• Daily effort and the accumulation of trust are more important than "flashy results"
• A book that makes you rediscover the value of working steadily and diligently
It contains the message that "accumulating certain, reliable achievements that anyone can do leads to true success," making it a book where anyone can learn a "royal road success philosophy"!
"Hatarakikata no Son-eki Bunkiten" (The Break-even Point of How You Work) - by Taichi Kogure
Is "if you work hard, you will be rewarded" just an illusion!? A must-read book for reviewing the "balance between work efficiency and results."
This book discusses the importance of knowing the "break-even point of how you work." In other words...
• It is a major misunderstanding that "the more you work, the more you earn"
• By thinking about "where you should put your effort," you can reduce wasted effort and achieve results efficiently
It is a book packed with hints for reviewing how you work, especially for those who want to maximize their work performance.
"Rich Dad's CASHFLOW Quadrant" - by Robert Kiyosaki
"If you understand the flow of money, you can be free in life!"
As a sequel to the "Rich Dad Poor Dad" series, this book is highly acclaimed by many business leaders and investors. It explains the flow of money by dividing it into "quadrants" and conveys how to achieve financial freedom.
What are the 4 quadrants?
1. E (Employee) - The side that receives a salary
2. S (Self-employed) - Your labor leads to income
3. B (Business owner) - You earn income by utilizing the labor of others
4. I (Investor) - You earn income by letting money work for you
By learning the idea that "you are tied down by money in the E or S positions, but you can gain financial freedom by being in the B or I positions," this book is a trigger to think about "which quadrant should I belong to?"
"The Mirror Law" - by Yoshinori Noguchi
"Your life is a projection of your inner self."
This book teaches the secret to success from a psychological perspective that "your state of mind has a major influence on your life."
• "Relationship problems are a mirror of your own heart"
• "It is important to change your own way of thinking rather than trying to change others"
• By re-perceiving all problems in work, family, and life as a "mirror reflecting your own heart," you can improve them dramatically
It is a book that is also useful for resolving relationship and business troubles.
"The 100-Year Life: Living and Working in an Age of Longevity" - by Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott
The modern era is the age of the 100-year life. The conventional life plan of "working until retirement and then living in old age" is no longer applicable. This book explains "new strategies for working and living" that correspond to increased longevity.
• Life will become multi-staged!
→ The era of sticking to one job is over; you need to live while transitioning your career
• Three things are important: "social capital," "human capital," and "financial capital"
→ The key is to build not only income but also learning and connections with people
• The concept of "retirement" is changing
→ How can you build a flexible career for an era where you work for a long time?
This is a book that makes you think deeply about 'how to live in the coming era,' and it is a must-read for business owners and those considering a career change.
