Success Built to Last: Creating a Life that Matters

Recently bought, and already providing loads of insights. Instead of the usual pep-talky book, Success Built to Last interviewed a series of successful people who have stayed successful for more than 20 years, over a 10 year period.

The result is an inspiring book about the rich diversity of ways people have achieved success, not through any predefined roadmap but through common principles they all share.

What I've found most inspiring from this book is the fact that success is rarely a straight line, it's more like a missile that meanders left and right and course-adjusts many times to reach its target.

The Red Lion & The Elixir of Eternal Life

A rarely seen recommendation so here it is If you loved books like The Alchemist, you'll devour this one.
