Good thread, let's hear other gentlemen share their books that helped contribute to building their self-esteeem.

 

[DEEZEDBRAH]

Seneca book on stoicism. Meditations by Marcus A.

 

[FlexpertHamilton]

Echoing the above and would also recommend Epictetus, but M Kiekegaard is probably a good one too though I have not read him yet but I get the impression he thinks everyone has a duty to be their best.

The Bible, I recommended starting at the New Testament but read from the beginning if you want to get the real flavour of our existence and history.

Some books from my shelf that helped me in some way

Outliers by Gladwell
Peak by Ericson and Pool
Human, all too human by Nieztsche
Power of your subconscious mind by Murphy
Feeling is the secret by Neville
Meeting the shadow by Zweig
Candide by Voltaire

Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, by Covey. That is all you need. But then you need the discipline to build these habits. You can't read a book and immediately develop mental toughness... You really don't need a book to do this. Mental toughness is a function of disciple, and discipline can only be achieved with practice.

My advice would be to pick one thing, that you are pretty sure you could not master... then master it. It could be anything from learning to juggle, playing a musical instrument, learning a new language, or to be more productive... complete a professional certification you need to expand your business opportunities.

Books cannot do it. Mental toughness is 100% application. You have to go through adversity. Fighting, sports, competition, rejection, hardships, injuries- they all build it.

This thread is about BOOKS, the other stuff belongs to another thread.
