In the time past, I don't believe in reading, especially books relating principles and morals.

But now, I see that the more you read the more you will be able to see!!!

Those men have experienced what life really is: they understand underlying principles that cause success, good habit etc.

And the fact remains that we cannot live to experience all but rather to learn from their mistakes, challenges as well as their experiences because they have all been there.

I come across this book by Brian Tracy - The Power of Self Discipline

and also:

The Rule of love by Richard Templar.

To say the least: "The reading of these books help shaped my life.".

I will also like to read Richdad and poordad someday.


Please feel free to add yours.

I read life itself. Life is the greatest teacher; if you fail to read life, you will fail in life no matter the number of books available to you. I have read life to the point that I can call myself a graduate of the university of life.

I mostly deal on Christian/Religious books. The Bible is the number one best book and I will continue to dwell in it till my last breath or the Lord's second coming. Let me list my top ten;
1. The spiritual man by watchman Nee.

2. Normal Christian life by watchman Nee.

3. Christian secret of a happy life by Hannah withall smith.

4. How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie.

5. Cold case Christianity by Jim Warner Wallace

6. God's crime scene by Jim Warner Wallace

7. Forensic faith by Jim Warner Wallace

8. Animal farm by George Owell

9. Prayer Bible study course by Kenneth Hagin.

10. What is wrong with being black by Matthew Ashimolowo.

Additional ones;

1. Kneeling Christian by unknown

2. God of all comfort by Hannah withall smith.

3. Secret of a prayer warrior by Derek prince.

More are still coming, in fact reading is life and for life.

Thanks.

God bless.

People claim this book of Moses is magical.

Is it?

Well, the interpretation of "magical" is relative.

How were you able to read and understand the seven book of Moses? Because it was confusing in reading to me not to even talk of understanding. In fact the book was just turnioniown. Loool

You and magic books ehn,hmmm, you tried, well done.

Who Moved My Cheese, The Satanic Bible, The Interesting Life & Times of Olaudah Equiano, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Nigeria (by Richard Bourne) and The History Of The Yoruba People (by Prof. Akintoye) are some I can mention off top.

Never read it fully but what i've read in The Holy Bible gets an honourable mention for shaping my life.
