Simon Sinek describes himself simply as an optimist, and it shows, from his YouTube videos to his writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Start With Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action<\/em> is an awesome read for young business professionals and entrepreneurs, particularly for its simplicity\u2014in this book, he compares two polar-opposite methods to influence behavior: manipulation and inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re starting a small business or becoming a new parent, Sinek discusses how to become a great leader through inspiration. He introduces us to his concept of the Golden Circle, a bullseye-shaped diagram with the question \u201cWhy?\u201d at the center, more important than the common questions of \u201cHow?\u201d and \u201cWhat?\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An inspiring read from an inspiring, inspired mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Find it on<\/strong>: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/7108725-start-with-why\" target=\"_blank\">Goodreads<\/a> \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2KCNdBm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon<\/a> \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3aISUZ2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Audible<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <em>Lost and Founder: A Painfully Honest Field Guide to the Startup World<\/em> by Rand Fishkin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a writer for the internet, Rand Fishkin has been one of my best mentors. His weekly Whiteboard Friday SEO advice instructed me on best practices in his signature, friendly-and-helpful tone. As Julie Zhou, VP of Product Design at Facebook, puts it: &#8220;Rand Fishkin is like the industry friend we all wish we had &#8211; funny, warm, and refreshingly honest about the rollercoaster ride that is founding your own company.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Lost and Founder<\/em> is a great read for those of you waking up one day to find you\u2019re a startup owner or those of you dreaming of starting your own business in 2021 and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Find it on<\/strong>: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/35957156-lost-and-founder\" target=\"_blank\">Goodreads<\/a> \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3bMb2m2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon<\/a> \u2022 <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/books.google.pl\/books\/about\/Lost_and_Founder.html?id=VktTDwAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\">Google Books<\/a> \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2VGtI18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Audible<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-background\"><strong>Related Read<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/niche-social-media-sites\/\">10 Niche Social Media Networks to Join in 2022<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. <em>How To Win Friends and Influence People<\/em> by Dale Carnegie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you dismiss this ancient tome with an \u201cOK, Boomer,\u201d hear me out. (Actually, Carnegie was a member of the <em>Lost Generation<\/em>, so you might say \u201cOK, Loster,\u201d but I digress.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Written in 1937, this book remains one of the most important books for aspiring entrepreneurs and startup founders. It\u2019s packed with advice that is still just as relevant today, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t be afraid of enemies who attack you. Be afraid of the friends who flatter you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any fool can criticize, complain, and condemn\u2014and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And much more like that.
