The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life by Mark Manson.

We’ve heard people saying this is one of the best books they’ve read. And we have to admit, the title sells this book to anyone. And if you read this article written by Mark Mason, we bet you are curious to see how the rest of the book is. As good as the article, we tell you. And the fact that this book teaches us how to embrace our fears, our faults to begin finding the courage, and honesty, that we need using a language that could be called raunchy, just to give it a bit of humor keeps engaged.

Shoe Dog: A Memoir by the Creator of Nike by Phil Knight

This book is recommended by Bill Gates. And that would be enough, but the truth is that this book is so well written, so exciting and interesting that you really miss a great read. Especially that Knight tells us his story, warts and all. It is one of the best choices for those who want to head into business since it is such an inspirational book.
