7 Must Read Books For Entrepreneurs

Self development is a must when growing your business.  The problem I ran into was I didn’t always know what books to read.  So I’ve given you 7 books for entrepreneurs that I really liked to get you started or to keep you going if you’re an avid reader.

I guess that is a lie!  I’m not an avid reader.  In fact, I’m a very slow reader and don’t really enjoy reading.  But that doesn’t stop me from enjoying many books and expanding my knowledge.  I just use audio books.  All these books can be downloaded in audio format or worse case via a CD.

When you’re looking for more books to read or listen to, ask your mentors or ask people that are in groups or classes that you are a part of.  You can also search on Google for “books for entrepreneurs” or ask me for more books and I’ll be happy to get you some more great reads.
