Can you guys recommend me any solid, mind blowing, practical-use reading material out there?

Have read tons of stuff on business, marketing and advertising and am pretty much tired of those would like something new and fresh that is still useful for life. Like practical aha-moment-shit-that's-right books.

Was thinking of going with Man's Search of Meaning [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0671023373/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER"]Amazon.com: Man's Search For Meaning (9780671023379): Viktor E. Frankl: Books[/ame]

(No I dont need to find meaning in life (maybe) but the description and reviews are pretty darn good.) It's about this imprisoned dude in a concentration camp for 3 years and his perspective of pain, and how that pain was the key to staying alive. Pretty neat if you ask me and can be applied to business any day.

Any recommendations will be appreciated and repped!

Man's Search for Meaning is amazing. But not really business related. Psychology.

However, you should try:

Tim Ferris - The Four Hour Workweek (really talks about the importance of removing yourself from the equation with outsourcing and other methods)

MJ DeMarco - The Millionare Fastlane (just got this two days ago, a quarter of the way through. He writes very well and is funny. I'm liking it so far but haven't gotten to the meat. It was suggested on this forum so I bought it)

Tony Robbins - Awaken the Giant Within (NLP stuff, very good. People say you need to read Unlimited Power first. You don't. I read both.)

The Bible. I guarantee you'll get some amazing marketing/control/mindwashing ideas from it.
