Books

Don't you love to read a novel that is so good you can't put it down? I really enjoy delving into new world through the imagination of other people. Some of the best books I've read are based on real life, but has the form of fiction. One such book is Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts.

I also enjoy reading non-fiction about business, personal growth and budo.

Updated Version of the 4-Hour Workweek

My favorite non-fiction book this year has been Tim Ferriss' The 4-Hour Work Week. In December this year, the book will come out in a new, expanded version, and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

This book is actually what got me started on changing course in life. I want more out of life, and by using the principles in Tims book, I believe I can get it. That's not saying I will only work 4 hours a week. Not by far - but that's not even the intention of the author. If you haven't read the book, or at least heard about it, I strongly encourage you to take a look at it. He's got some really out-of-the box thinking going on. Tims love for and approach to languages is something I loved from the first minute and I've started doing some language reactivation of Italian and German following his principles. More about that in a later post.

The new version of The 4-Hour Workweek includes:

  • More than 50 practical tips and case studies from readers (including families) who have doubled income, overcome common sticking points, and reinvented themselves using the original book as a starting point
  • Real-world templates you can copy for eliminating e-mail, negotiating with bosses and clients, or getting a private chef for less than $8 a meal
  • How Lifestyle Design principles can be suited to unpredictable economic times
  • The latest tools and tricks, as well as high-tech shortcuts, for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either

That's more than a 100 pages of new, cutting-edge content.
