You Don’t Have to be Born Brilliant – John McGrath

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

I am not doing a review on this one just yet, as I am currently reading this book WITH a team I am mentoring.

A great way to use this blog for your fullest potential is to get a mastermind group to all read the book at the same time, and all comment on this post so we can all learn at the same time from things we all may have picked up, or some of us may have missed or interpreted differently, but beneficially so.

I may adjust this post as we go, or I may leave it as is, and comment along with the team

John’s a great author, and has DONE IT, and is still doing it, rather than just writing about it. I mean, anyone who is in real estate sales who does not buy John’s books should leave real estate immediately.

Think about it, the guy has read every professional book there is to read, he has applied what he has learned in the field of building a brilliant real estate sales business, arguably the most successful independant agency in Australia, and has summarised what he has learned in a couple of books. Like I said, if you don’t buy and read them, my advice is to leave the industry, as he is spelling out the ‘how to’ for you.

Rich Dad Poor Dad – Robert Kiyosaki

It’s been a while since I read this one, but I’ll go through it again, I just couldn’t NOT have this classic on the blog in its early days.

It is again, a great story about Robert’s lessons in money management with the two men in his life with very different philosophies that illustrate the difference in thinking between the rich and the employees.

It really illustrates the points and was written before Robert was in the business of being a serial author, when, in my opinion, he did his best work.
