The four hour work week inspires me. Only the title though. I didn't find time to read it, but I look at the cover once in a while. |

I second all of the books mentioned above, one of my favorites is REWORK, Founders at Work and The Art of the Start by Guy Kawasaki. All of these books are easy to read and there are tons of things to learn from them. Another of my favorites is Peopleware by Tom DeMarco and Timothy Lister. It is an excellent book and you'll learn a lot from it. |

"Switch" is a really motivational business book. However, it is more appropriate if you are trying to embrace and welcome the art of CHANGE. -Elle |

Honestly, I get my most motivation out of reading about others succeeding.... so for example I loved the new Facebook book, The Age Of Facebook and the new Google book. Reading their stories really moves you. Ben |

Birth of a Salesman by Carson V. Heady - not only the must-own how-to-sell, motivational tool, but it doubles as a fictional story of its fictional author. Only book of its kind. GREAT read. |

I am partial to A Good Hard Kick in the Ass: Basic Training for Entrepreneurs by Rob Adams. It is all about implementation and execution. |
