Give how much I read, I thought I may as well share my curated favourites. This page is designed so you open a few tabs, then go through them, I have hooked up Amazon affiliate links, so if you grab anything, it helps me get a few more books \ud83d\ude42 I hope you don’t mind.<\/p>\n

If you’re not sure where to start, simply buy all the books in a section, why not? Investing in yourself is the best investment (and return) you can make, an extra $30-$50 will only return dividends.<\/p>\n

My most recommended books<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The War of Art, by Steven Pressfield<\/a><\/p>\n

This talks through the process of creating something from nothing, it just gives you that prod you need to keep at it. Another second read by Steven is Do the Work<\/a>, also excellent.<\/p>\n

Steal Like An Artist, by Austin Kleon<\/a><\/p>\n

This encourages us all to\u00a0collect\u00a0and then curate ideas that interest US. You, being the key filter, it\u2019s about the things you like, that inspire and motivate you. As these are what help provide the input to all the work we create.<\/p>\n

The Dip, by Seth Godin<\/a><\/p>\n

Tremendous read, it\u2019s for the moments when you\u2019re evaluating, should I continue or leave this project. Often I find, the projects that you care about the most, to then read this book are the ones that you should absolutely stick with. But buy it, give it a read now, then revisit as you need to.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For people on the start of a journey<\/strong><\/h2>\n
