5 books for creative entrepreneurs to read in 2019

Usually entrepreneurs are people who have to be in a constant process of learning: to be able to motivate themselves, to look for and see new trends, to learn new things, to develop their creativity and to move forward successfully.

I read a lot and for me a good book always gives me a lot of new ideas, it helps me to think about new strategies and ways to grow my own business, it helps me not to give up and move on. That is why, celebrating the beginning of 2019, I want to give you my list of the books that impacted me and from which I have taken and I continue to get ideas and motivation for myself.

1. “Hagámoslo” de Richard Branson
   

This was the first book I read when I lost my job and did not know how to move forward. And thanks to this book I understood that while you have the head and desire to try new things, to go ahead and to LIVE the life, in principle anything is possible. I consider it an easy reading book. You will also find interesting information about the life of the founder of Virgin, about how his empire was born and grew. I recommend it to understand that everything is possible and that many things of our life and decisions are in our own hands!

1. “Los hábitos de un cerebro feliz” de Loretta Graziano Breuning
   

Some time ago I became very interested in the subject of how our brain works. In a moment I found a video of the Russian scientist Tatiana Chernigovskaya recognized worldwide for her work in neuroscience and psycholinguistics and then I started to investigate more about how to get my brain to help me in my life and not bother me and make a dent. I realize that I do not understand any of this, we do not know how our brain really goes. The brain itself is a great enigma! But some discoveries and some techniques proposed by scientists, psychologists, neurologists and everyone working on this issue are very interesting. "The habits of a happy brain" is a fairly easy book to read and its author tells us how to recycle the brain to start the chemistry that generates happiness. It also teaches us how to create new habits guiding the brain's electricity to allow it to flow into new ways. In the book there are many exercises and it is simply very curious ..

1. “Esencialismo: Logra el máximo de resultados con el mínimo de esfuerzos” de Greg McKeown

This book is a bestseller and I know why. The author leaves us a very important message: If we are not going to prioritize and decide what really matters in our lives, someone will do it for us. And this has made me reflect a lot on how I carry MY life and MY work.

Our time and energy are very valuable, so you do not have to spend on things that do not matter to us. We all know it, but on many occasions we forget it. So if you want to refresh these ideas, reflect on life and perhaps draw some conclusions that will make a major change in your way of life, look at the book "Essentialism: Achieve maximum results with minimum effort"

1. “The Crossroads of Should and Must: How to Find and Follow Your Passion” de Elle Luna

Unfortunately, it seems that this book has not yet been translated into Spanish, and it is a pity, because it is essential for artists and creative people who want to find their true passion. My translation of the title of this book will be "The crossroads between duty and love: how to find and follow your passion". I think that's how you understand very well that this book is going :)

"Duty" is what society demands of us. And "wanting" we started to value when we started to understand that we live only once and we have to live doing what we love, what we love, with what we can change the world for the best - like ours both the people around us.

This book can be read in English, French, Portuguese. In addition, Elle Luna, the author, has an Instagram account where they can follow her.
