In this episode, Rachel and Erin reveal which books made an impactful impression on their lives. First, they uncover which books were most helpful in getting their businesses up and running. Rachel says The Four Agreements had such a profound impact on her. The agreements are to be impeccable with your words, don’t take anything personally, don’t make assumptions, and always do your best. Erin believes Think and Grow Rich is the number one all-time best business book. Another great read by Napoleon Hill is Outwitting the Devil. Erin was astonished by the number of people who are drifters – people who cannot think for themselves and react to what is given to them. Stay tuned to hear the rest of the best reads from Erin and Rachel.
