Looking Out For Number One

Since I started the blog many of my friends and acquaintances have reached out asking me about books. They all want to know what book I can recommend to someone who does not know yet how to empower themselves. It is a very hard question because we are all unique. We all have different things that can trigger our consciousness and our emotions. The best answer should be, just read and keep reading, then one day you will come across that life changing book that is going to make everything clear to you.

From my own experience, I had read many books that touched me, that help shape my view, help me realize how powerful I can be if I have the right mindset. For example, No Excuses by Brian Tracy, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr, and Mind Hacking by Sir John Hargrace. However, the book that touched me in every angle of my life is looking Out For # 1 by Robert Ringer. He wrote this Best Seller in 1977, but the content still applies today. It can affect anyone in any society and culture but most of the book’s content will be more relevant for someone in the American culture. This book is a classic.

The author gives timeless practical advice on looking out for yourself and helps his reader to understand how important it is to look out for their own interests. Ringer does not advocate selfishness, but asks readers to stop expecting anything from other people, and to look out for their own interests. I fully recommend this book to anyone that is not quite sure how to change the direction of their life but is aware that a change is necessary.
