Inspirational Novels and Motivational
Books That Can Magically Change Your Life
|
|
As time passes we will
add and recommend new inspirational novels and motivational books
which are meant to help you discover your own meaning of life. If
you have an addition motivational novel that you'd like to see then
please,
recommend.
Some of these motivational books are well known and others not so
well known. But each has been known to shape the lives of the
readers. We don't necessarily place a judgement on them (one above
the other) but we do suggest you read and learn. Each has many good
things to offer the reader, some more than others. Rather than
duplicate the work of creating a synopsis of the book and novel,
each title links to Amazon.com where you can read about the book,
see what everyone says, and even order a copy if you like. (Of
course we get a commission if you order) |
FICTIONAL - MOTIVATIONAL BOOKS |
 |
The
Alchemist -- Paulo Coelho
An easy evening read, I read this book a few years ago and was
quite entranced by it. It is told as the fable of a young shepard
boy who goes on a quest to find a worldly treasure. From his home in
Spain, he journeys around the world and learns the values of hard
work, and following his dreams. |
 |
The
Celestine Prophecy, An Adventure -- James Redfield
This book practically became a cult phenomenon. This book
introduced me to the concept of Syncronicity. Actually syncronicity
is redefined in this book. A fun read, sometimes it is a little
predictable and I found that the ending needed work. However, if you
haven't read it, you probably should. |

The
Greatest Miracle In The World -- Og Mandino
One of my favorite books of all time. I used to buy this in
paperback and give copies away for Christmas. Once you read one of
Og Mandino's books, you'll start reading them all. His books are
very popular best sellers. They are all very easy to understand and
the story in this one keeps you guessing. |
 |
Illusions,
Tales of a Reluctant Messiah -- Richard Bach
When I was in High School, I read this book. A teacher had
recommended that I read one of Bach's other books, JONATHAN
LIVINGSTON SEAGUL, which is also a good book. However, I chose this
as the better of the two. He has a lot to teach in these pages. |
 |
The
Magic Life - A Novel Philosophy -- Ace Starry
Without a doubt, this is the most important book on this page. The
other's are books that I've enjoyed reading, while this was the one
that I enjoyed writing. It is a story of a young accountant who
meets a street magician and learns from him a philosophy of
following your dreams. |
 |
Mutant
Messages From Down Under -- Marlo Morgan
One of my more recent reads, I found that the story was so
gripping from the first few pages, that I couldn't put it down. |
 |
The
Way of the Peaceful Warior -- Dan Milman
I recently read this and was absolutely amazed at how similar it
was to my own writing. I hope to meet Dan Milman some day and talk
about our writing styles. |
 |
The
Way of The Wizard -- Deepack Chopra
More of a guidebook really. The fiction in this book isn't really
even necessary. |
 |
Zen
And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance -- Robert Pirsig
An amazing book for a thinking person. If you like to ponder big
questions about the nature of human beings, then you must read this
book. This is not an easy read by an stretch of the imagination, and
I don't recommend it unless you are the type that likes to study a
book, not just read it. |
 |
Stranger
In a Strange Land -- Robert A. Heinlein
This book was a gift, that I've truly cherished. Though it is a
science fiction novel, it is a very powerful phylosophy book. I
loved it. |
 |
As
A Man Thinketh - James Allen
Your thoughts and your dreams determine what you are and what you
will be. This little book is meant to stimulate men and women to the
discovery and perception of the truth that they themselves are
makers of themselves, by virtue of the thoughts which they choose
and encourage. |

Autobiography
of a Yogi - Paramahansa Yogananda |

 |
Conversations
with God, An Uncommon Dialogue, Vol. 2-- Neale Donald Walsch

Conversations
with God, An Uncommon Dialogue, Vol. 3-- Neale Donald Walsch

A
Course In Miracles - Helen Schucman
|
 |
How
to Win Friends and Influence People - Dale Carnegy
I love this book. I used to buy it for all my employees. The main
thing I remember from it is that you can get ahead in life by simply
doing a "little" more than the other guy. You don't have
to do great and amazing things. Just simply take care of the little
things and learn to care about the other guy. This is what leads to
true sucess. If you haven't read this book, there are many copies
available on the market. Buy it and read it and pass it on. |
 |
Man's
Search For Meaning -- Viktor E. Frankl
You will be changed by this book. If you aren't then you aren't
breathing. This is the story of a moving personal essay about
Frankl's imprisonment in Auschwitz and other concentration camps for
five years. His view of the struggle for survival and determination
that it comes down to hope is a true revelation. Read this book.

The
Magic of Thinking Big -- David J. Schwartz
|
 |
The
Power of Positive Thinking -- Norman Vincent Peale
|
 |
Real
Magic -- Dr. Wayne W. Dyer |
 |
The
Road Less Traveled -- M. Scott Peck
|
 |
The
Seat of The Soul -- Gary Zukav |
 |
The
7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen R. Covey
This is a wonderful book for managing your life and career. The
thing I learned from this self-help book was a terrific way to look
at time management. If you don't have a scheme for managing your
time, Stephen Covey's book will help. |
 |
Think
and Grow Rich -- Napoleon Hill
The title tells it all. Your thoughts determine your actions and
therefore your success. This is one of the best books ever written
on the power of positive thinking. I cannot recommend this book
enough. When I first got out of college I read this and I was
changed forever. Buy this book and you will not be sorry.

Unlimitied
Power -- Anthony Robbins
Over the years, I've read and listened to a great deal of
self-help type books. Unlimitied Power provides a clear path to
maximizing one's own potentional. Unlimited Power" contains
three different parts: Section I: The Modeling of Human Excellence
Section II: The Ultimate Success Formula Section III: Leadership:
The Challenge of Excellence. Tony Robbins is an excellent motivator.
I highly recommend any of his products. |
