I have 2 books that resonate with me and my work. The first one is a book written by Rick Warren called “The Purpose-Driven Life” and the second one is “Purple Cow” by Seth Godin. These are the books that I can read over and over again, because they always remind me what’s my purpose in this life, in my daily job and what I can do with my projects and work to create a purple cow effect. And guess what? I don’t have the “Purple Cow” book but I’ve read it several times on my laptop or on my smartphone (yeah). But in the future I want to buy it and make it my own by taking my personal notes on it (outlined, writing my ideas). [...] Start with “Purple Cow” from Seth Godin if you want to do something different in your industry. Then subscribe to his newsletter and read everything he publishes on his blog.
Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator
by Ryan Holiday
This year I finished reading “Trust me, I’m lying” from Ryan Holiday and it made me think how to use the media, content and other tactics to help the company I work for to be more present on the internet. I know that Ryan wrote… Read the full quote
This year I finished reading “Trust me, I’m lying” from Ryan Holiday and it made me think how to use the media, content and other tactics to help the company I work for to be more present on the internet. I know that Ryan wrote that book a few years ago and the social media, blogging and online marketing mediums back then were very different, but there were a few simple ideas that made me take my laptop and start working, even in the middle of my reading moment. I believe these are the books worth reading and recommending.

Another book that I love reading and I don’t want to hurry this process of reading is Ryan Holiday’s (any R.H. fan clubs here?) “ Perennial Seller” in which he talks about the projects that last in time and have a long impact in the world. Maybe it’s because I also have a few projects I’m working on and I don’t want them to be just trails in the sand that are washed by the sea.
Confessions of an Advertising Man
by David Ogilvy
Another book that I read on a trip when I was visiting my girlfriend (who is now my wife) is David Ogilvy’s book “Confessions of an advertising man”. It’s a simple book that must be in every marketer’s or ad person's library.
David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants
Buy Malcolm Gladwell’s book “David and Goliath” and read the interesting stories about how the Davids of that moments have defeated the Goliaths.
Creative Confidence: Unleashing the Creative Potential Within Us All
Another book that has helped me in a specific moment was “Creative Confidence”. I don’t remember which part helped me, but I can remember that I had some mornings in which I woke up at 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning just to start my day reading something creative.
