Best Inspirational Books: For When You Need to Get Inspired
Table of Contents
There have been many moments in my life when I reached a crossroads, and I felt like the entire world was caving in around me. Where do you go when you aren’t sure that there is a reason to keep moving at all?
Finding inspiration in those dark hours can be very difficult, and everyone comes to these moments in their life when they feel like they cannot move forward ever again. I’ve wasted a lot of time in these time traps, remaining stagnant and learning nothing.
Inspirational books cover a vast array of topics, and there’s nearly always a book that I can pick up to help me when I’m feeling trapped, overwhelmed, sad, or just simply lost. Inspiration isn’t always about becoming some popular or huge figure in the world; often, it’s about just finding and becoming yourself again.
Reading inspirational books more frequently brings lots of benefits in your life, including:
- Re-learn that hard work pays off, but you have to do the work.
- It’s easier to remember that you’re not alone when you find an inspiring story that connects with your own story.
- You can learn not only from your own mistakes but from someone else’s as well.
- You can more easily cope with failure and use each failure as a fresh place to grow from.
- You have a better outlook on life and your purpose in general.
Are you interested in bringing some of those benefits into your life just as I brought them into mine?
Start by reading some of the best inspirational books! The following books are all recommended as great sources of inspiration when you need something more.

Rich Dad Poor Dad
The funny thing is that the books that had the biggest impact (like my Verne’s favourite) are not necessarily the best books, objectively speaking. They were good enough to present a new worldview that I was not aware of. Timing probably was more important than their intrinsic literary qualities. They “managed” to fall into my lap at the right time. Such a book was Robert Kiyosaki’s “Rich Dad Poor Dad”, a mediocre book by my standards of today, but deeply inspirational by the ones from yesterday.
