I’ve been devouring books for years — mostly through Audible since 2013. But I never stopped to truly organize them: Which ones shaped me the most? So I mapped my all-time favorites through my personal BoomZeal SCARD values that drive how I live, lead, and build. Maybe one of these will spark something in you too. BOOM! 💥 💡 SOLUTION-ORIENTED ...The ones that rewired how I solve problems and build systems. Traction — Gino Wickman > And the entire EOS series (Shine, Rocket Fuel, The EOS Life, etc.) — the premier framework to run your business and your life. This Is Marketing — Seth Godin > Pretty sure I've listened 10+ times already. Marketing is the generous act of solving someone’s problem, not selling your widgets Becoming Your Own Banker — R. Nelson Nash > Boring as hell… until it unlocks your inner wealth architect. Are you in the banking business? Why not? The E-Myth Seminar — Michael Gerber > ALL TIME FAVE! This recording alone changed the trajectory of my entrepreneurial brain as a teenager. 🤝 COLLABORATIVE ...The ones that prove greatness is never built alone. How to Win Friends & Influence People — Dale Carnegie > Come on, this one needs no explanation. Who — Geoff Smart & Randy Street > The manual for hiring and building teams. Right People, Right Seats. Also see: Who Not How — Dan Sullivan > If you want to go further, stop asking “How?” and start asking “Who?” Team of Rivals — Doris Kearns Goodwin > "The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln" says it all. Leadership in it's truest form. Delivering Happiness — Tony Hsieh > Zappos’ mind-bending culture of service shattered my idea of being “average” 📏 ACCOUNTABLE ...The ones that remind you that no one’s coming to save you. The Fountainhead — Ayn Rand > For my fellow high-integrity contrarians. Build what you believe in, or don’t bother. The Hard Thing About Hard Things — Ben Horowitz > Narrator Kevin Kenerly brings this sucker to life in living color. He makes shit sandwiches taste gooood Buy Back Your Time — Dan Martell
