In this week’s episode of Monday Morning Pep Talk, I’m sharing three timeless self-help books that I revisit every year. These books have profoundly shaped my mindset, strategies, and success, and today, I’m breaking down why they deserve a permanent place on your bookshelf. Stick around until the end for a bonus recommendation—a game-changer for anyone looking to reclaim their time and scale their impact. Before we begin, let me remind you of my professional purpose: to help you, the full-service, full-fee advisor, optimize your productivity and become the best version of yourself. Why? Because Happy Advisors Sell More Real Estate. I do this by helping you handle the challenges and opportunities you face every day. As you listen, imagine we’re having a one-on-one coaching session, diving deep into the strategies that will elevate your life and business. As a weekly content creator who tries to editorialize big and complicated ideas into the lowest common denominator, you come to really appreciate well-written books that beautifully describe concepts that you and your fellow entrepreneurs struggle with every day. The 3 books I will discuss with you today hold a prominent place in my library. I try to re-read all 3 every year. I threw in a bonus book that addresses the biggest challenge my advisors and coaching students face—time. I wish I would have written all of them, but I’m glad I didn’t have to because I get to reference them repeatedly. The 3 Books That Guide My Success: The Go-Giver by Bob Burg This transformational book teaches the power of giving over getting, showing that true success comes from creating value for others. Key Takeaway: The Law of Compensation—your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them. Success isn’t about taking; it’s about giving and creating meaningful impact. The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy Small, consistent actions lead to extraordinary outcomes. This book is your guide to eliminating bad habits, building good ones, and staying disciplined. Key Takeaway: Pump the Well. Success requires persistence. Just like pumping an old-fashioned water well, consistency leads to momentum, making it easier to sustain long-term results. The 12 Week Year by Brian Moran & Michael Lennington Revolutionize your goal-setting approach by focusing on 12-week cycles instead of annual plans. This strategy creates urgency, clarity, and consistent action. Key Takeaway: Win the Day. Manifesting your 3-Year Vision starts with winning days, weeks, and quarters to achieve your yearly and long-term goals. Bonus Recommendation: Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell Learn how to delegate low-value tasks, reclaim your time, and build a business that supports your life—not the other way around. Key Takeaway: Calculate your hourly rate to focus on tasks that maximize your productivity and profitability. If these books aren’t already in your library, add them now. And if you’ve read them before, this holiday season is the perfect time to revisit their wisdom. The lessons within can help you create a more intentional, productive, and fulfilling life and business. Thank you for tuning in. Let’s continue building a life and business that are both predictable and enjoyable. 🔍 For more resources, check out my website www.askjimmiller.com and follow @AskJimMiller on SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
