Trump is one of the reasons I started thinking about this. I remember my dad reading Donald Trump books when I was a kid like 25 years ago lol.

You're either born with the drive to succeed or your not. 18K posts on this ridiculous site means you don't have it. Be content with mediocrity.

'The 48 Laws of Power' and 'Mastery' by Robert Greene.
great book... it's a long read but very informative. A kid I knew let me borrow it from time to time last winter and I'd read a chapter or two every few days.
  There's another one I believe is by the same author, "The 12 Laws of War" I think it was.
