G'day guys,

I'm looking for some recommendations for books, videos or audio that have changed the way you think and feel, not so much  about pick up but mindset, value, self belief and just what it is to be a man.

Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

Cheers all

Gordsy

"The Way of the Superior Man"

"The Way of the Superior Man" and "The Art of War" were two really big book influences on me. I loved them and re-read them every now and then.

atlas shrugs surpasses

atlas shrugs surpasses fountain head, although they are both amazing reads. Ann rand gets pretty polarised opinions, but she is visionary and very talented regardless.
