✎ Top leaders read books to gain wisdom, save time, and build massive companies. In a country where a quarter of adults do not finish a single book all year, reading gives you a giant advantage. Steve Jobs loved the Autobiography of Yogi so much that he read it every year and gave copies to everyone at his funeral. Elon Musk turned to comic novels like The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy to ask better questions when starting SpaceX. Warren Buffett spent decades following the investment principles in Benjamin Graham’s classic book, while Bill Gates still rates a 1960s collection of business stories as his all-time favorite read.
✎ Novels and personal stories also guide famous leaders through tough decisions and company challenges. Jeff Bezos uses the life lessons in The Remains of the Day to avoid future regrets, while Jack Ma used martial arts books by Jin Yong to build courage and company culture at Alibaba after getting rejected from dozens of jobs. Jay-Z uses books about the soul to make honest business choices, Satya Nadella turned Microsoft into a multi-trillion-dollar company by teaching employees a growth mindset from Carol Dweck, and Larry Page learned how to turn inventions into a real business by reading Nikola Tesla’s life story. Even Oprah Winfrey built her career and famous book club by sharing Alice Walker’s famous novel, and Naval Ravikant uses physics books to understand how progress works.
✎ Learning fast requires you to break big problems down to their fundamental truths instead of just copying others. Elon Musk uses first principles thinking to build rockets and views knowledge like a tree, learning the main trunk and big branches before trying to master the tiny details. To learn like top entrepreneurs, you must focus on one core skill, chunk your time into small focus blocks, and accept the pain of being a beginner. By focusing deeply on one thing, pricing your skills higher, and taking action through repetition, you can build new neural pathways and turn your knowledge into real success.
