NOTE

Why You Should Read Biographies

Reading biographies provides insights into the personality types and behaviors of high performers throughout history. By studying the lives of successful individuals, we can understand that there is no formula for success at the highest levels of entrepreneurship. Biographies offer a glimpse into the habits and influences that shaped these individuals, such as Kobe Bryant's dedication to studying Michael Jordan. Reading biographies is essential for a complete understanding of human life, as it allows us to learn from the remarkable stories of others. To gain key insights and lessons, it is recommended to read at least one biography per month along with listening to two episodes of the founder's podcast per week. This combination provides a wealth of knowledge from history educators and deepens the understanding gained from biographies. Reading biographies is not a casual pursuit, but a serious endeavor pursued by history's greatest entrepreneurs.
