6 Picks From My Reading List

When I tell people I don’t listen to the radio or watch TV, they often stare at me in utter disbelieve — wondering what kind of beast I am to live without “news”. The thing is, I’m very selective on what I consume, whether it be food or information. And when it comes to information, I prefer to be selectively ignorant on issues that I consider not essential to my personal growth.

So yeah, I don’t own a TV or radio, and it’s been long time since I even held a daily newspaper. But I do consume a huge amount of information on selected topics and from carefully chosen sources. Today I’m sharing with you 6 of my favorite blogs on personal development. Trust me, I’ve read every single article on these blogs, and I’m subscribed to their mailing list and/or RSS as well. Here we go:

  • I Will Teach You To Be Rich: A blog on personal finance (banking, saving, budgeting and investing) and personal entrepreneurship, authored by Ramit Sethi, recent graduate of Stanford and co-founder of PBWiki, a Silicon Valley (USA) startup.
  • Escape From Cubicle Nation: How To Go From Corporate Prisoner To Thriving Entrepreneur, authored by Pamela Slim
  • StevePavlina.com: Personal Development For Smart People, by Steve Pavlina.
  • Get Rich Slowly: Personal Finance For Real People
  • LifeHack: A frequently updated blog providing news and articles to hellp you to get things done in a faster pace.
  • SiteSell Blog: The SiteSell Blog is, IMHO, the single most important Internet marketing resource for small businesses. Dr. Ken Evoy and his SBI! team dig through the mess out there and give you only those gems that matter, so you’ll stay focused on building your business instead of chasing every single SEO trick that comes around.
