- One of the key priorities of entrepreneurial success is to continuously invest in your own education. I have never met a truly great entrepreneur who doesn't read books to stay on top of the latest trends impacting their business and the global marketplace as a whole. Today, they may do it via their favorite E-reader or iPad, but make no mistake about—the best entrepreneurs read. It's in this spirit that I strongly recommend five books that I believe are must-reads for the current business environment.

“Talent Is Overrated” by Geoff Colvin should definitely be added to the list. Deliberate practice creates and develops excellence. Think of anyone who has ever excelled at ANYTHING… chances are their achievement is more a function of hard, focused work than innate “talent.” Pick a lane…
