One of my biggest changes in mindset came after reading this one. I was miserable in my current position and was working really hard to get out by using real estate investments as the vehicle. I kept chasing this end goal of being financially free, but was also pretty annoyed that I wasn't there immediately. The book Chop Wood Carry Water helped me take a step back. It helped me, at least rationally, understand that it's about the journey and not so much the outcome. I'm still working on appreciating the journey.
