I read 66 biographies last year— Here are my top 10!

So like the title says, I read sixty six biographies last year. I did made sixty six New episodes in two thousand twenty one. A founders podcast, based on the sixty six biographies I've read. And so in total in the entire four years that I've been doing Founders Podcast, I've read two hundred and thirty five biographies of entrepreneurs and there's two hundred and thirty five episodes in the archive. And so I had this idea, I was like, you know what? People don't know exactly where to start.

And so it's like I'm gonna make a top ten list. for the six out of the sixty six biographies I read in two thousand twenty one. I'll make a top ten list. uh with short descriptions on why I think You should listen to the to these episodes and then if you're interested, read the books.

Uh, they're they're a top ten, but it's not necessarily this is you know, the first one I'm gonna tell you about it's not necessarily the number one. It's really hard because there d by there's a reason why the sm the the smartest and most productive people to ever live. Um read biographies. And it's because reading biographies is some of the most actionable and educational reading you can do. And it's something I'm just completely obsessed with. So I can't really pick say, Oh yeah, this one's better than that one. It it just depends on where you are in life and w what impact uh like th these l these stories have on you. So I'm I made this ten this top ten list right now based on how these books impacted me this year. And even though the books stay the same, you change as a person. So if I had to go back through let's say next a year from now, I had to go back through and lit and and rank all the ten uh rank only ten of the out of the sixty six biographies I read in two thousand twenty one, the list might change.
