Books inspire me and have always been my refuge to conflicts in life. Here are the 6 books that challenged my perspectives and wiped of my stringent notions.
書籍給我靈感，在生活中遇到衝突矛盾時書籍是我最好的避難所。以下6本書挑戰我的人生觀，顛覆了我故有嚴苛的理念。
1. The Road Less Travelled by Scott Peck
《少有人走的路》 斯科特·派克著
Simply, buy this book for the path towards enlightenment in a spiritual way that encapsulates your personal growth. This book never gives you easy solutions to the conflicts, it simply says: 「Legitimate suffering is part of life」 and leaves you with better insights to lead a fulfilled life.
簡單地說，這本書封裝了你的心智成熟的旅程，讓你從精神層面得到進步的啟發。這本書從不輕易告訴你面對衝突時的解決辦法。它只是簡單告訴你：「痛苦是人生必不可少的部分」，你所需要做的就是以更好的心態洞悉世事，贏取充實的人生。
2. The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann
《做一個積極的付出者》 鮑勃·伯格、約翰·大衛·曼著
I didn’t even expect that such a small book could make a huge difference in my approach towards life. It simply says, 「Give」 and go on explaining 5 profound laws that directs the mankind and concludes that there is always a truth in the opposite.
我甚至從未期望這樣一本小小的書能使我對待生活的態度得到巨大改變。書中主要闡述了「付出」，同時解析了5大指引人類的定律（終極成功五大定律」：價值定律、收入定律、影響力定律、真實定律和收穫定律），結論是在每個真理背後都有一個相反的定律。
3. Tao Te ching by Lao tzu
《道德經》 老子著
Tao Te Ching is one of the finest books on philosophy written by Lao Tzu, a Chinese philosopher and a poet. It’s profound, intriguing and soul stirring. Read it and get in touch with the enlightening insights that give you enough thrills to pursue your life vigorously.
《道德經》是由中國的哲學家、詩人老子所著，可謂是哲學界最經典的著作之一。其內容深刻、有趣且令人深思。閱讀此書、從中獲得啟發，這些思想會使你在積極追求人生的過程中體驗足夠的快感。
4. The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg
《習慣的力量》 查爾斯·都希格著
I never knew habits play such an important role in shaping our future until I read this book. It simply says, you are what your habits are, and also suggests the proven techniques to generate new habits that alter our lifestyle and eventually our life. A must read for everyone to understand the intricacies of the habits.
在翻開這本書之前，我從未想過習慣在塑造我們的未來方面竟然起著如此重要的作用。書中僅僅說：你的習慣就是你本身所在，它提出行之有效的方法來幫人們塑造新的習慣，改變我們的生活方式，最終改變我們的生活。如果想要了解錯綜複雜的習慣的力量，這是一本必看的書。
5. The power of myth by Joseph Campbell
《神話的力量》 約瑟夫·坎貝爾著
Myths – clues to the spiritual potentialities of human life; this was a revelation.
神話——人類生活精神層面的潛能體現；這是一種啟示。
The Power of Myth is a book based on the conversations between mythologist Joseph Campbell and journalist Bill Moyers. Believe me, it is such an astounding book that gives you a thorough understanding of the intriguing elements of life such as life, death, love, marriage etc. and leaves you spellbound.
《神話的力量》是基於神話學家約瑟夫·坎貝爾和記者比爾·莫耶斯之間對話的書。相信我，這是一本驚人的書，讓你透徹地理解生活眾多部分：如生命，死亡，愛情，婚姻等，令你為之著迷。
6. The science of getting rich by Wallace. D. Wattles

I have my own misconceptions of getting rich till I read this book. All were cleared off and made a huge difference in my life after knowing some of the secrets mentioned in this book. Read it, for it teaches you to become rich, notinstantaneously but strategically.
在讀到這本書之前我對致富有著誤解。但當讀了這本書後，書中提到的部分秘密讓我的理念大為改觀，並使我的生活產生了巨大的變化。閱讀它吧，因為它會教你如何致富，不是立竿見影的，但卻是有策略性的。
