Recommended Tools & Resources

Fellow traveler, you have come across my recommended tools & resources page.

Over the past years, I have come to the conclusion that life can be as wonderful as we want it to be. It is up to us to decide whether we want to just sit and wait for miracles to happen, or go out there and make things happen. The choice is up to us.

The search for something greater inevitably pushed me to improve myself in various parts of life. I began to better take care of my body and my mental well-being. I started a business and grew as a professional in my career. All of this was achieved because I genuinely wanted it and because I invested in myself.

By investing in myself I mean that I am constantly learning. Whether it is reading a book, taking an online or offline course, as long as I gain new knowledge that I can apply, I am open to it.

As a result, I thought I would put together a list of my most recommended tools & resources that could help you on your journey as well. Maybe you want to learn how to meditate, become fit or start your own online business. It really doesn’t matter what it is. From the perspective of happiness and self-development, all areas of life are equally important. As long as you can become today a little better than you were yesterday, you are on the right path.

Blogging:

YI 4K+/60fps Action Camera – Camera that I use for recording my YouTube videos.

Rode smartLav+ – The lavalier microphone that I use in my YouTube videos.

Bluehost – Hosting that I use for my website and that I can recommend to everyone else out there as well. It is really cheap, yet they have a great customer service that always solves all of the issues that I have. Also, if you are not a technical person, then they have a one-click WordPress installation, which is as simple as it gets. It’s the best option if you are just getting started with your own blog. Read more about my blogging experience here.

Grammarly – A grammar checking addon that you can install on top of Chrome for free. It checks your spelling as you type. This is something that no blogger should live without.

Outsourcing work:

Fiverr – On Fiverr, you can get a ton of different services for as low as 5$. They do photo editing, proofreading, marketing, translations, almost anything you can think of. I’ve spent a lot of money on Fiverr, but if I would’ve looked for these services elsewhere, it would’ve cost me hundred times the amount. I highly recommend Fiverr.

Upwork – A website where you can hire virtual assistants to do some of the tedious work for you. You can pay them by the hour or based on projects. Any successful online business will require you to hire a virtual assistant sooner or later.

Freelancer – Same as Upwork.

99designs – A place where you can have your brand/blog logo designed by professionals.

Business/online marketing tools & resources:

Payoneer – Not all marketplaces will pay you an income if you don’t have a U.S. bank account. To get around this problem, you can use Payoneer. It allows you to have a bank account there without actually having to go through the hassle of officially opening one. A very convenient service for international marketers/sellers!

Udemy – The world’s largest destination for online courses on any topic.

Affiliate Marketing Mastery – Another amazing online course on how to create a blog, a brand around it and how to make money blogging. Unfortunately, the program is closed for new members most of the time. But if you are interested and it’s closed, just drop me an email. Maybe we can do something about it.

Books:

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker – One of the first books that I read on business that truly shifted my view of how I look at money.

Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki – My absolute all-time favorite of the business books. This one is not even so much about business, but rather how we look at money. If you belong to the group of people that thinks that money can negatively change your personality, then you must read this book. 

The Millionaire Fastlane by Mj DeMarco – How to think like an entrepreneur-millionaire, not the average employee.

Maximum Achievement by Brian Tracy – A foundational book for self-development. A step-by-step blueprint for success.

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill – The book was originally published in 1937, but it’s so great, that its core principles are still just as valid today. Another one of those books that cannot be defeated by time.

The Success Principles by Jack Canfield – Another book on self-development and self-actualization that teaches us to live every day with happiness and the desire to change for the better.

Linchpin by Seth Godin – This book at the time had a huge impact on me. Seth Godin is a very known marketer and an entrepreneur, and in this book, he explains the difference between just “doing work” and making art. He makes us believe that we are not just simple screws in a larger system, but we are all remarkable and capable of making a difference. 

Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl – A true story of a man that survived the Nazi concentration camps. One of Viktor E. Frankl’s core beliefs was that people do not mostly seek pleasure in life, but rather meaning. He also believed that suffering is something that we can learn to cope with. The story of the book is truly horrifying, but it’s history, and it’s an example of how strong one can be. Everyone can benefit from the message in this book.

Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso – A Buddhist approach to happiness. Many valuable meditation techniques laid out here. This is the only book in my life that I have read more than twice. I think enough is said with that. I have a post related to this book and meditation here.

All of Carlos Castaneda books, beginning with the Teachings of Don Juan – A dip into the world of supernatural and the unknown. These are classics and it’s hard to explain what’s so special about these books. But if you like to think about what is beyond our daily life and even death, then you will definitely find these books meaningful. Everybody finds their own something special in Castaneda’s books. I have a post related to this here.

Models: Attract Women Through Honesty by Mark Manson. Honestly (just like in the title), the best book on relationship advice for men! I’ve read it multiple times, and I must say, no other book on dating comes even close to Models in the amount of gems that it holds. Straight to the, no BS, no fluff.

Health:

Athletic Greens – Superfood that combines many different ingredients into one. Very nutrient dense. It’s pretty much all you need to achieve maximum health from nutrition. 

Inspiration, motivation and success:

100 Day Challenge – You can have wishes and goals, but what good are they if you don’t take action? With the 100 Days Challenge, you will make a quantum leap in life and fast-track your goals. This program has helped thousands of people to change.
