I am not a share market freak! However, who does not want to earn some money? When we hear business books, the first thing that comes to mind is books about making money in the stock market. However, this notion is flawed and eerie. Business is not only about making money. It is equally about building something from the scratch, earning trust, making decisions and taking wise steps that lead to evolution and development. So, when we hear about business books, we should think beyond money. Young people want to start their own ventures. Grown-ups, in their 40s and early 50s, want to build a corpus of funds for their retirement years. Students, graduates and just-out-of-university adults want to excel at their jobs and eventually begin something on their own. And, luckily, for everyone, there is a book to help… in fact, there are many books to help. Below is a list of books that will help people with varied expectations.

1. Before You Start Up by Pankaj Goyal: This is a book for those who want to dream big, achieve it and establish themselves as leaders. However, it does take something to do all these. What? Why? How? When? There are many questions that this book answers. The author is honest enough to acknowledge that he is not a famous celebrity or successful entrepreneur himself. In a world where everybody is busy bulking the CVs, Pankaj Goyal has been honest with his readers. And so will the book! Get a copy of this book from Amazon India right now – click here to get a copy
