One trait that many successful people have in common is related to their reading habits, and it doesn't matter how they define success or in which field they are successful.
Since most successful people usually share a growth mindset and believe that they can learn from their own mistakes and improve their performance over time, they are eager to get inspired while reading not only history-themed books about the past, but also biographies about other people's remarkable achievements, missteps, and education.
It can be a surprisingly effective way to find new mentors and role models, even if the individual portrayed in the biography or that told their own story in an autobiography is already dead or lived in another time period or geographical area.
Coaching question of the day:
"Whose biography or autobiography could inspire you?"

autobiographies are among the most fascinating books]
