    I like and find it important to read books to keep me motivated, teach me and inspire me with my dreams and goals, especially when working for youself and doing it alone. Today I came across this link via the CrowdSpring blog – which i am going to add to my wishlist of books i’d like to read..

    Delivering Happiness is an outstanding book for anyone who wants to better understand the turbulence of a startup and the effort and personal sacrifice needed to succeed.


    The book also offers many lessons about building a company’s culture and the tremendous advantages that good culture (and happiness) can bring to a company struggling to survive. The business concepts in the book aren’t unique, but the stories are relevant and contain many important lessons for startups, small businesses and even large companies who are focused on differentiating their products and services.

    • ]]>     I am currently catching up to my external studies, Diploma in Commercial Arts (Graphic Design) at CATC. Am currently 3/4 thru my second assignment, and peeked at the next section which is Produce Electronic Design (Fundamentals).

    The initial three books i need to buy are:

    All the books above have a DVD/CD


    Each book is about the AUD$50.00 mark – so i am currently looking online amongst all the bookshops who has the best deal/prices including postage costs. I also looked for it on Ebay, but at the present moment no one in Australia seems to be selling it.

    Also available at Amazon

    The online bookshops that i am comparing with are:

    • StudentDiscount.com.au
      • $141.90 + $9.95 p/h : $151.85
    • Book Depository
      • $ $127.22 + free shipping : $127.22 <– i purchased!
    • SoftwareTime.com.au
      • $141.90 + $9.95 p/h : $149.91
    • Fishpond.com.au
      • $149.91 + free shipping : $149.91
