Daniel Negreanu Shares His Top 5 Book Recommendations

Poker legend Daniel Negreanu recently shared his thoughts on five books he read over three months. The first book he read was The Soul of Money by Lynne Twist, which he found particularly relevant to poker players. Negreanu highlighted the book's insights into the disconnect between the value of money and the reality of life, especially for poker players who often deal with plastic chips rather than real money.

The second book Negreanu read was The 8th Habit by Stephen R. Covey. He noted that this book, while not as impactful as the others, offered valuable insights into communication and conflict resolution, particularly in the poker industry where differing opinions are common.

The third book was Infinite Possibilities by Deepak Chopra. This book delves into the concept of thoughts as material entities, a theme Negreanu found intriguing and applicable to his poker strategy. He emphasized the importance of positive thinking and avoiding negative self-talk.

The fourth book on his list was The Traveler's Gift by Andy Andrews. Negreanu praised this book for its engaging storytelling and the seven life lessons it imparts, recommending it to anyone looking for an enjoyable and insightful read.

The final book Negreanu read was The War of Art by Steven Pressfield. This book explores the obstacles that prevent people from achieving their goals and offers strategies to overcome them. Negreanu found some of the ideas in this book particularly useful for personal growth.
