Then, people were able to purchase LP records or audio cassettes with motivational material, including motivational quotes. Now, we have YouTube with tons of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this post, we will focus mainly on audiobooks. The good thing about the internet is that many books are also available for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what are the best motivational audiobooks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It all depends on your preferences. In this post, you will find a list of audiobooks that, in my opinion, are the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will mention books that I have read or listened to and will explain a bit about each one. At the end of this post, I will leave an open discussion. I am sure you have also read some great books, and it would be beneficial for everyone if we can share our experiences with such literature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me start with the very first book I stumbled upon back in 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was an audiobook, accompanied by a PDF, so I read and listened at the same time to have a better understanding. I also had a USB in my car, so whenever I was driving for a couple of hours on the highway, I would listen to this audiobook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book was The Law of Success in 16 Lessons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"firstHeading\">The Law of Success in 16 Lessons by Napoleon Hill<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"262\" data-src=\"https:\/\/setaffiliatebusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/The-Law-of-Success-e1599408135198.jpg\" alt=\"Top Motivational Audio Books\" class=\"wp-image-11276 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 200\/262;\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I think I don&#8217;t have to introduce Napoleon Hill to you. <br>Not that I knew him personally; what I mean is that he is probably the most famous author in the literature on self-improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book was published in 1938. However, it originally consisted of 15 separate brochures or pamphlets, and only afterward did Hill create a single book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we have an updated version available that includes 17 lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe you can also download the PDF of the book. <br>Together with the audiobook available on YouTube, you can both listen and read this intensive course on self-improvement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also find the entire book, lesson by lesson, at this link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get through all the volumes of the book, be prepared for it to take more than 20 hours. However, this course is not something you can fully comprehend in just 20 hours. As you will hear, it is better to listen to some lessons several times, ideally with a pen and notebook in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This course is comprehensive, and Napoleon Hill wanted to include every detail.
