I know the Prince and the Art of War are core, but what else if you are extremely ambitious?

>A history of economics
>By Genghis Khan
Economists are morons.

If you’re extremely ambitious you don’t read, you act. While you act you observe your short comings and read strategically to learn how to overcome them ie you read a book on communication or how to build a data architecture from scratch. Everything else is cope and performative.

>acting with no plan
That's called recklessness unless you think you can free climb Mt. Everest with no oxygen tomorrow because the only constraint is le willpower then two hours in you read the climbing manual you brought and realize you've set yourself up to die

Ambitious people are the worst and always much stupider than they think they are. The disgusting greed is always obvious.

You don't need many books. Maybe influence by cialdini, and that other book of his. That one book by Dale Carnegie on friends, but only if youre not a hyper autist and already have a social circle & know how to talk to people. If youre here then youre probably a blocked up virgin who is too in his head to take action, so read war of art also. The easiest way to succeed in the corporate world is to go to a target college for whatever branch of work it is you aim for, join the most prestigious social clubs you can - imo 2-3 prestigious ones is enough, usually these are like consulting societies, ib societies, etc., also throw in 1-2 related to your specific career interests (ESG, International Relations, whatever floats your boat). Do sports, preferably something like rowing, badminton or equestrian sports, the exact ones will vary by college and country I suppose, just feel out which one has the most nepo babies where you live. Do gym so you can look good, dress so you fit in. Follow the same sports and social events as the people whose circle you aim to enter. Go to every event, mingle like crazy, go to every party, mingle like crazy, organize events - I cannot stress this one enough, get involved in organizing events, this will give you a much greater leverage than any other project you can do at college level unless you're a stem autist, but then you wouldn't be asking this question. Get an internship as early as possible, by any means necessary, preferably a prestigious one, but you probably cant if youre asking this question on 4chan, so just get any shitty internship at a big company in your first semester, even if you have to suck dick to get it. I advise getting into consulting if youre a retard with no direction, even a spring intern experience or something like that will help you get a normal job later on. In general I think it's good to aim at the most prestigious names in your industry at the start, even if you dont think youre gonna get in. Also important, try and froantload your college courses so you can work full-time in your third or fourth year of college. Once you have a job, you can start backing away from your responsibilities in the student societies but still hang around and be present, even if only by going drinking once a month or so, and opportunities will fall in your lap. As for work, every position is different, but if you constantly underpromise and overdeliver, carefully manage your workload so you do as little work as possible without hurting your image, build relationships with people, and constantly look for opportunities and better options, you'll be fine I think

You just need to be born in the right caste.

Lol. Speak for yourself.

>>25544679
you're asking for career advice on fucking 4chan of all places buddy, not exactly man of action behavior.

>>25544685
I only post here because I was banned from reddit and I hate social media. We are not the same.
>>
>>25544686
youre damn right we are not the same, you're retarded and have a chip on your shoulder, I have a good life and tried to give you some advice. Just give up, everybody will smell the stink of desperation wafting off of your unwashed plebeian body. In the best case scenario, the final fruit of all your effort will be an office drone job at KPMG making 1.5x the national average, shaking with fear and anger at the thought that somebody will look down on you for not having enough of a big boy job, so you'll plump yourself up, both metaphorically, as in making yourself seem more important than you really are, and literally, from all the processed shit and booze you will be stuffing down your face to drown out the despair of a life wasted. Many such cases!

I don't care if you read it, I'm past trying to get through to you. I pity you, who mistakes his retardation for superiority.
