In this short YouTube video, Nick Hutchison shares the three business books that stood out to him after reading 100 titles in the previous year. He highlights $100 Million Money Models by Alex Hormozi, noting that even though he didn’t finish the book, a single money‑model he extracted enabled him to generate six‑figure annual recurring revenue from one campaign. The second recommendation is Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara; Nick met Guidara in 2025, discussed the book, and applied its principles to elevate his 2025 Book Thinkers Live event. The final pick is Outwitting the Devil by Napoleon Hill, which prompted Nick to identify and confront personal resistance and “evil” in various life areas, ultimately helping him overcome those obstacles. He ends by inviting viewers to comment with their own favorite books from 2025.

Chapters

I read 100 business books last year, and here are my 3 favorites. Number 1, we have $100 Million Money Models by author Alex Hormozi. I didn't even finish reading this book, but I found a money model that worked for me. I implemented it and generated 6 figures in annual recurring revenue through one campaign. That's the power of a book. Number 2, Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara. I had a chance to actually meet Will in 2025. And ask him some questions about the book. And that was a really fun experience. But I used this book to make our 2025 Book Thinkers Live event even better. And I love this book. The last one is Outwitting the Devil by author Napoleon Hill. This book helped me realize that there's a lot of evil in the world, and it helped me realize that I can overcome it by challenging it, fighting against it. And I looked for evil and resistance in so many different areas of my life, and I found it. But I got rid of it. Comment down below and share your favorite books of 2025.
