"The Lean Startup" by Eric Ries has had a profound impact on my professional growth, providing invaluable insights on entrepreneurship and fostering a mindset of continuous innovation and improvement.
Hey Hashir, check ‘Atomic Habits’ by James Clear 👌
had a profound impact on my professional growth is "Deep Work" by Cal Newport, as it taught me invaluable strategies to cultivate focus and productivity in a world filled with distractions, enabling me to achieve higher levels of performance and fulfillment in my work.
@jose_tho12 That's amazing! "Seema like a game-changer. Thank you jose for the top-notch recommendation!
Shoe Dog by Phil Knight
Nike's origin story. Incredibly inspiring!
"The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life" - it's not a recent book, but I reread it often and always discover something new and useful
@hashir_ahmed1 wow, I hit the target:) then I can also recommend "The Power of Full Engagement" by Jim Loehr - it saved me from burnout about 10 years ago
The one thing - Must read if you have (or don't) priorization issues.
Reinventing Organizations: A Guide to Creating Organizations - Frederic Laloux
Black Box Thinking - Matthew Syed
"Finite and Infinite Games" by James P. Carse
It's the book that inspired Simon Sinek to write "The Infinite Game" (read this one too)
Both are great and show you how competition is not the way, and defeating your competition is not the game, growth and constant adaptability ans survival is.
It's the survival of the fittest, and the fittest is the most adaptable, not the srongest in a given trait, that can survive everywhere :)
