@james_clear @dzyngiri Ditto on this one, it's really good, no-nonsense book on how to improve your life. No chapters on "believing hard enough" or anything like that, just straight to the point advice.
Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki.
I stumbled across him while reading the biography of Steve Jobs :)
I'd say a wonderful one is Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl. It's about a holocaust survivor and his experiences in a concentration camp.
Some great quotes from it:
“Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'.”
“Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue.”
“I recommend that the Statue of Liberty on the East Coast be supplemented by a Statue of Responsiblity on the West Coast.”
@between_team Amazing book, one of my favourites
@between_team @daniel_baum Definitely will check this one out thanks!
@between_team for sure one of the deepest books I had read so far
"Red Notice" by Bill Browder is an awesome true story!
@daniel_baum I actually find reading biographys and stories probably the easiest reads for me! Will check it out :)
@richardfliu It's a must! Captivating business story and all true
Art of War
@tl__robinson The classic!
"They Ask, You Answer" by Marcus sheridan
"Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman.
It shows that we are not as smart and reasoned as we think we are.
Meditations - Marcus Aurelius. A great way to reset your perspective and learn from some timeless words.
