Part of my life’s mission is to help other people live better lives. I want you to learn, grow, and improve.
One of the best ways of doing that is through learning from the best in the world. Books offer valuable knowledge on specific topics. You can grow and improve in any area by reading books.
To aid you on that journey, here is a comprehensive reading list of books that I personally recommend. These books each have a link to where you can purchase, and are not ordered in any particular way.
If you’re stuck for choice, I recommend either ‘The Chimp Paradox’ or ‘GRIT’.
If you want to optimise your reading time and never reread a book again, check out the post on the Key Notes System.
