Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends on It
Kamal Ravikant wrote this book after hitting a low point where his company had collapsed, his health had broken, and he no longer wanted to be alive. He describes making a single promise to himself, to love himself, and then repeating it as a kind of meditation until it started to change how he moved through the world. The book is very short, closer to a long essay, and reads like a letter from a friend who found a way out. He walks through the practices he used, including a simple mantra, a mirror exercise, and a breathing meditation. It is unpolished on purpose, more testimony than program, and has become a quiet cult favorite among founders, athletes, and readers in recovery.
