“James Clear's Atomic Habits is the book that changed how I think about small decisions. The idea that you do not rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems, is one of the most important ideas I have ever encountered.” source
“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom. That single idea from Viktor Frankl has done more for me than any self help book ever could.” source
“Ryan Holiday's Ego Is the Enemy should be required reading for anyone who has ever tasted a little bit of success. It is the book I wish someone had handed me before I ever started a company.” source
“Sapiens changed the way I look at everything. Human beings run on stories. Money, nations, religions, companies, they are all shared fictions. Once you see that, you cannot unsee it.” source
“Robert Greene is the greatest living writer on human nature. The 48 Laws of Power is uncomfortable, it is unflinching, and it is one of the most useful books you will ever read, whether you want to play the game or just avoid being played.” source
“If I could give one book to every young entrepreneur, it would be The Laws of Human Nature. Business is not really about products or spreadsheets, it is about people, and Robert has written the definitive manual for understanding them.” source
“Chris Voss taught me that the person who listens the most controls the conversation. Never Split The Difference is not really a book about negotiation, it is a book about how to communicate with any human being.” source
“There are very few books that I have physically re-read. The Almanack of Naval Ravikant is one of them. It is short, it is dense, and every page is a lesson in how to think about wealth, freedom and happiness.” source
“Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow is the book that made me realise how little I actually understood about my own mind. Everything I have written since has been influenced by his work on how humans really make decisions.” source
“Cal Newport's Deep Work is the reason I take my calendar and my attention as seriously as I take my bank account. In a world designed to distract you, the ability to focus is the closest thing to a superpower we have left.” source
“Reading Outlive was one of those moments where you close the book and immediately change how you live. Peter Attia has completely rewritten what I thought I knew about ageing, exercise and how to stay alive for the people I love.” source
“Nassim Taleb gave me a word I did not have before. Antifragile. Not resistant to chaos, but improved by it. Every entrepreneur should understand the difference, because your business, your body and your mind can all be built to gain from disorder.” source
