This was the year where I finally transition from Dev to Product so, the book that most inspired me to do it was "Product Management in Practice" the real life examples helped me a lot in the interviews and in my new Job position.

Since you're here, I'm sure you will enjoy "Product-led Growth" by Wes Bush as much as I do. I read it twice in a row. It's super helpful and actionable.
Some of my favorites in 2019:
- Lost and founder by Rand Fishkin (Moz's founder)
- Start small, stay small by Rob Walling (Drip's founder)
- Make by Pieter Levels
- Deep work by Cal Newport

The 5AM Club: Own Your Morning, Elevate Your Life by Robin Sharma. Once you read that, you'll improve your morning routine by maximizing your productivity, boosting your health and protecting your serenity from dire complexities in life.
Company of One by Paul Jarvis really resonated with me.
Check out Atomic Habits, can greatly simplify and put on autopilot your day to day

@unrealartemg Thank you Artem. Can't help but read after your recommendation words. Added to the reading list :)
I found 'Zero to One' and 'The Hard Thing about Hard Things' the most educational & motivational, can't wait to get my hands on the new 'What You Do is Who You are' by B.Horowitz 😻
