Atomic habits is a life-changing book for me.

The book does a great job explaining that success depends so much on these small habits that we do every day, no matter who we are and what our goals are.

It really helped me to overcome my depression-like feelings and procrastination.

That is why I intend to read this book once a year, to remind myself that little changes can make big differences over time. And I just keep recommending it to everyone.

If I could recommend just one book that everyone should read, it would be "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. It's a classic novel that explores themes of racism, prejudice, and injustice, and its message is just as relevant today as it was when it was first published.

"Mastery" by Robert Greene. I really believe that it will help you understand all about passion, find yours and actually start working towards becoming a master in it.

If you ask me, achieving the above can be pretty satisfying :)

Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss

It completely changes my view about negotiation. I thought of negotiation as two business people trying to close a deal with compromises or an employee getting a higher salary. In reality, we negotiate when interacting with people, whether getting a hotel upgrade or asking for a discount. The best part about negotiation is that it's a learned skill. So long as you put enough reps in, you will be decent at it.

I've read 320 books in the last 3.5 years, and I've got so many to recommend on many different topics from leadership to behavioral psychology to self-help.

Malcolm Gladwell, Jocko Willink, Simon Sinek, Eric Barker, and David Goggins are all solid authors to start with!
