Living Fearless
Fear isn't the reason you don't take risks. You don't take them because you lack identity.
Never Split the Difference
Humans don't make logical decisions. Tap into their emotions, and you'll get anything you want. Working people is a science.
Thinking, Fast and Slow
It doesn't matter how complex or inconsequential your thinking may be; your intuition is naturally vulnerable to systematic errors, and you must learn to reject those errors. Even in your own thinking, you must learn to embrace the uncertainty of things that seem undeniably wrong but are inescapably true.
Hope and Help for Your Nerves
Pioneer in cognitive behavioral therapy. Most modern anxiety recovery programs and therapy revolve around her work.
Code
An amazing intro to the big three: computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering. Although unbalanced towards hardware engineering.
Operating System Concepts
A little dry compared to OSTEP. But regardless still a beautiful intro to operating systems by "uncle Avi"
Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces
An eloquent and elegant introduction to operating systems. Currently replacing its predecessor, OS Concepts.
An Introduction to GCC
Mostly read it since I was tinkering with C at the time and needed better compiler settings.
Grokking Algorithms
Simple. Great for DSA interviews.
Web Scalability for Startup Engineers
Slightly obsolete. Contains great principles but a great portion of it is currently not relevant.
Economics in One Lesson
A libertarian's point of view on economics. A good read if you think AI labor displacement will negatively impact the economy.
The Millionaire Next Door
Piggybacks off of a dissertation published in the 90s. Unbiased and still relevant. The "boring" way to get wealthy.
Blue Ocean Strategy
Many tie this book to 'Zero To One'. But Zero to one has a deeper meaning and is broad. This is more specific on how to create blue ocean markets in a red sea of competiion.
Founding Sales
A must-read on founder led sales. Covers it all: mindset, prospecting, cold calling, demos, closing, scaling, and more.
The Mom Test
Sales isn't word slop. It's about asking the right questions.
The Whole-Brain Child
A simple child development and parenting book. Could be "revolutionary" for emotionally unavailable parents.
The Montessori Baby
The most pretenious book I've read in my life.
DARE
Builds on Claire Weeks "Hope and Help for Your Nerves". Still a good read if you have crippling anxiety.
The Greatest Salesman in the World
General self-help book. Mostly read it since Jose Menenedez recommended it to his children right before they killed him.
The Millionaire Fastlane
Unecessarily long and pretentious.
The Simple Path to Wealth
Too simple for my liking, but great if you want to retire a millionare at 65.
Call Me Crazy, but I'm Hearing God's Voice
A little esoteric, but call me crazy because I'm hearing God's voice.
Secrets of the Prophetic
Not in everyone's wheel house.
