The 20 Books That Changed my Life.

These 20 books have fundamentally shaped my approach to life, work, and personal development. From James Clear teaching me the power of tiny habits and environment design, to Brian Tracy showing me the importance of thinking big, each book has contributed unique insights. I've learned about cognitive biases from Kahneman, the value of rethinking from Adam Grant, and life-changing routines from Robin Sharma.
Books like Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Psychology of Money have transformed my financial mindset, while productivity gems like the 4-Hour Work Week and Less Doing, More Living taught me to work smarter. Through authors like Jordan Peterson and Wayne Dyer, I've gained deeper perspectives on tradition and self-reflection.
The principles of compound gains from The Slight Edge, emotional intelligence insights from Daniel Goleman, and the power of reciprocity from Marc Allen have all become integral to my daily life. Most importantly, these books collectively taught me that success comes from consistent small actions, focusing on what truly matters (the 80/20 principle), and always going above and beyond in everything I do.
