Hi, I just finished Atomic Habits. I highly recommend it if you haven't read. I can see lot of positive changes in me , after i start reading .
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 😻
@gabriele_jusaityte Thank you! 'Zero to One' was read a year ago; it changed my mindset in some aspects. 'The Hard Thing about Hard Things' added to list :)
Tanizaki Junichiro "In Praise of Shadows". This book will change you and your attitude towards life for sure. More than a masterpiece
@unrealartemg Thank you Artem. Can't help but read after your recommendation words. Added to the reading list :)
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.
@gonelf Thank you! I'm definitely impressed with how many books for PdM I have never heard about. added to list :)
Check out Atomic Habits, can greatly simplify and put on autopilot your day to day
@gamarantor thank you! this is the second mention of this book in the thread; definitely worth reading
Endure: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance by Alex Hutchinson
@barneda thank you! This book was recommended to me by my friend also. two opinions are always better than one :)
For startup founders: The Hard Thing about Hard Things was just very real, great advice, and just amazing
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
