- Game Changers, by Dave Asprey.
- Exposed me to a wealth array of ideas/habits/tools that have helped me decide which new habit to build next. The book is divided into 46 laws.
- Essentialism, by Greg McKeown.
- Helped me focus on less but more important tasks, giving clarity to what matters most. This is especially interesting to break bad habits.
- The Systems View of Life, by Fritjof Capra.
- Enlightened my perspectives on how nature and living beings are systematically integrated. It is a profound and slightly academic book that can complement Atomic Habits especially to tie together the 4-step framework into the feedback loop system.
- The Talent Code, by Daniel Coyle.
- Brought more motivation when learning new skills based on the assumptions that we develop new talents through deep practices, finding our ignition identity, and having the right coach to guide us genuinely. I read it many years ago, then, a few years back, I read his following book called The Little Book of Talent—which is perhaps even more to the point.
- Atomic Habits, by James Clear.
- I read the material twice for better notes. I use a 1-month commitment, introduce one habit per month, explore details and benefits, and apply James Clear's system. I stay motivated with podcasts and videos.
