📖 Power of Habit
The Power of Habit singlehandedly changed the way I engaged with life. It teaches you how to take advantage of habits and to stop relying on willpower to do certain things.…
📖 Surviving Survival
Surviving Survival is just as well written – if not better – than its prequel, Deep Survival. It explores the aftermath of trauma and how to deal with it.
📖 Attached
Attached has been the single most influential book in my life. It explores the ins-and-outs of relationships, and why certain relationships are more likely to succeed than others.
📖 Happiness Advantage
Happiness Advantage is a fantastic book about taking control of your own happiness, even in the face of events out of our control.
📖 Deep Survival
Deep Survival is a beautiful written book that takes a deep dive at varying life-or-death situations, and explores who lives, who dies, and why.
