Any Guide by Stephen D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner
I majored in economics, and once I say it may be a dry subject, it’s best to belief me. The Stephens talk about economics, logic, and decision-making in a manner that’s attention-grabbing. Whereas different books on the subject are akin to 3-hour-long documentaries, their books are extra like collections of viral TikToks.
Sure, the extra senior economists will label this as pop-economics, however they’re nerds. Ignore them.

Look, a few of Tim’s older stuff is outright… silly (anybody who tried the Gallon of Milk a Day weight-reduction plan from 4-Hour Physique is aware of this firsthand) however his newer stuff is unbelievable.

Any Guide by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson
I really like this advice as a result of the books these guys (the founders of 37Signals, the corporate that made BaseCamp) write are painfully underrated. Particularly Getting Actual.

Affect by Robert Cialdini
This is among the longest books on this checklist, however I discovered it very straightforward to learn for a lot of causes.
The most important motive is the takeaways are fascinating. Most books on psychology and persuasion are a watered-down, much less attention-grabbing regurgitation of this guide. Just like Atomic Habits and each different guide on behavior constructing.
Any Guide by Austin Kleon
Kleon’s books are not like anything. They’re actually like items of artwork. These are books that you just MUST purchase the bodily variations of—you’ll see what I’m speaking about if you do.
