title: Books
---

Learning is acting different in the same circumstance. If your behavior does not
change from reading a book, you did not learn. Pick a few concepts from each
book to apply to your life.

The best way to learn is to start trying and see what works. Before starting,
books provide only a vague idea of how you should act to see results. Reading
after starting gives context to the book's ideas.

If a topic is new to you, read original and foundational books first. Here are
my recommendations:

- The Bible (specifically the Synoptic Gospels, John, and Pauline Epistles)
- How to Think and Grow Rich
- Atomic Habits
- Principles by Ray Dalio
- How to Win Friends and Influence People
- The Almanack of Naval Ravikant
- Rich Dad Poor Dad
- The Great Mental Models by Farnam Street
- The 4-Hour Workweek
- 12 Rules for Life
- The Book on Rental Property Investing
- The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
- The Intelligent Investor
- [Competitive Programmer's Handbook](https://cses.fi/book/book.pdf)
