Reading is a boring answer to “How do I get better at life?”—but it’s true, it has 100% changed my life.

Most people say, “I’m too busy” or “I can’t focus.” That’s your monkey brain talking.
If TikTok conspiracy holes are easier than reading, you probably need a book more than anyone.

The way I force myself to read is to leave the house. Go to a cafe with no phone. Or walk and listen to an audiobook.
Just read. Somewhere. Somehow. JUST DO IT

I mostly read non-fiction (I’m working on that).
But it’s made a massive difference in how I think, live, and work.

When I have kids, I’ll make them read. No bedtime Winnie the Pooh—more like Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

Anyway, here’s my top 22 life-changing books.
