“We never read the same book twice. Because we’ve changed. The perceptions about the book have changed. What we’re going through in this very moment is new and different”
Author Ryan Holiday couldnt have put it any better.
“Books are an investment in yourself — investments that come in many forms: novels, nonfiction, how-to, poetry, classics, biographies. They help you think more clearly, be kinder, see the bigger picture, and improve at the things that matter to you.
Books are a tradition that stretches back thousands of years and stretches forward to today, where people are still publishing distillations of countless hours of hard thinking on hard topics. Why wouldn’t you avail yourself of this wisdom?”
This post is an ode to re-reading books. I have had the pleasure of reading some life-changing books in the past few years. But almost every year, I have a ritual to pick up some of these books again. And everytime I do, I gain an immense amount of new value from it.
- Sapiens
- Atomic Habits
- The Psychology of Money
- The Almanack of Naval Ravikant
- How to Win Friends and Influence People
- Cracking the PM Career
- Man’s Search for Meaning
