Books, books, books! If only we could live forever and read all of them.
Of all the books I read this year, these are the three that stuck with me the most (in no particular order). I truly believe they are life-changing and well worth your time.

“Don’t just say you have read books. Show that through them you have learned to think better, to be a more discriminating and reflective person. Books are the training weights of the mind. They are very helpful, but it would be a bad mistake to suppose that one has made progress simply by having internalized their contents.” — Epictetus
