The book is published in 1952 but still seems current after all those years. Invisible Man by Ralph EllisonĪ novel about a young, nameless black man, as he moves through life invisible, “‘simply because people refuse to see me.” Is the book fact or fiction? Doesn’t matter because it paints the picture from one person’s perspective on race-that’s what matters. And, most importantly, it reads beautifully. It is, however, a great summary of human history and evolutionary psychology. I don’t agree with all the hype of this book being the best book of all time.
And I can’t tell you enough how significant the impact has been on my productivity, confidence, health, happiness, and overall enjoyment of life. John Ratey’s book inspired me to include daily exercise into my life. You’ll appreciate it more after reading this book - I can tell you that.

Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman This is the most practical book I’ve read on decision making. This book is an excellent collection of 99 thinking errors - from cognitive biases to social distortions. How many of those decisions are rational? If you ask Dobelli, very little. The Art Of Thinking Clearly by Rolf Dobelli I haven’t stopped thinking, reflecting, and living more consciously ever since. And since Thoreau isn’t recommended reading in school in The Netherlands, I decided to pick it up by myself (and the Jon Krakauer book too).

The movie (released in 2007) was based on a Jon Krakauer book with the same title about Christopher McCandless, a young and naïve idealist who wanted to live a simple life. I remember how I discovered his writings - through the movie Into The Wild. Thoreau started my ‘thinking about life’ journey ten years ago.
