—

by

Reviewed Date: February 8th, 2025 Not all parents wish for children’s goodness. Contrary to popular notion, parents can be wrong, and they are capable of doing damage to their children. Famously in the form of emotional abuse. In a society where everyone sides with parents and ignores children’s pleas for love, children usually resort to…

We need to use AI; it will be an addition, helping us learn and improve our decision-making skills. In the book, the author talks…

The Wealth Ladder by Nick Maggiulli

—

by

Reviewed Date: November 24th, 2025 Thomas Sowell, an American economist, said that nobody ever stays poor if they are honest, make the right decisions, and are ready to sacrifice a few things in their journey. They can pull themselves out of poverty. But that’s easier said than done. We are a product of our choices.…

The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel

—

by

Reviewed Date: January 25th, 2026 Spending is easier than earning, but do we know how to spend? Although we spend money based on life experiences and individuality, we can understand the motivations and intentions behind each purchase. This way, we will be more content with our decisions, and spending will feel more meaningful. Almost all…

Meditations For Mortals by Oliver Burkeman

—

by

Reviewed Date: August 17th, 2025 Oliver Burkeman is one of my favorite authors. His work, Four Thousand Weeks, is the book that impacted me profoundly. It made me rethink and evaluate my deeply held beliefs and notions. It is pretty rare for me to like a book, until and unless it offers strong arguments and…

SuperAgency by Reid Hoffman

—

by

Reviewed Date: June 11th, 2025 I would like to thank Reid Hoffman for sending me a special edition of his book. Whoever came up with the idea needs a raise. It makes the whole reading experience unique and special, something for the reader himself. That’s amazing. AI has been in the news almost every day.…

Open When by Dr Julie Smith

—

by

Reviewed Date: January 6th, 2025 There is something comforting about Dr. Julie Smith’s books. It feels like a friend talking with you, easing our nerves and helping you better cope with difficult situations. I am a huge fan of her previous work, Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? I cannot emphasize how much it…

Million Dollar Weekend by Noah Kagan

—

by

Reviewed Date: December 21st, 2024 I had little to no expectations when I picked up this book. Honestly, it surprised me. It’s not clickbait-y. The book has solid stuff. Finance books are mostly hit and miss. A famous guy usually tells you to invest in this or that. And results are hardly replicated. Not because…

The Algebra of Wealth By Scott Galloway

—

by

Reviewed Date: October 26th, 2024 You can’t keep money if you don’t have character. Character protects money. All the impulsive decisions you make will cost a fortune. You might have income sources, but if you don’t know how to save and invest, by the end of the month, you’ll run out of money. Generating money…

Adult Survivors of Toxic Family Members by Dr. Sherrie Campbell

—

by

Reviewed Date: October 19th, 2024 We have been raised with a few notions: that our family cannot be wrong, our family is everything, and we shouldn’t go against our family whatever they say and do. This is precisely where toxicity can thrive and flourish. It is where, despite having been through toxicity by our family…

Slow Productivity by Cal Newport

—

by

Reviewed Date: October 10th, 2024 Productivity doesn’t mean looking busy. People get confused with one another. We cram our schedules with endless work. One task will be replaced by another task. But still, we feel there is so much to do. This leads to a question: does productivity mean finishing up tasks on our to-do…

Social Justice Fallacies by Thomas Sowell

—

by

Reviewed Date: August 18th, 2024 “A man is not even equal to himself at different stages of life.” The quote struck me very hard. What most people don’t understand is that we should all aim for equal opportunity but not for equal outcome. You cannot expect an incompetent man to do the job the same…

Supercommunicators by Charles Duhigg

—

by

Reviewed Date: May 9th, 2024 I had little to no expectations when I picked up this book. Mostly because I read a few books on the same topic the book discusses. And I also know the writing style of Charles Duhigg: in-depth and unsurprisingly long explanations for concepts. But the book isn’t bad. If you…

How To Be the Love You Seek by Nicole Lepera

—

by

Reviewed Date: MArch 20th, 2024 Relationships are fundamentally human. We crave human connections; it is innate. In relationships, we seek, along with trust and commitment, safety, security, and emotional intimacy. Although we might be inclined towards a person (who might be satisfying our unconscious needs), it’s hard to build a relationship if it lacks basic…

The Cure for Burnout by Emily Ballesteros

—

by

Reviewed Date: March 10th, 2024 Burnout is a relatively new thing for humans. Never in the history of humankind have we humans experienced that. Of course, back then, we fought hard to avoid starvation and other deadly situations. But burnout is not one of them. We had less work and ample time to finish tasks…

Tiny Traumas by Meg Arroll

—

by

Reviewed Date: February 25th, 2024 When you hear the word “trauma,” you might think of big, terrible events that could happen to a person, which entirely change his/her life. But trauma can be small too. These small traumatic incidents go unnoticed but affect us deeply day to day. It is essential to address them to…

Feel Good Productivity by Ali Abdaal

—

by

Reviewed Date: February 23rd, 2024 The writing of Feel Good Productivity is as dry as the Sahara Desert; while reading it, readers won’t feel good at all. The problem highlights the problem in the publishing industry. Creators who have millions of followers or fans have the thought that I left a mark on every possible…

When the Body Says No by Gabor Mate

by

Reviewed Date: February 1st, 2024 We all have been experiencing stress these days. We also know what health complications we would get if we were exposed to stress for a long time, especially heart diseases. But chronic stress, prolonged exposure to stress, can cause breast cancer, autoimmune diseases, intestine ulcers, prostate cancer, and many more.…
