Ali Abdaal Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

7) How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie (recommended by @RichardWiseman) 💞 A smash hit from almost 100 years ago. Things have moved on, but this book is the foundation from which a lot of my favourite self-help thinkers have built their ideas.

3) The Precipice by @tobyordoxford (recommended by @willmacaskill) 👣 Will MacAskill is a brilliant moral philosopher, who founded 80,000 Hours with Toby Ord. This book is all about ‘longtermism’, the idea that human history has only just begun. Really fascinating stuff.

4) Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman (recommended by @businessbarista) 🚀 Finding the right business partner can be the difference between your business stifling or striving. You need two types of people: a visionary who has all the big ideas + an integrator who makes them happen.

Just finished listening to the Mistborn trilogy by @BrandSanderson for the second time (first read-through was in 2017). Man, what an absolutely incredible series, can't get enough of it. I've been raving to everyone I know about it for years, so check it out if you haven't lol

An absolute classic, which has been recommended to me and by me too many times to count. I love this book. It’s all about the tiny changes we can make every day to improve our lives. 10/10

@sivers 3 - The daily highlight This is straight from my favourite productivity book ‘Make Time’ by John Zeratsky @jazer The idea is that each day, we choose one specific task that we want to get done, simply saving us from an overly long to-do list and analysis paralysis.

‘Atomic Habits’ by James Clear 🖊️ If you’ve not read this by now, make it a priority. It’s become the go-to book on habits and behavioural change. In the book, James shares a great breakdown of 4 laws for sustaining success and that’s to make whatever you’re doing...
