Here is a list of the books that I have finished that I recommend. Here I am not including good fiction books, although I enjoy those too. These are books I believe will grow your perspective, teach you valuable skills, or empower you to improve your life. I will update this post every time I finish a new good book. I recommend checking out Audible if you haven't already. I love listening to books. I can read way more by listening to them because I can do other things while I listen (like shower or drive). But if you are good at frequently sitting down with your kindle or paper book, all power to you.
