Good Books to Read (From Quora)

• On the Shortness of Life by Seneca: This is the wisest book in the history of many. It have been kicking butts out of sofa for approx. 2000 years.
• Of Human Freedom by Epictetus: Another stoic classic, which is just so insanely deep. This should be on everyones curriculum.
• The Defining Decade by Meg Jay: All the things your parents didn't tell you about work, love and your body. If you have kids, it is essential. If you are in, or apporaching your twenties, it is obligatory. You can only buy this book too slowly.
• Zen and The Art of Motercycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig: This fiction will stay with you for a long time, and give you a new perspective on life.
• Mastery by Robert Greene: Tells the story of Da Vinci, Darwin and other titans of history, and how they came to be. From there, Greene discovers virtues of success largely forgotten in our busy world.
• Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell: This book will make you understand, or at least let you peak into the complex system of success. It helped me a lot to focus on important factors instead of worrying about them which you cannot change.
