The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel. Some takeaways - 1. Luck and Risk are doppelangers - every outcome in life is guided by forces other than individual effort.The difficulty in identifying what is luck, skill and risk is one of the biggest problems we face when managing money.The line between 'inspiringly bold' and 'foolishly reckless' can be a millimeter thick and only visible on hindsight. 2. Be careful who you praise and admire.Be careful who you look down upon and wish to avoid becoming. Don't assume that 100% of the outcomes can be attributed to efforts and decisions. Realise that not all success is due to hard work and not all poverty is due to laziness. Focus less on specific individuals and more on broad patterns. Studying a specific person is dangerous because we tend to s

As an investor, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by author Robert Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter is my all time favourite book. Rich Dad Poor Dad is about Robert Kiyosaki and his two dads : his real father (poor dad) and the father of his best friend (rich dad)—and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. You don’t need to earn a high income to be rich. The poor and the middle-class work for money. The rich have money work for them. It’s not how much money you make that matters. It’s how much money you keep. Rich people acquire assets. The poor and middle class acquire liabilities that they think are assets. Financial aptitude is what you do with the money once you make it, how you keep people from taking it from you, how to keep it longer, and how you make money work hard

The Path of the Masters by Julian Johnson, a spiritual classic

The 1st book which inspired me in investing is 'One Up on Wall Street' by Peter Lynch. That was the starting point for me to becoming more structured & organized as an investor.  I gained confidence in being the little guy/gal vs the giants (Institutions, Fund Managers.. etc) as we have the ability to spot trends by being observant in our daily lives & are much more nimble than the 'giants'.  Learning to categorize the stocks enables me to realize the difference in strategies to adopt and the timing to buy / sell / hold for each. Some points, using Co-Pilot to summarise is as per attached.

I love many books. I guess my favorite one is a spiritual: Shambhala. The sacred path of the warrior. A buddhist meditation teacher tries to break down an organic teaching based on appreciation of life and non-aggression in combination with courage. In this world which has dangerously gone mad, aggression and psychological projection are massive problems, which are positively endangering human civilization. People have to have a level of wisdom which is on the level of the technology they have develop, because technology will amplify anything people do to castastrophic dimensions, if the necessary wisdom is lacking. Of course there are many way to develop wisdom, but for me personally this book is special :)

“Difficult Conversations” - How to Discuss What Matters Most, by Douglas Stone, Bruce Patton , and Sheila Heen, is the book I’ll recommend now. This book is a practical guide that helps readers handle the most difficult conversations with confidence and skill. This book walks the teader through a step by step approach for how to make the toughest conversations with less stress and more success. The book is filled with examples from everyday life. This is a classic we can turn to again and again for powerful, practical advice.
