One book that had a profound impact on me is "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor E. Frankl. The book recounts Frankl's experiences as a Holocaust survivor and his development of logotherapy, a form of psychotherapy that emphasizes the search for meaning and purpose in life.

I have a lot of books that really influenced my life. I like reading books of various genres and I do it whenever have the opportunity. Now I'm busy preparing for my tasks.

Not sure if this book has changed my life but it is a book that i heartily recommend to whoever will listen

"What Should I Do With My Life?" by Po Bronson. it contains compelling interviews with people from all walks of life on how they have made their career decisions and arrived at where they are (at the point of being interviewed). I was in my mid-20s and battling a quarter-life crisis when I read it and it offered me a lot of solace and encouragement.

Not a book but a blog - Cal Newport's blog https://www.calnewport.com/blog/

I love his Zen Valedictorian philosophy. In his words, "The Zen Valedictorian: Students at competitive high schools and elite colleges inject unhealthy amounts of stress into their life due to the flawed belief that the quantity of things you do as a student controls how impressive you seem to the outside world. This is not true. Youโ€™re typically judged on the thing you do best. My approach to the student stress issue (which I used to speak about at universities around the country) was to encourage students to: do less, do better. That is, focus on a small number of things; do them really well; and leave yourself margin in your schedule for recharging and curiosity. Itโ€™s possible to be both happy and impressive, if you know what youโ€™re doing. "
