Mindset: The New Psychology of Success
by Carol Dweck
This read explores the idea that there are two types of mindsets: fixed and growth. We all fluctuate between both.

What mindset do you think leads to the best life?
Unfuck Yourself
by Gary John Bishop
There are some very hard truths in this book. I enjoyed listening to the audiobook because I liked the writer’s voice… and by voice I mean the way he approaches self-help in a tough-love, no BS, free of rainbows and lollipops kind of way. This is a great read to help you recognize and move past your self-imposed limitations.
