Apart from being a developer, I’m also a passionate reader. I’ve been actively picking up interesting books for years now. I started to read at first to keep myself away from over thinking, but it has slowly become a great pastime now.
I want to reflect on my reading list and wish to introduce you to some great books, which had been a great help.
Here are my 5 picks, and would love you to pick them up for your reading list! I’ve also included buying links for each of these, so if you’re planning to buy them use these links – simple!

It is a story about a young boy Santiago, who sets out on a journey to realize his destiny of a treasure he dreams of.
On his journey, Santiago learns about life, omens, dreams, love and destiny. A really great book and a must read!

Think and Grow Rich
Written by Napoleon Hill in 1937, this book guides you in realizing your desire and achieving it. Generally we seek many things in life like riches, wealth, luxury and so on. But we don’t really give our honest effort in that direction. Or we do put in effort, but give up after sometime. This book throws light on the right way to seek what you desire and also succeed it in.

The Almanac of Naval Ravikant
Naval Ravikant is an Indian-American entrepreneur and investor. He is the co-founder, chairman and former CEO of AngelList. The journey of Naval is like the Rags to Riches story, and this book is a collection of his speeches and quotes put into one.
He explains journey, gives you wisdom and suggests his picks for books as well! The contents of this book are actually available for free on the internet, but I prefer a book to read.

The Power of Your Subconscious Mind
If I tell you that all your problems and your suffering in life are the feelings you put in your mind and you can simply heal yourself through simple affirmations, will you believe? But this is true to a great extent, and I personally have gone through this. This book helped me get better in my thoughts and I can say that I’m a lot positive than before! I’ve even detailed my takeaways from this book in a blog post. Give this one a try!
