Great By Choice by James C. Collins and Morten T. Hansen.
The Surrender Experiment (by Michael A. Singer) has played an important role in how I have worked through my fear of the unknown to get to a place where I am open to opportunities. I read it just before being made redundant from a long-term position in a big company. After being let go, due to this book, I surrendered and said yes to everything that came my way. It taught me that surrender and trust is a greater force than trying to take control of everything in life with power and rational thinking. It taught me how much I will never know about life and that it's alright.
I loved books by Roald Dahl as a child, and the fantastic illustrations by Quentin Blake. George's Marvellous Medicine was a particular favourite. I remember making my own magic potion, something they now warn readers against with a disclaimer.
I love reading about Buddhist teachings. I am fascinated by the similarities between this ancient wisdom and the new discoveries in positive psychology and neuroscience.
"When [what you are deeply passionate about, what you can be best in the world at and what drives your economic engine] come together, not only does your work move toward greatness, but so does your life. For, in the end, it is impossible to have a great life unless it is a meaningful life. And it is very difficult to have a meaningful life without meaningful work. Perhaps, then, you might gain that rare tranquility that comes from knowing that you've had a hand in creating something of intrinsic excellence that makes a contribution. Indeed, you might even gain that deepest of all satisfactions: knowing that your short time here on this earth has been well spent, and that it mattered." - Good to Great by Jim Collins
