On Writing by Stephen King - contains a lot great advice and interesting anecdotes for writing fiction but is easily applicable to other mediums, including software development. And, of course, well written. 4,000 Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burke - deconstructs the hustle/productivity mindset and rejects it in favor of an existential view of accepting your finitude and prioritizing accordingly. I wouldn’t say the book changed my mind but reassured some of my feelings and put some words to why trying to pursue too many goals or experiences typically fails or is unfulfilling. Sort of ironically takes its main point a little too far by the end in my opinion but I recommend it anyway, it’s pretty short. Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner - still in progress but clearly a great book so far. I recommend it to anyone living in western US/MX.
