When I was a teenager, reading was not the thing for me. I always thought that I will never be able to concentrate and read like 500-pages book.
Nowadays, I read 4-5 books per year, which is impressive for me because I work full-time in Clinical Research, manage a website, shoot and edit YouTube videos, and go to the gym.
The point here is, YOU CAN ALSO MANAGE TO READ SOME BOOKS :)
The books I read are not novels, but they are self-help books, neuroscience books, etc.. these types of books, usually take time to read and comprehend in contrast to novels that can be finished easily and fast.
In this article, I will provide you with 7 books that will certainly change your life because they did for mine. The videos are summaries I collected from YouTube from different creators to show you a brief about the book.
I encourage you to watch all of the videos and buy
