Artists
People whose music
I know by heart.
Coldplay at sunrise. Radiohead at midnight. AR Rahman when I'm homesick. Billie Eilish when I need to feel something. No apologies.

Shows
TV that
wrecked me (in the best way).
I watch shows the way some people read literature โ slowly, with opinions, and way too much emotional investment in fictional people.

Comedy
Modern Family
Jay Pritchett is one of the best written characters on TV. Change my mind.

Movies
Films that
stayed with me.
Not a film critic. Just someone who watches movies and feels things about them and can't always explain why.
Interstellar
The scene in the tesseract broke something in me and rebuilt it differently. Still thinking about it.

Books
Books that
rewired how I think.
I don't read fast. I read slowly and argue with the pages. These are the ones that won.
Thinking, Fast and Slow
Daniel Kahneman
Completely changed how I understand my own decisions. The chapter on loss aversion alone was worth the whole book.
Psychology ยท Non-fiction
The Almanack of Naval Ravikant
Eric Jorgenson
I've come back to this more than any other book. It's not self-help. It's something quieter and more honest than that.
Philosophy ยท Life
Atomic Habits
James Clear
The 1% better every day idea sounds obvious until you actually apply it and watch what happens over months.
Productivity ยท Behaviour
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman
Richard Feynman
The most convincing argument I've ever read for being genuinely, unashamedly curious about everything.
Science ยท Memoir
The Alchemist
Paulo Coelho
Read it at exactly the right time. The idea that the universe conspires in your favour when you really want something โ I've thought about that a lot.
Fiction ยท Philosophy
Man's Search for Meaning
Viktor Frankl
The most important book I've read about what makes a life worth living. Short. Dense. Stays with you.
Psychology ยท Philosophy
