I'm learning how to be better. I started reading Farnam Street about two months ago, and picked up Ryan Holiday's The Obstacle is the Way two weeks ago. Meditations: A New Translation and Thinking Fast and Slow are on their way. I'm facing not a crisis of self, but a realization that I am at a point where in order to move forward, and achieve what I want to achieve, I have some huge ego driven flaws that require a megalithic perspective shift.


If you're reading books like that, might I also suggest Mindfulness in Plain English: http://www.amazon.com/Mindfulness-Plain-English-Anniversary-...

I found it incredibly useful.


Awesome I agree. Read this several years ago! Great book! The observer is such a powerful concept, also covered in practical detail by Holiday. Thank you, though, and check this out: http://lionserpent.com/unity.html :)
