Whilst there is a lot of topical books and some new bestsellers, my book diet of the last few years has consisted of books that have timeless lessons, and make me reflect on the journey of life so far.
What has really resonated with me is the timeless nature of these books and some of their most important lessons.

‍Most will know Ray Dalio as the founder of Bridgewater Capital, one of the most successful hedge funds in the world. Most think of this success as pure luck, talent, or being at the right place at the right time. This couldn’t be further from the truth as uncovered by Ray in his early years of making some profound mistakes (almost going out of business, making huge assertions about the economy that ended up being wrong). Ray beautifully captures his work and life lesions in principles that help you navigate life decisions in astonishing clarity.

The Phycology of Money brilliantly outlays a topic that is very close to the essence and story of WeMoney and why we exist. So when it was released in September 2020 I had to consume it cover to cover. The title misleads one to think that dense material of academic material, fear not my friends, Morgan beautiful navigates this topic is very easy to understand language that will make you wish you picked it up sooner.

Happy reading folks! I hope you enjoyed these books as much as I did. Also if you’ve got this far and thinking to yourself.. “I don’t have time to read books” which was a mental model I was trapped in for a very long time, my biggest back was allocating the end of my day to reading books or listening to audiobooks whilst doing seeming mundane household chores that unlocked “finding the time to read”. Hopefully this helps you too.
Here’s to 2021.
