This is my new book case

I seriously love it which might seem a little crazy 😜

I've just finished putting it together. 

I left about 100 books at the gym in the end and gave away another 100 to charity.

These are my favourites that aren't on audible. 

I've turned: 

Cure by Jo Marchant. a book about how the brain influences healing.

Tribe by Sebastian Junger - a book how we are meant to live closer together. 

Growth Mindset by Carol Dweck - growth mindset meaning I can transform my brain, it isn't fixed.

The war of Art by Steve Pressfield - creation always faces internal resistance, so look for it, no resistance means nothing is being created. 

Mans search for meaning by Victor Frankl a book about finding meaning during the holocaust. Life has no meaning save the one we give it. 

Tools of Titans by Tim Ferriss - the rituals and routines of incredibly successful people. Takeaway - successful people have systems for thinking about things and daily routines to make sure they execute. What they are is irrelevant. 

... to face forward. 

Every time I walk into my living room I am met with 6 ideas that heavily influence what I believe and how I think. 

I am met with the reassure that I am not crazy. 

I am met with the feelings that I got the first time I read these books.

I am met with the knowledge that I am standing on the shoulders of giant. 

The knowledge is conscious but the feeling is unconscious. 

Just like when I hear the lyrics 

"Do you really like it, is it is it wicked"

I am met with the knowledge that DJ Pied Pipper is trying to kill me with the worst song in human history.

But the feelings I get are the wave of excitement that was Kavos 18-30's just out of college. 

Emotions and sensory stimulus that happen together stay together for ever. 

My book case is part of a broader idea.

Ask yourself, in every environment you have the opportunity to influence in some way. 

How do I want to feel here? 
What makes me feel that now? 

Then put it there and as little else as possible.
