Anyone have a book that changed their life? It's a cliche but I read 'The Secret' and OMG it was like a huge lightbulb went on. Looking for another inspirational book....

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Agree Thinking Fast And Slow is excellent.

Maybe slightly obvious, but Thinking Fast and Slow is really mind-opening. It's totally changed the way I make decisions and how I think through things at work. I wouldn't say it's a lightbulb, but I do think that if everyone read it, we'd all think a lot more clearly.

A bit different as it's a novel, but reading The Dispossessed by Ursula le Guin in my early 30s has massively influenced my political beliefs.

The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle.

I’ve had a great year so far after reading Derren Brown’s ‘Happy’. A big surprise.
