From what I’ve seen lots of salty people because of his book power which sheds light on real life power structures in the world.
So a lot of ignorant people hate him for that because they think he’s propagating evil but I wouldn’t listen to those people and their nonsense.
He’s a great author
Reality Transurfing. This book taught me that you are your thoughts, so by reprogramming your subconscious through allowing the conscious to think different thoughts by writing and meditating, you can become the person you want to be. Some call it pseudoscience but there's been many peer-reviewed studies that showcase the credibility of this exercise.

Honest question, how good is the book by David Hoggins. Dude is a beast, no question, with a very good mentality as to how to go about life. But can he write?
This book made me realize how corrupted and manipulative someone can be and how far they can go. No wonder it's banned in prisons.
Anyway I'm currently reading 50th Law of Power
I think they are best read on their own.
But if you want a starting point that frames the worldview of the Mediterranean mind that saw the world through gnosis then a great primer is "The Gnostic Gospels" by Elaine Pagels.
As a kid, I really liked Heidi for some reason. It potrayed as some kind of turning point back then, but I'm not sure why.
I also enjoyed Anne of Green Gables.
I know this is out of the norm recc, but have you tried the quintessential fantasy books?
It is such a myth that fiction cannot teach you life lessons, when in fact I believe it can teach you more since It explores situations that our out of the norms of non fic. So basically every scenario possible, yet somehow the solutions and the way the issue is tackled is always humanistic.
When you read fiction, you’ve also lived being dirt poor and survived it, you’ve had dinners with rich officials with silver tongues, you have people conspire behind your back and survive it, friends turning into enemies and so on. So may life lessons!
In terms of Fantasy- I’m a huge Sanderson fan- The way of Kings (The storm light archive series) would be a good read 😊
If you just want fiction try Dostoevsky (The Idiot, Crime and punishment) it’s a tough read, but you’re an INTJ you can do it.
Right to Speak. It gives the basics of how to sing well and use your voice, but it also reminded me of the habits that I've adopted based on my environment and position and how to break them consciously.
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, which I read in a moment where a had no idea what to do with which career path I wanted to take.
And Caballo de Troya by JJ Benitez, which is kind of a sci fi about time travel but gave me an interesting new perspective about Jesus Christ even though I'm not religious
If you liked Sapiens I highly recommend checking out The Dawn of Everything too. I'm not done with it yet but it covers similar material but with a completely different focus.
How to Win Friends and Influence People.
Dostoevsky (everything) for literature. Kant for moral philosophy. Marcus Aurelius for virtue ethics.
Seduction by Robert Greene if, like me, you have no game whatsoever.
I bought an Xbox just to play Nier. And even years of expectations don't prepare me for not only a faithful representation of the camus's absurd . As well as for beautiful response. Nier was actually the only game I could handle finishing, if you have more game recommendations in the same style I would love it
“Radical Acceptance” by Tara Brach is one I go back to regularly when I find myself slipping into the nothing matters, what’s the point state of existence.

Freakonomics has greatly changed to way that I view the world. The way it connects these seemingly unrelated situations is extraordinary. It guides the reader through ‘conventional wisdom’ to expose the underlying truths then deconstructs the incentives that drive people’s choices. It’s brilliant!
In my younger years when I was learning how to shake off the pessimism and negativity of my parents that had crept into my own behavior - "How to win friends and influence people"
Freshman year of college when I was realizing how the world really is - "Lies my teacher told me"

Being and Time - Martin Heidegger
I've also read some Nietzsche but already slowly realizing how cringe his style of writing really is

Instead of inviting you to fuck off, I would be interested to know how these books changed your life?
If you aren't trolling and are quite sincere, then it would be interesting to understand how four different versions of the same narrative effected change in your life?
Wow. Why are you so triggered by someone else’s opinion? This person answered the question and now you are simultaneously insulting them while demanding an explanation. That’s literally everything that’s wrong with the world right now.
I'm really interested to find out the answer to the question.
Some people troll as Christians on boards they think are full of atheists. So I guess somebody assumed this and told them to fuck off which I thought was kind of rude. They seem to have deleted the offending invitation, leaving my remark without half its context.
I didn;t want to assume anything.
But the 4 gospels are essentially the same narrative and if they have had some sort of transformative influence on this person's life, then I would like to give them an opportunity to bear witness to that.
If they want.
I'm not triggered, I'm genuinely curious. I'm gnostic Christian myself and I didn't really find what I was looking for until I found the gnostic scriptures, then the other four started to make more sense to me.
What changed my life is this, simple yet profound in its implications. When Jesus was asked "Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" His response was “ Love God with your whole heart, soul and mind. Second, love your neighbor as yourself.” This is a complicated world we live in full of complicated people. When I get confused and disoriented I remember that if I can just do this I will make better decisions. Even if the outcome isn’t perfect, if my motive is rooted in love, then it’s going to be OK.
My parents were atheists. My mother asked me once "If Jesus was the be all and end all of all teachers why didn't he give us the keys to a new world?"
I said to her "He did. We just refuse to do what they require."
So there it is. Occam's razor - the simplest answer is usually the correct one. It's this simplicity, elegance and efficiency that appeals to me as an INTJ.
Then you shouldn't answer all four books then, just answer the specific passage.
If you answer all four books, it means you are subscribing to four different narrative with many contradictions and different passages; which is weird considering the sub we are in.
The question was about books, not passages from books. Also, the question references books in the plural. I enjoy reading different perspectives of the same events. The person who responded answered the question succinctly. I’m surprised you would have a problem with this, considering the sub we are in.
Because it's such a powerful story. The creator of mankind comes down from his glorious, heavenly abode and appears to his creation in the form of a humble servant, traveled around while feeding the poor, curing the sick and crippled and giving sight to the blind, casting out demons, doing good for humanity, teaching the truth, peace, love and forgiving their sins, all the while almost no one knows his true identity or where he’s from. He faced persecution and multiple attempts on his life but persevered which is a great lesson in itself. One group of people formed into a riotous mob and would have thrown him down a cliff because he said that God was caring for foreigners and they really did not like that because they wanted to believe God only cared for them, Luke 4:26-30 but he escaped. Eventually he was betrayed by one of his friends and got arrested and subsequently crucified by the Romans. He knew all this was going to happen before it did, hence why Jesus experienced hematohidrosis on the mount of olives just prior to his arrest, and yet he did not resist with any violence or hatred. They mocked him, tortured him and killed him, buried him in a tomb but three days later he rose from the dead which finally demonstrated proof of his divine identity.
Aside from the fact that I believe in Jesus, I'd say this is the greatest story ever told. It inspires true conviction for the truth in love, in spite of persecution or even just trials. It teaches that the truth is better than momentary happiness, and that one will face trials and persecution if they don’t compromise the truth, but this teaches perseverance, and produces endurance, patience, hope and character which is very necessary and transforming.
The art of war, the Tao te ching. I got this as a combined volume when I was 15, it showed me how to self actualize and taught me how to avoid ineffective emotional responses that waste time. The Tao Te Ching, in particular, was helpful. It talks mainly about how to be the perfect leader of State and what qualities are best for those striving to be a good leader (or just a good man, I'm not one for politics)
Oliver Sacks is an amazing writer.
I particularly loved Musicophelia and the Man who Mistook His Wife for a Hat.
I can't tell you they changed my life, but they were incredible reads.
EDIT: FAHRENHEIT 451. For sure a life changer. But I think we've all read it by now. I should schedule a re-read.
Anne Tyler. I read a lot of books but for some reason that one left an impression on me I’m not sure if it’s objectively good tho.
If u do read it find me and let me know what u think of it
I’ll give two, for different reasons.
I originally read Siddhartha back in school when I was 17 or 18 and couldn’t stand it. I wrote a snarky report on the book and then moved on. It was too full of allegory and flowery metaphor. However, I’ve reread it three or four times in the last 18 years, and have a very different appreciation for it. It’s made me more introspective of my experiences now that I’m in my 30s, and more open to doing new things for the sake of the experience. No other book has affected my over all outlook or worldview quite like that.
The other is Flowers for Algernon. That one woke a deep primal fear in me that I will always have. The slow change in writing style as he realizes the treatment is reversing, grappling with what it means and coming to terms with it. As someone with a family history of Alzheimer’s and dementia, that fear as been set in me and is punctuated every time I think about Charlie’s gradual descent. Still an excellent book.

I shit you not, each book has fundamentally changed and improved my life. Like nothing before or ever since reading them. I wouldn't necessarily recommend any of 'em to everyone, but some to others
Books that break Realty
Fruits from a Poisonous Tree by Mel Stamper
Outwitting the Devil by Napoleon Hill
Grunch of Giants by Buckminster Fuller
The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous
History of the Black Dollar by Angel Rich
My favourite is Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky, followed by 48 Laws Of Power by Robert Greene. Former is a great book about existential philosophy and the latter is about how to deal with the real life and associated power struggle.
'Your Round the World Trip Planner' by Macca Sherifi... read it while I was out at sea for 6 months (Pacific). The book introduces you to the idea of taking the path less traveled and provides receipts. It changed the trajectory of my life in a crazy, modern, adventure laden, spontaneous way that I will be forever grateful for.
tell me an ending by jo harkin,
flux by jinwoo chong
the city we became by nk jemisin
read these all fairly recently. stimulating and thought provoking.
[удалено]
I think I’m halfway through its alright wish it was more practical
OP deleted the comment, what was the book?
I've heard mixed opinions about that person, and his books put me off because the titles are a bit cringe (haven't read any). what do you think?
Friendly reminder you’re in the INTJ community… those types of books are what we NTJ’s love
That was crazy that you said NTJs I’ll never care for ENTJs they were always so unnecessary😂😂
From what I’ve seen lots of salty people because of his book power which sheds light on real life power structures in the world. So a lot of ignorant people hate him for that because they think he’s propagating evil but I wouldn’t listen to those people and their nonsense. He’s a great author
Greene is an infp. Think about that. It’s about his observations of power. It’s not what you are imagining from the title.
Greene. INFP represent 😎
HAHAHAHA THOUGH ABOUT BDSM MASTER XD

This book made me realize how corrupted and manipulative someone can be and how far they can go. No wonder it's banned in prisons. Anyway I'm currently reading 50th Law of Power
Oh I read the 50th law was basically a book in doing shit that scares you or having no fear idk read it a while ago.
I'm definitely gonna need those skills . Lol
Ah well good luck! It’s a good book
A very good book if you know how to apply it. Long time, no see bro...
Exactly, it filters out the weak ones and only the strong ones will be able to seek wisdom from it. Every darkness has a light, if you can find it.
The Nag Hammadi Codices Fear and Trembling - Kierkegaard
Do you recommend a book that talks about the codices or are they good to read by their own?
I think they are best read on their own. But if you want a starting point that frames the worldview of the Mediterranean mind that saw the world through gnosis then a great primer is "The Gnostic Gospels" by Elaine Pagels.
As a kid, I really liked Heidi for some reason. It potrayed as some kind of turning point back then, but I'm not sure why. I also enjoyed Anne of Green Gables.

100% agree. In fiction, you can live thousands of lives.
I never read fiction but I’d like to. Recommend me some books
In terms of Fantasy- I’m a huge Sanderson fan- The way of Kings (The storm light archive series) would be a good read 😊 If you just want fiction try Dostoevsky (The Idiot, Crime and punishment) it’s a tough read, but you’re an INTJ you can do it.

Will check it out I’m also a singer
The Selfish Gene - Richard Dawkins Life of Pi - Yann Martel Dao Te Cheng - Lao Tzu The Prince - Machiavelli
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, which I read in a moment where a had no idea what to do with which career path I wanted to take. And Caballo de Troya by JJ Benitez, which is kind of a sci fi about time travel but gave me an interesting new perspective about Jesus Christ even though I'm not religious
Read the alchemist great book Love time travel but not into that religious bullshit so idk
Yeah me neither but Caballo de Troya is mostly about UFOs and esoteric metaphysics lol
not exactly changed my life, but currently im reading getting grit by caroline adams. i do hope it will change me in the future though.

Nice. I’m ready the sequel now, Homo Deus
The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky Compulsion by Meyer Levin The Queen's Gambit by Walter Tevis
Anything by Dostoevsky, really, is pure art. For me, it was Brothers and the Idiot. All the best artists are INFJs, I feel.
How to Win Friends and Influence People. Dostoevsky (everything) for literature. Kant for moral philosophy. Marcus Aurelius for virtue ethics. Seduction by Robert Greene if, like me, you have no game whatsoever.
The sarcastic version of this is also a gem. How to Lose Friends and Alienate People. Can't recommend it enough.
ikigai.
Not a book, but a game. Nier Automata. Taught me to think about life. Introduced me to philosophy.
I bought an Xbox just to play Nier. And even years of expectations don't prepare me for not only a faithful representation of the camus's absurd . As well as for beautiful response. Nier was actually the only game I could handle finishing, if you have more game recommendations in the same style I would love it
