During this time of WFH, it is important to take breaks through the day that would usually be filled with stimulating chats with co-workers. Here is an opinionated collection of some of the most stimulating content on the web and in books.

Backstory

For years I have kept a Google doc of links, snippets and quotes of the best content I have come across. I have found most of that list to be personally and professionally profound. After my first week being essentially locked inside my home, I realized that I needed a mental reset and found myself rereading/rewatching some of my favorite content that I have collect over the years.

And that got me thinking that others might need this type of reset too.

So I searched to see what resources there were like my Google doc that I might be able to share out. Unfortunately, I found nada. Sure there are plenty of "Top 7 Marketing Books That Will Change Your Life", but I didn't really find any truly curated lists of mixed content types

Solution

So... I took that Google doc and paired it down to the bare essentials of each of the chosen areas of focus. I have labeled each piece of content in three ways:

Subject

Type of content (book, essay, podcast, etc.)

Length of commitment to finish it the first time through

I also worked to provide only free resources. There are two exceptions:

Books generally cost money

There are a few courses that I added because the value received has been far outweighed by the cost

Interested in contributing?

There are a few sections that are pretty sparse (I'm looking at you engineering sections 👀). I would love you to collaborate on this document if you find it useful. At the top of this page hit the submit your own button. There is a brief form there to get your own favorite content/idea/principle added to this doc.

Stay safe and healthy out there.
