Started reading "The Courage to be Happy" by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga.
This is part 2 of the "The Courage" series - the first one being the absolutely amazing "The Courage to be Disliked". The back of that book states 'A book can change your life' and that book certainly has the power to.
Early signs of this book are promising. It is written in the same student-philosopher dialogue, which is easy to read. It is definitely hard-hitting because it challenges every notion you have about life - Adlerian Philosophy (on which the book is based) is meant to shock and provoke.
Definitely pick it up if you read the first one. If not, then read Courage to be Disliked first.
My latest book, Make Epic Money, has sold 1,15,000+ copies in India with a 4.4+ rating.
It is the simplest book I know on personal finance, while I am extremely biased when I say this :))
You can buy it in Hindi, English, Marathi, Audio, and Kindle here.
Here is an alphabetical list of all books I have shared in this newsletter so far.

Results of last week's question
The world seems to be suffering from procrastination! Interesting.
From these options, the one that I struggle with the most is lack of knowledge. There is so much to know and I always feel I know nothing or certainly not enough. So, it's this chase for knowing more all the time!

1 new thing I learnt this week
Smartwatches, apparently, do not work on tattoos.
Tattoo ink can prevent your smartwatch from recognizing that you're actually wearing it. There's no real way to tell which type of tattoos confuse smartwatches the most, though it tends to be those with dense designs and darker ink.
The surest watch that doesn't work is the Apple Watch.
That's because its sensors use colour and various spectrums of light to detect heart rates. An unnatural pigmentation interferes with this process.
How cool :))
