This is like the OG self help book. Everything from Power of Now to Atomic Habits has been borrowed from this. The only complaint I have is that the book isn't structured well. It has gems scattered across different chapters.

A good summary of all health, self-help, and psychology tools. It is set at a fast pace, with relevant quotes every now and then.

Worth a read to refresh your understanding of body and mind. The best part about the book is that it constantly reaffirms that everything about you can be changed with enough effort.

A brutal story of what it takes to build one of largest most impactful business from scratch. Aggressive, brutal, and innovative - that's how the book covers Bezos.

It also does a good job of covering the important executives who made Amazon what it is today.

Despite being non-fiction, Michael Lewis does a beautiful job of bringing alive quirky characters and making us root for them.

From the Mossad's authors, Commando takes us through special forces missions of the Israel Defence Forces. It has some overlap with Mossad.

The book is paced very differently. Mossad takes us chronologically through each phase of Mossad under its new head while Commando jumps us quickly through the missions albeit not without ample context.

I would rate it a shade below 4 for those expecting it at the same level as Mossad. Regardless, every chapter does leave us in awe of the doggedness, chutzpah, and nationalism of IDF.
