Great Personal Development Reading List

I am preparing for my talk at Quantified Self about my work on Programmable Self. I was asked to make a “reading list” for the people who were interested in this subject so I wanted to create that here. Please add links in my comments section for titles that I have omitted!! Requirements for inclusion are simple. Anything that applies to using technology to change your own behavior.

Programmable Self Reading List

Great reading list. I read about 1/3rd of it, another 1/3rd was in my “to read” list (link goes to GoodReads, where I keep track of my books) and I added the rest. Good catch!

I’d also add few of my favorites:

  • Personal Development for Smart People   – really good “foundation” book for many personal development techniques, theories and practices. As a side note: Holy crap! This book is just $1.79 for Kindle version now. I think I paid something like $25 for hardcover and another $10-$15 for the Kindle version.
  • The Now Habit – how to deal with the procrastination, probably the worst enemy of the habit change.
  • The Procrastinator’s Handbook – another book on procrastination that I really like
