Transcending the Levels of Consciousness

David R. Hawkins

David R. Hawkins' "Transcending the Levels of Consciousness" explores the spectrum of human consciousness, ranging from shame and guilt to enlightenment. Hawkins presents a map of consciousness, illustrating the different levels of awareness and their corresponding emotional states. He argues that the level of consciousness one operates from significantly impacts their life experiences.

Richer, Wiser, Happier

How the World's Greatest Investors Win in Markets and Life

William Green

In Richer, Wiser, Happier, William Green draws on interviews conducted over twenty-five years with many of the world’s greatest investors. The book highlights that the most successful investors are mavericks and iconoclasts who question conventional wisdom and think rationally, rigorously, and objectively. They maximize their odds of long-term success in markets and life by drawing insights from diverse fields such as neuroscience, economic history, psychology, philosophy, and more. Green explains how these investors can teach us not only how to become rich but also how to improve our thinking, decision-making, risk assessment, and resilience, and how to turn uncertainty to our advantage.
