Yea, Lindy. From the term popularised in Taleb’s Antifragile.
That is how most of the folks I learn from, read.
Shane Parrish uses it as a guide to choose a book.
As do the readers of his blog at Farnam Street.
Vishal Khandelwal writes about it on his awesome blog.
And also uses it as a guide to reading for investors.
So these, are my Lindy books.
The ones I cherish and have read ragged and have gifted and own multiple formats of.
The ones I reread every, single, year.
- The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
- The Song of the Bird, Anthony de Mello
- Meditations, Marcus Aurelius
- The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexandre Dumas
- Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder, Nassim Nicholas Taleb (one of the few books that changed my life … and made me fall in love with reading all over again)
- Atomic Habits, James Clear
- So Good They Can’t Ignore You, Cal Newport
- Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World, Cal Newport
- Bird by Bird, Anne Lamott
- Brave Enough, Cheryl Strayed
