Productivity and psychology reading list
I am interested in behavioural psychology, such as why humans do certain things that way and how certain traits are within our subconscious. I have been trying to learn on how to hack my productivity from reading these books. This is my reading list. Can I have some recommendations from the IH community?
The Psychology of Persuasion - Robert Cialdini
Principles of Life and Work - Ray Dalio
The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen Covey
Anti-Fragile - Nassim Nicholas
Atomic Habits - James Clear
The Power of Habits - Charles Duhigg
The 4 Hour Work Week - Tim Ferriss
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck - Mark Manson
The Paradox of Choice - Barry Schwartz
Thinking, Fast and Slow - Daniel Kahneman
On a side note:
I collated some psychological tips from these books into a cheat sheet to hack your productivity. Check it out here

Wow one of the co-founders of indie hackers! Thank you for the recommendations. Will put in my reading list for the year!
I came to recommend The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey and I saw that you had it, so +1 for that.
There was one part of it that stuck with me. I'm paraphrasing but it has something to do with leverage. For example, if cleaning your workspace helps you concentrate, then buckle down for 30 minutes and clean it up. The productivity gain can easily be from 2x to 4x. Saves you also from hurling cash at coworking spaces or coffee shops. I guess that would fall under compounding effects (circular growth) on your cheatsheet? Nicely done by the way.
Thinking fast and slow.
