Best books for finding happiness and peace?
Title^ Tired with life and feel lost. Had a break up recently and moved coasts leaving behind comfortable life and friends to be at FAANG. Anyone knows of a good book to read that can help me get back on my feet and not be a pessimist and feel so empty?
Based on your story I’d suggest reading your bank statement balance every 2 weeks or so.
