The Power of Now

I spent a lot of time in my head. Tolle's point is that's not actually where life happens.

The book's argument is that the present moment is the only place anything actually exists, and that most human suffering comes from the mind refusing to be there — replaying the past or rehearsing the future.

It challenges something I'd never really questioned before: the assumption that the running commentary in my head is who I am, rather than something I'm observing.

Some sections I read twice. The ideas that stayed have stayed longer than almost anything else on this list.
