Every lasting change begins in the mind. Before habits shift, before confidence grows, before life starts to feel different—your thinking changes first. Yet most of us try to fix our lives from the outside: new routines, new goals, new environments. When the mind remains the same, the change rarely lasts.Books have a quiet but extraordinary power to reshape the way we think. Not through loud motivation or instant inspiration, but through repeated exposure to better ideas, clearer perspectives, and deeper self-understanding. A truly powerful book doesn’t just inform you, it slowly rewires how you see yourself, others, and the world.The five books on this list are not quick fixes. They challenge mental habits, question limiting beliefs, and invite reflection. Each one works on a different layer of the mind: belief systems, emotional responses, discipline, purpose, and awareness.

Hello,Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin plans to launch over 5,400 satellites to create a new communications network—TeraWave.The network will offer continuous internet access around the world, with the ability to move large amounts of data more quickly than its competitors, according to a BBC report.Moving on to the world of AI, investors have poured billions of dollars into the technology, and CEOs have commented breathlessly that AI will boost productivity. However, per a recent survey by PwC, more than half of the 4,454 CEO respondents said “their companies aren’t yet seeing a financial return from investments in AI.”Although about a third (30%) report increased revenue from AI in the last 12 months, and a quarter (26%) are seeing lower costs, more than half (56%) say they’ve realised neither revenue nor cost benefits, the report said.Meanwhile, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has said the AI boom will create “six-figure salaries” for those building the factories supporting it. Huang’s comments at the World Economic Forum on infrastructure jobs come amid AI hitting the office workforce. Lastly, a specific type of mushroom makes people see little humans, and scientists want to understand why.
