In this AI-driven era, personal growth still has its own timeline. By mid-2024, I stopped buying books, realizing I had more unread than read. At year-end, I chose 13 key books and used ChatGPT (inspired by The One Thing) to prioritize them. I asked, “If I could only read one, which would have the greatest impact?” ChatGPT picked the top book, then repeated the process for the rest, creating a personalized curriculum.
