Reading Antifragile by Nassim Taleb was eye-opening for me. I turn to the concepts of the book whenever I feel unsure about a decision or opinion.

Not saying this book is 100% correct and perfect, but most parts of it is still relevant and refreshingly insightful even after 20 years. I sure learned a lot about great engineering and generally how to approch and tackle difficult problems from it.
