Sequences highlights, then read all the ones from Rationality from AI to Zombies, at whatever pace you feel like (e.g. one or ten per morning), you can read them in order or in random order.
Many recommend the CFAR handbook (that one in particular seems like a good fit for you), Scott Alexander’s Codex, and the book Inadequate Equilibria.
Unlike the sequences, with the CFAR handbook you have to consciously practice, not just read and know it. Once each habit is built it’s automatic, but the muscle memory requires repetition.
I have also been recommended the books Super Thinking, Superforecasting, and the post on Functional Decision Theory. They’re all great but they aren’t standard texts (yet). I personally recommend Tuning your Cognitive Strategies, but if that one causes you harm somehow then please stop and write a Lesswrong post about the details, or for anything you discover, it’s a neglected area so it’s big deal whenever someone makes a big discovery there.
