However, getting inspired by the real-life stories from some of the best autobiographies can help jump-start us back into productivity. Reading about other people’s unique viewpoints and life experiences can help provide us with a better understanding of life and expand our horizons. Being exposed to new ideas is one of the best ways to learn and grow as an individual.

Here’re some of the best autobiographies for your perusal

1. The Story of My Experiments with Truth By Mahatma Gandhi

As a freedom fighter and activist, Mohandas Gandhi led India to independence after a long and difficult struggle. In his book, “An Autobiography: My Life and My Experiences with the Truth,” he recounts his experiences fighting against English colonialism and spreading his philosophy of “Satyagraha.” It is one of the most popular autobiographies in education, both in India and abroad.

Gandhi’s autobiography is not only a helpful guide for moral and ethical living, but it also shows us that he is human and capable of making mistakes. He tells us about his own personal growth and how his experiments with different lifestyle choices have led him to a more committed and honest way of living. From his vegetarianism to his self-denial, Gandhi’s commitment to doing what he believes is good is evident in all aspects of his life. If you’re looking for an inspirational and educational autobiography, Gandhi’s is definitely one of the best.

2. The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin
By Benjamin Franklin

Through Writing, Franklin creates a place where his memories can live on in perpetuity, separate from his physical body, as part of collective memory.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is an intentional attempt to rewrite his past in a way that readers – including his son and American society – will understand, even if they did not fully live it.

Franklin’s lifelong pursuit of self-improvement began at a young age. Franklin’s desire for perfection led him to devise a plan to achieve it in just 13 weeks by eliminating bad habits.

3. Long Walk to Freedom By Nelson Mandela

An excerpt from Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela’s Autobiography, Nelson Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom is an excellent depiction of the battle for black liberation in South Africa. In this inspiring autobiography, Mandela details his journey from being a political prisoner to becoming the country’s first black president. One of the best aspects of the book is that it provides an inside look at the man who led the fight against apartheid and helped bring about democracy in South Africa.

Assuring his country’s invulnerability to such oppression, Mandela greeted the assembled dignitaries with a polite bow during his speech.

As the country’s first black president, he founded democracy and vowed that no one would be discriminated against, regardless of race, color, creed, or ethnicity.

That the government will treat everyone equally and with respect was a promise he made many times again. Mandela’s struggles and accomplishments make his account one of the most inspiring autobiographies of all time.

4. Chronicles, Volume 1 By Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan began his incredible musical career when he landed in New York City in the early 1960s. Dylan’s own words present an intimate glimpse of Dylan’s motives, difficulties, and astonishing creativity in Chronicles, Vol 1.

On the surface, Dylan’s memoir comprises three chapters on his childhood and youth, which are surrounded by two chapters about

Dylan’s experiences while working on two completely unappreciated albums. The literary aspect of this work is what first grabs the reader’s attention.

Therefore, it made sense to place the two chapters that focus on an older, more broken self in between the three chapters about an artist who is still striving to find his voice. This way, the reader can see how the dreams witnessed in the latter are refracted and only half-lit. However, they are still present. The book’s title is also significant because it alludes to the many debts the protagonist has both literally and figuratively.

5. The Diary of a Young Girl By Anne Frank

The Diary of a Young Girl, written by Anne Frank, is one of the best-known autobiographies in existence. Anne Frank was a Jewish teenager who lived in Amsterdam during World War II. She and her family were forced to go into hiding to avoid being captured by the Nazis. For two years, Anne and seven others stayed in Amsterdam’s “Secret Annex.” However, they were eventually captured and deported to German concentration camps. Anne Frank died in the Bergen-Belsen detention camp in 1945. Anne’s father was the last survivor of the family. He decided to publish her diary, which details her thoughts, feelings, and observations while she was hiding.

Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl has been a best seller worldwide and a staple of Holocaust teaching programs for decades. Her legacy is honored by several humanitarian groups. It is one of the best autobiographies and is read in several languages by people all around the world.
