"Essentialism" Overview
Greg McKeown cuts through the jargon of productivity literature to remind his readers the one thing they are losing sight of in the face of increasing opportunities: no one can have it all. He builds on the personal philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi, Steve Jobs, and other iconic personalities to offer insightful, research-backed, and practical tips for taking back control of your life by embracing the power of less.
"The Checklist Manifesto" Overview
Atul Gawande takes the reader through the chaos of the surgical ward, the intricate design of a skyscraper, and the secretive world of million-dollar investment firms in his search for something everyone is looking for: a solution to information rapidly getting out of control.
"Designing Your Life" Overview
Design thinking has helped hundreds of their students resolve some of their most pressing problems and dilemmas, and it can do the same for you too. The duo reminds you - with the clarity and assurance that's only the reserve of seasoned instructors - that it's okay if you haven't figured out your life yet because there are multiple lives you could have.
"The One Thing" Overview
The ONE thing is a dominant theme in the lives of people who have achieved extraordinary success, from iconic business executives to decorated Olympians. The authors contend that success is a sequential process that begins with a deceptively small step: finding the ONE thing that makes everything else easier or unnecessary and doing it exceptionally well.
"The Obstacle Is the Way" Overview
If you don't want to spend time reading a book about Stoicism, Ryan Holiday has a better option for you. "The Obstacle is the Way" is an excellent self-help book that showcases numerous instances of great people who created history. It is inspiring and motivational, to say the least. Primarily, this book offers advice to turn any obstacle into an advantage.
