Have you ever found yourself struggling with information overload? Have you ever felt both overworked and underutilised? Do you ever feel busy but not productive? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is to become an essentialist. In Essentialism, Greg McKeown, CEO of a leadership and strategy agency in Silicon Valley who has run courses at Apple, Google and Facebook, shows you how to achieve what he calls the disciplined pursuit of less.

Pity the author doesn’t take his own advice
Revisado: 06-14-21
I’m sure there were some excellent nuggets in this book but the repetition and poorly delivered mission to create an Essentialist movement (I’m guessing) made it hard to wade through the self-righteous noise. The important points could have been condensed into an essential few ideas & action points. In addition the author identified every ideal human behaviour from being punctual to planning ahead & living a healthy life as a sign of being the coveted ‘Essentialist’. Eugh - I wanted to get through it to hear the essential points but eventually had to concede that the sunk-cost effort didn’t outweigh the irritation.

Inspiring

Life changing no matter if you buy into the whole package or not. This book will make you think about how and what you do. Very well read and easy to listen too. Though as another reader mentioned, the reading of the full web addresses etc was a bit tedious

Tame the Primitive Brain offers a new and simple system to understanding and controlling the behavior of others.

A little old
Revisado: 12-19-15
The information was not particularly fresh and the perspectives were very much related to a corporate (unpleasant) work environment. A fairly superficial look at how our primitive brain influences our behaviour. The reader had a particularly annoying style for me.

Most of us have a habit we'd like to change, and there's no shortage of expert advice. But as we all know from tough experience, no magic, one-size-fits-all solution exists. It takes work to make a habit, but once that habit is set, we can harness the energy of habits to build happier, stronger, more productive lives. In Better Than Before, acclaimed writer Gretchen Rubin identifies every approach that actually works. She presents a practical, concrete framework to allow listeners to understand their habits - and to change them for good.

It's personal
Revisado: 12-11-15
I find Gretchen's thoughts and life philosophies interesting and relevant. I thought this book was much more of her own unscientific and unproven thoughts and ideas comparing it to "The Happiness Project" which was more about testing popular science recommendations. Still she sees things in a useful and thought provoking way and I enjoyed hearing her theories (I am a questioner)
