Learn to be good to yourself with this clear and compassionate guide.\n\nDo you set demanding standards for yourself? If so, a lot likely goes well in your life: You might earn compliments, admiration, or accomplishments. Your high standards and hard work pay off.\n\nBut privately, you may feel like you’re falling behind, faking it, or different from everybody else. Your eagle-eyed inner quality control inspector highlights every mistake. You try hard to avoid criticism, but criticize yourself. Trying to get it right is your guiding light, but it has lit the way to a place of dissatisfaction, loneliness, or disconnection. In short, you may look like you’re hitting it out of the park, but you feel like you’re striking out.\n\nThis is perfectionism. And for everyone who struggles with it, it’s a misnomer: perfectionism isn’t about striving to be perfect. It’s about never feeling good enough.\n\nDr. Ellen Hendriksen—clinical psychologist, anxiety specialist, and author of How to Be Yourself—is on the same journey as you. In How to Be Enough, Hendriksen charts a flexible, forgiving, and freeing path, all without giving up the excellence your high standards and hard work have gotten you. She delivers seven shifts—including from self-criticism to kindness, control to authenticity, procrastination to productivity, comparison to contentment—to find self-acceptance, rewrite the Inner Rulebook, and most of all, cultivate the authentic human connections we’re all craving.\n\nWith compassion and humor, Hendriksen lays out a clear, effective, and empowering guide. To enjoy rather than improve, be real rather than impressive, and be good to yourself when you’re wired to be hard on yourself.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"10892946612906607058\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover703681_211004934').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover703681_211004934').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover703681_211004934').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover703681_211004934').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover703681_209087709"> <a href="/book/show/209087709-the-killing-fields-of-east-new-york"><img alt="The Killing Fields of East New York: The First Subprime Mortgage Scandal, a White-Collar Crime Spree, and the Collapse of an American Neighborhood" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1718900125l/209087709._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover703681_209087709'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209087709-the-killing-fields-of-east-new-york?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">The Killing Fields of East New York: The First Subprime Mortgage Scandal, a White-Collar Crime Spree, and the Collapse of an American Neighborhood<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/4035.Stacy_Horn\">Stacy Horn<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\" title=\"really liked it\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\">really liked it<\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p0\"><\/span><\/span> 4.00 avg rating — 61 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer467547414443803509\">In this groundbreaking work of investigative journalism and true crime, Stacy Horn sheds light on how the subprime mortgage scandal of the 1970s and a long history of white-collar crime slowly devastated East New York, a Brooklyn neighborhood that would come to be known as the Killing Fields.

On a warm summer evening in 1991, seventeen-year-old Julia Parker was murdered in the Brooklyn neighborhood of East New York. An area known for an exorbitant level of violence and crime, East New York had come to be known as the Killing Fields. In the six months after Julia Parker’s death, 62 more people were murdered in the same area. In the early 1990s, murder rates in the neighborhood climbed to the highest in NYPD history. East New York was dying. But how did this once thriving, diverse, family neighborhood fall into such ruin? The answer can be found two decades earlier. In response to redlining and discriminatory housing practices, the Johnson administration passed the Housing and Urban Development Act in 1968. The Federal Housing Authority aimed to use this piece of legislation to help low-income families of color finally achieve homeownership. But they could never have predicted how banks, lenders, realtors, and corrupt FHA officials themselves would use the newly passed law to make victims of the very people they were trying to help, and the devastation they would leave in their wake. A compulsively readable hybrid of true crime and investigative journalism, The Killing Fields of East New York reveals how white-collar crime reduced a prospering neighborhood to abandoned buildings and empty lots. Following the dual threads of the hunt for the network of criminals behind the first subprime mortgage scandal and the ensuing downfall of East New York, Stacy Horn weaves a compelling narrative of government failure, a desperate community, and ultimately the largest series of mortgage fraud prosecutions in American history. The Killing Fields of East New York deftly demonstrates how different types of crime are profoundly entangled, and how the crimes committed in nice suits and corner offices are just as destructive as those committed on the street.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"467547414443803509\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover703681_209087709').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover703681_209087709').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover703681_209087709').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover703681_209087709').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover703681_214151728"> <a href="/book/show/214151728-mood-machine"><img alt="Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1719020929l/214151728._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover703681_214151728'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/214151728-mood-machine?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/19727847.Liz_Pelly\">Liz Pelly<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.02 avg rating — 454 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer3132926121680839524\">With unprecedented access and unsparing analysis, this is the definitive investigation into Spotify, weaving interviews with incisive cultural criticism, and illuminating how streaming has reshaped music for listeners and artists alike.Flush with testimony from over a hundred industry insiders, form<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText3132926121680839524\" style=\"display:none\">With unprecedented access and unsparing analysis, this is the definitive investigation into Spotify, weaving interviews with incisive cultural criticism, and illuminating how streaming has reshaped music for listeners and artists alike.Flush with testimony from over a hundred industry insiders, former Spotify employees, and musicians, Mood Machine takes us into the inner workings of the highly consolidated modern music business and how it has become personalized, playlisted, autoplayed, and algorithmic. With an expert’s eye, music journalist Liz Pelly reveals how Spotify’s two-sided marketplace—the listeners who pay with their dollars and data, and the musicians who provide the material powering it all—has changed music media forever. She also explores how musicians and listeners are coming together to fight this era of musical individualism and advocate for artists’ futures. Amazon Unbound and Weapons of Math Destruction for the music industry, Mood Machine is a timely and unputdownable exploration of a company that has become synonymous with music.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"3132926121680839524\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover703681_214151728').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover703681_214151728').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover703681_214151728').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover703681_214151728').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover703681_217812221"> <a href="/book/show/217812221-equality"><img alt="Equality: What It Means and Why It Matters" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1724100194l/217812221._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover703681_217812221'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/217812221-equality?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Equality: What It Means and Why It Matters<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/795282.Thomas_Piketty\">Thomas Piketty<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p6\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p0\"><\/span><\/span> 3.96 avg rating — 84 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer2043157371099317799\">In this compelling dialogue, two of the world’s most influential thinkers reflect on the value of equality and debate what citizens and governments should do to narrow the gaps that separate us.

Ranging across economics, philosophy, history, and current affairs, Thomas Piketty and Michael Sandel consider how far we have come in achieving greater equality. At the same time, they confront head-on the extreme divides that remain in wealth, income, power, and status nationally and globally.\n\nWhat can be done at a time of deep political instability and environmental crisis? Piketty and Sandel agree on much: more inclusive investment in health and education, higher progressive taxation, curbing the political power of the rich and the overreach of markets. But how far and how fast can we push? Should we prioritize material or social change? What are the prospects for any change at all with nationalist forces resurgent? How should the left relate to values like patriotism and local solidarity where they collide with the challenges of mass migration and global climate change?\n\nTo see Piketty and Sandel grapple with these and other problems is to glimpse new possibilities for change and justice but also the stubborn truth that progress towards greater equality never comes quickly or without deep social conflict and political struggle.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"2043157371099317799\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover703681_217812221').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover703681_217812221').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover703681_217812221').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover703681_217812221').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover703681_214490408"> <a href="/book/show/214490408-house-of-huawei"><img alt="House of Huawei: The Secret History of China's Most Powerful Company" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1719031646l/214490408._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover703681_214490408'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/214490408-house-of-huawei?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">House of Huawei: The Secret History of China's Most Powerful Company<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/40241386.Eva_Dou\">Eva Dou<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.01 avg rating — 172 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer7684126811700327147\">The untold story of the mysterious family dynasty at the center of China's Huawei.On December 1, 2018, Meng Wanzhou, daughter of Ren Zhengfei, founder and CEO of China's most powerful company, Huawei Technologies, was detained at the request of U.S. authorities as she prepared to board a flight out <\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText7684126811700327147\" style=\"display:none\">The untold story of the mysterious family dynasty at the center of China\'s Huawei.On December 1, 2018, Meng Wanzhou, daughter of Ren Zhengfei, founder and CEO of China\'s most powerful company, Huawei Technologies, was detained at the request of U.S. authorities as she prepared to board a flight out of Vancouver, Canada. The detention of Huawei\'s female scion set the U.S.-China trade skirmish on fire - and, for the first time, revealed the Ren family\'s prominence in Beijing\'s power structure.In The Listening State, acclaimed Washington Post reporter Eva Dou exposes the untold story of the rise of Ren Zhengfei and the mysterious family dynasty at the center of Huawei, whose connections to state apparatus reveal a deeper truth about China\'s surveillance web and its global ambitions. Through its technologies, Huawei has helped solidify and enforce China\'s growing police state, in which outspoken entrepreneurs like Jack Ma have been silenced, tycoons have disappeared, and executives must put patriotism above profit.Based on over a decade of on-the-ground reporting and an astonishing trove of confidential documents never published in English, The Listening State paints an epic story of familial and political intrigue that shines a clarifying light on how business and government work together in an authoritarian state, and how companies fit into China\'s international ambitions under Xi Jinping.The story of Ren Zhengfei and Huawei exposes the human face of China\'s modern security state and gets to the heart of the central questions of the U.S.-China trade How did these turbocharged Chinese companies emerge? Who really controls them? And what does China\'s growing surveillance web mean for the Chinese people - and for the rest of the world?<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"7684126811700327147\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'rightMiddle', hook: { tip: 'rightMiddle', target: 'leftMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover703681_214490408').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover703681_214490408').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover703681_214490408').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover703681_214490408').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="coverRow "> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover703681_223242502"> <a href="/book/show/223242502-think-clearly"><img alt="Think Clearly: Eight Simple Rules to Succeed in the Data Age" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1735972794l/223242502._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover703681_223242502'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/223242502-think-clearly?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Think Clearly: Eight Simple Rules to Succeed in the Data Age<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/22872051.Kiko_Llaneras\">Kiko Llaneras<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.13 avg rating — 282 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer2242216339721750875\">It’s almost impossible to feel confident we’ve made the right choice when we are constantly faced with conflicting data.

In this groundbreaking work, van Pelt introduces "Precision Problem Solving," a fresh, no-hypothesis approach that reveals how entrenched problem-solving methods have failed to transform the healthcare landscape. His methodology rejects conventional thinking and instead focuses on addressing conflict to create safe learning conditions, objective observation, and sustained solutions through comprehensive understanding of core functional problems.<br /><br />With over thirty years of clinical experience, van Pelt outlines practical solutions for navigating the chaotic intricacies of healthcare. For example, he discusses how misaligned approaches to patient safety have hindered progress and why fragmented management systems continue to exacerbate burnout. He also explores the importance of interprofessional collaboration, offering insights into how healthcare systems can foster empowerment and ownership by eliminating conflict and focusing on comprehensive understanding.<br /><br />This book offers a much-needed alternative for healthcare leaders, professionals, and administrators seeking to enact lasting, transformative change. It provides a methodology along with tools designed for practical implementation in complex environments where the stakes are high. <i>It’s Not What You’re Thinking</i> is essential reading for anyone ready to challenge the status quo and build a more reliable, sustainable system.</span> <a data-text-id="10619734420122644736" href="#" onclick="swapContent($(this));; return false;">...more</a> <br /> <a class="actionLink detailsLink" style="float: right" href="/giveaway/show/405802-it-s-not-what-you-re-thinking-precision-problem-solving-with-no-hypothe">View Details »</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class=" actions giveawayPreviewDetailsContainer"> <div class="mediumTextBottomPadded"> <a class="gr-button" rel="nofollow" href="/giveaway/enter_kindle_giveaway/405802-it-s-not-what-you-re-thinking-precision-problem-solving-with-no-hypothe">Enter Giveaway</a> </div> <div class="sansSerif"> <p class="giveawayDetailItem"> <b class="giveawayDetailItemTitle">Format:</b> <img alt="Kindle book" src="https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/kindle_logo-a2f70ffa7db0218336b74c0d104db407.png" /> </p> <p class="giveawayDetailItem"> <b class="giveawayDetailItemTitle">Giveaway ends in:</b> <strong id="timer_405802" class="countdownText">a</strong> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> //<![CDATA[ var timer_405802_end_at = 194521 + new Date().getTime()/1000; function timer_405802_updateTimer() { var time_left = ""; var secs_left = timer_405802_end_at - new Date().getTime()/1000; if(secs_left <= 0) { document.getElementById("timer_405802").innerHTML = "closed"; clearInterval(timer_405802_updater); return; } var minutes_left = secs_left / 60; var hours_left = minutes_left / 60; var days_left = Math.floor(hours_left / 24); if(days_left > 0) { if(false){ time_left += days_left + ":"; }else{ time_left += days_left + " days and "; } } if(false){ time_left += Math.floor(hours_left%24/10) time_left += Math.floor(hours_left%24)%10 + ":"; }else{ time_left += Math.floor(hours_left%24) + ":"; } time_left += Math.floor(minutes_left%60/10); time_left += Math.floor(minutes_left%10) + ":"; time_left += Math.floor(secs_left%60/10); time_left += Math.floor(secs_left%10); document.getElementById("timer_405802").innerHTML = time_left; } timer_405802_updateTimer(); var timer_405802_updater = setInterval(timer_405802_updateTimer, 100); //]]> </script> <br/> </p> <p class="giveawayDetailItem"> <b class="giveawayDetailItemTitle">Availability:</b> 100 copies available, 534 people requesting </p> <p class="giveawayDetailItem"> <b class="giveawayDetailItemTitle">Giveaway dates:</b> Feb 09 - Feb 24, 2025 </p> <p class="giveawayDetailItem"> <b class="giveawayDetailItemTitle">Countries available:</b> U.S. </p> <div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </li> <li class="listElement giveawayListItem"> <div class="giveawayPreviewBookContainer"> <div class="coverImage"> <a href="/book/show/223919373-the-dakota-way"><img alt="The Dakota Way by Gui Costin" title="The Dakota Way by Gui Costin" width="90" class="bookCover" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1737665081l/223919373._SX98_.jpg" /></a> </div> <div class="description descriptionContainer"> <a class="bookTitle" href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/223919373-the-dakota-way">The Dakota Way: Time-Tested Principles That Will Turn You Into a World-Class Fundraiser</a> <br/> <div id="bookAuthors" class=""> <span class='by'>by</span> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <div class='authorName__container'> <a class="authorName" itemprop="url" href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/18937785.Gui_Costin"><span itemprop="name">Gui Costin</span></a> <span class="greyText">(Goodreads Author)</span>, </div> <div class='authorName__container'> <a class="authorName" itemprop="url" href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/54289119.Morgan_Holycross"><span itemprop="name">Morgan Holycross</span></a> </div> </span> </div> <br/> <div class="greyText releaseDate">Release date: Feb 11, 2025</div> <div class="giveawayDescriptionDetails"> <span id="freeTextContainer4209737454360415082">We're giving away 100 free ebooks of The Dakota Way!

What does the heartbreaking fate of the cheetah tell us about the way we raise our children? Why do Ivy League schools care so much about sports? What is the Magic Third, and what does it mean for racial harmony? In this provocative new work, Malcolm Gladwell returns for the first time in twenty-five years to the subject of social epidemics and tipping points, this time with the aim of explaining the dark side of contagious phenomena.\n \nThrough a series of riveting stories, Gladwell traces the rise of a new and troubling form of social engineering. He takes us to the streets of Los Angeles to meet the world’s most successful bank robbers, rediscovers a forgotten television show from the 1970s that changed the world, visits the site of a historic experiment on a tiny cul-de-sac in northern California, and offers an alternate history of two of the biggest epidemics of our day: COVID and the opioid crisis. Revenge of the Tipping Point is Gladwell’s most personal book yet. With his characteristic mix of storytelling and social science, he offers a guide to making sense of the contagions of modern world.

Evidence has shown that creative geniuses are not attached to one identity, but constantly willing to rethink their stances and that leaders who admit they don\'t know something and seek critical feedback lead more productive and innovative teams.\n\nNew evidence shows us that as a mindset and a skilllset, rethinking can be taught and Grant explains how to develop the necessary qualities to do it. Section 1 explores why we struggle to think again and how we can learn to do it as individuals, arguing that \'grit\' alone can actually be counterproductive. Section 2 discusses how we can help others think again through learning about \'argument literacy\'. And the final section 3 looks at how schools, businesses and governments fall short in building cultures that encourage rethinking.\n\nIn the end, learning to rethink may be the secret skill to give you the edge in a world changing faster than ever.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"1872686496195371642\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_55539565').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_55539565').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_55539565').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_55539565').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_213034913"> <a href="/book/show/213034913-source-code"><img alt="Source Code: My Beginnings" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1719004398l/213034913._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_213034913'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/213034913-source-code?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Source Code: My Beginnings<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/23470.Bill_Gates\">Bill Gates<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.31 avg rating — 990 ratings<\/span> — published 2025\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer10096810849973290931\">The origin story of one of the most influential and transformative business leaders and philanthropists of the modern age.\n\nThe business triumphs of Bill Gates are widely known: the twenty-year-old who dropped out of Harvard to start a software company that became an industry giant and changed the w<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText10096810849973290931\" style=\"display:none\">The origin story of one of the most influential and transformative business leaders and philanthropists of the modern age.\n\nThe business triumphs of Bill Gates are widely known: the twenty-year-old who dropped out of Harvard to start a software company that became an industry giant and changed the way the world works and lives; the billionaire many times over who turned his attention to philanthropic pursuits to address climate change, global health, and U.S. education.\n\nSource Code is not about Microsoft or the Gates Foundation or the future of technology.

It will gladden the hearts of writers and artists everywhere, and get them working again with a new sense of meaning and direction. A stunning accomplishment." --Anne Lamott\n\n"I set out to write a book about what to do to make a great work of art. Instead, it revealed itself to be a book on how to be." --Rick Rubin\n\nMany famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, as he has thought deeply about where creativity comes from and where it doesn\'t, he has learned that being an artist isn\'t about your specific output, it\'s about your relationship to the world. Creativity has a place in everyone\'s life, and everyone can make that place larger. In fact, there are few more important responsibilities.\n\nThe Creative Act is a beautiful and generous course of study that illuminates the path of the artist as a road we all can follow. It distills the wisdom gleaned from a lifetime\'s work into a luminous reading experience that puts the power to create moments--and lifetimes--of exhilaration and transcendence within closer reach for all of us.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"7180872430544433855\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'rightMiddle', hook: { tip: 'rightMiddle', target: 'leftMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_60965426').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_60965426').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_60965426').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_60965426').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="coverRow "> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_54785515"> <a href="/book/show/54785515-four-thousand-weeks"><img alt="Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1627425434l/54785515._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_54785515'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54785515-four-thousand-weeks?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/4384050.Oliver_Burkeman\">Oliver Burkeman<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.21 avg rating — 103,986 ratings<\/span> — published 2021\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer8295974391669623049\">The average human lifespan is absurdly, insultingly brief.

Assuming you live to be eighty, you have just over four thousand weeks. \n\nNobody needs to be told there isn’t enough time. We’re obsessed with our lengthening to-do lists, overfilled inboxes, work-life balance, and ceaseless battle against distraction; we’re deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient and life hacks to optimize our days. But such techniques often end up making things worse. The sense of anxious hurry grows more intense, and still the most meaningful parts of life seem to lie just beyond the horizon. Still, we rarely make the connection between our daily struggles with time and the ultimate time management problem: the challenge of how best to use our four thousand weeks. \n\nDrawing on the insights of both ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers, Oliver Burkeman delivers an entertaining, humorous, practical, and ultimately profound guide to time and time management. Rejecting the futile modern obsession with “getting everything done,” Four Thousand Weeks introduces readers to tools for constructing a meaningful life by embracing finitude, showing that many of the unhelpful ways we’ve come to think about time aren’t inescapable, unchanging truths, but choices we’ve made as individuals and as a society—and that we could do things differently.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"8295974391669623049\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_54785515').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_54785515').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_54785515').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_54785515').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_54898389"> <a href="/book/show/54898389-the-almanack-of-naval-ravikant"><img alt="The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1598011736l/54898389._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_54898389'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54898389-the-almanack-of-naval-ravikant?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/4029970.Eric_Jorgenson\">Eric Jorgenson<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.43 avg rating — 58,389 ratings<\/span> — published 2020\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer400510679703011518\">Getting rich is not just about luck; Happiness is not just a trait we are born with.

I wish I could go back in time and gift it to my younger self. It would\'ve helped me find a more joyful path to progress."\n-Serena Williams, 23-time Grand Slam singles tennis champion\n\nThe #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again illuminates how we can elevate ourselves and others to unexpected heights.\n\nWe live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distances we ourselves can travel. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.\n\nHidden Potential offers a new framework for raising aspirations and exceeding expectations. Adam Grant weaves together groundbreaking evidence, surprising insights, and vivid storytelling that takes us from the classroom to the boardroom, the playground to the Olympics, and underground to outer space. He shows that progress depends less on how hard you work than how well you learn. Growth is not about the genius you possess – it’s about the character you develop. Grant explores how to build the character skills and motivational structures to realize our own potential, and how to design systems that create opportunities for those who have been underrated and overlooked.\n\nThis book reveals how anyone can rise to achieve greater things. The true measure of your potential is not the height of the peak you’ve reached, but how far you’ve climbed to get there.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"13868180315221613827\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_157095669').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_157095669').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_157095669').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_157095669').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_112974860"> <a href="/book/show/112974860-how-to-know-a-person"><img alt="How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1684815605l/112974860.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_112974860'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/112974860-how-to-know-a-person?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/3136576.David_Brooks\">David Brooks<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.11 avg rating — 27,058 ratings<\/span> — published 2023\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer1746328486592604777\">NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A practical, heartfelt guide to the art of truly knowing another person in order to foster deeper connections at home, at work, and throughout our lives—from the author of The Road to Character and The Second Mountain\n\nAs David Brooks observes, “There is one skill that li<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText1746328486592604777\" style=\"display:none\">NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A practical, heartfelt guide to the art of truly knowing another person in order to foster deeper connections at home, at work, and throughout our lives—from the author of The Road to Character and The Second Mountain\n\nAs David Brooks observes, “There is one skill that lies at the heart of any healthy person, family, school, community organization, or society: the ability to see someone else deeply and make them feel seen—to accurately know another person, to let them feel valued, heard, and understood.”\n\nAnd yet we humans don’t do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us: If you want to know a person, what kind of attention should you cast on them? What kind of conversations should you have? What parts of a person’s story should you pay attention to?\n\nDriven by his trademark sense of curiosity and his determination to grow as a person, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience and from the worlds of theater, philosophy, history, and education to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate toward others, and to find the joy that comes from being seen. Along the way it offers a possible remedy for a society that is riven by fragmentation, hostility, and misperception.\n\nThe act of seeing another person, Brooks argues, is profoundly creative: How can we look somebody in the eye and see something large in them, and in turn, see something larger in ourselves? How to Know a Person is for anyone searching for connection, and yearning to be understood.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"1746328486592604777\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_112974860').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_112974860').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_112974860').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_112974860').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_125063314"> <a href="/book/show/125063314-be-useful"><img alt="Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1685351182l/125063314.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_125063314'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/125063314-be-useful?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/67084.Arnold_Schwarzenegger\">Arnold Schwarzenegger<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.13 avg rating — 25,560 ratings<\/span> — published 2023\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer8310206409145026739\">The seven rules to follow to realize your true purpose in life—distilled by Arnold Schwarzenegger from his own journey of ceaseless reinvention and extraordinary achievement, and available for absolutely anyone.\n\nThe world’s greatest bodybuilder.

The world’s highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth-largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke, but this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident.\n \nArnold’s stratospheric success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving, open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father hammered into him above be useful. As Arnold conquered every realm he entered, he kept his father’s adage close to his heart.\n \nWritten with his uniquely earnest, blunt, powerful voice, Be Useful takes readers on an inspirational tour through Arnold’s tool kit for a meaningful life. He shows us how to put those tools to work, in service of whatever fulfilling future we can dream up for ourselves. He brings his insights to vivid life with compelling personal stories, life-changing successes and life-threatening failures alike—some of them famous; some told here for the first time ever.\n \nToo many of us struggle to disconnect from our self-pity and connect to our purpose. At an early age, Arnold forged the mental tools to build the ladder out of the poverty and narrow-mindedness of his rural Austrian hometown, tools he used to add rung after rung from there. Now he shares that wisdom with all of us. As he puts it, no one is going to come rescue you—you only have yourself. The good news, it turns out, is that you are all you need.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"8310206409145026739\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'rightMiddle', hook: { tip: 'rightMiddle', target: 'leftMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_125063314').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_125063314').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_125063314').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_125063314').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="coverRow "> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_197773418"> <a href="/book/show/197773418-slow-productivity"><img alt="Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1692883158l/197773418._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_197773418'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/197773418-slow-productivity?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/147891.Cal_Newport\">Cal Newport<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p6\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p0\"><\/span><\/span> 3.70 avg rating — 16,852 ratings<\/span> — published 2024\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer17445907474148890708\">Do fewer things.

Obsess over quality.\n\nFrom the New York Times bestselling author of Digital Minimalism and Deep Work, a groundbreaking philosophy for pursuing meaningful accomplishment while avoiding overload.\n\nOur current definition of “productivity” is broken. It pushes us to treat busyness as a proxy for useful effort, leading to impossibly lengthy task lists and ceaseless meetings. We’re overwhelmed by all we have to do and on the edge of burnout, left to decide between giving into soul-sapping hustle culture or rejecting ambition altogether. But are these really our only choices?\n\nLong before the arrival of pinging inboxes and clogged schedules, history’s most creative and impactful philosophers, scientists, artists, and writers mastered the art of producing valuable work with staying power. In this timely and provocative book, Cal Newport harnesses the wisdom of these traditional knowledge workers to radically transform our modern jobs. Drawing from deep research on the habits and mindsets of a varied cast of storied thinkers—from Galileo and Isaac Newton, to Jane Austen and Georgia O’Keefe—Newport lays out the key principles of “slow productivity,” a more sustainable alternative to the aimless overwhelm that defines our current moment. Combining cultural criticism with systematic pragmatism, Newport deconstructs the absurdities inherent in standard notions of productivity, and then provides step-by-step advice for workers to replace them with a slower, more humane alternative.\n\nFrom the aggressive rethinking of workload management, to introducing seasonal variation, to shifting your performance toward long-term quality, Slow Productivity provides a roadmap for escaping overload and arriving instead at a more timeless approach to pursuing meaningful accomplishment. The world of work is due for a new revolution. Slow productivity is exactly what we need.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"17445907474148890708\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_197773418').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_197773418').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_197773418').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_197773418').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_60321447"> <a href="/book/show/60321447-chip-war"><img alt="Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1662566820l/60321447.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_60321447'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60321447-chip-war?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/10070.Chris_Miller\">Chris Miller<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.43 avg rating — 32,406 ratings<\/span> — published 2022\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer4698525876928977741\">An epic account of the decades-long battle to control what has emerged as the world's most critical resource—microchip technology—with the United States and China increasingly in conflict.\n\nYou may be surprised to learn that microchips are the new oil—the scarce resource on which the modern world de<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText4698525876928977741\" style=\"display:none\">An epic account of the decades-long battle to control what has emerged as the world\'s most critical resource—microchip technology—with the United States and China increasingly in conflict.\n\nYou may be surprised to learn that microchips are the new oil—the scarce resource on which the modern world depends. Today, military, economic, and geopolitical power are built on a foundation of computer chips. Virtually everything— from missiles to microwaves, smartphones to the stock market — runs on chips. Until recently, America designed and built the fastest chips and maintained its lead as the #1 superpower. Now, America\'s edge is slipping, undermined by competitors in Taiwan, Korea, Europe, and, above all, China. Today, as Chip War reveals, China, which spends more money each year importing chips than it spends importing oil, is pouring billions into a chip-building initiative to catch up to the US. At stake is America\'s military superiority and economic prosperity.\n\nEconomic historian Chris Miller explains how the semiconductor came to play a critical role in modern life and how the U.S. become dominant in chip design and manufacturing and applied this technology to military systems. America\'s victory in the Cold War and its global military dominance stems from its ability to harness computing power more effectively than any other power. But here, too, China is catching up, with its chip-building ambitions and military modernization going hand in hand. America has let key components of the chip-building process slip out of its grasp, contributing not only to a worldwide chip shortage but also a new Cold War with a superpower adversary that is desperate to bridge the gap.\n\nIlluminating, timely, and fascinating, Chip War shows that, to make sense of the current state of politics, economics, and technology, we must first understand the vital role played by chips.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"4698525876928977741\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_60321447').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_60321447').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_60321447').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_60321447').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_142402923"> <a href="/book/show/142402923-feel-good-productivity"><img alt="Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1689695229l/142402923._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_142402923'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/142402923-feel-good-productivity?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/41714206.Ali_Abdaal\">Ali Abdaal<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\" title=\"really liked it\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\">really liked it<\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p0\"><\/span><\/span> 4.00 avg rating — 14,971 ratings<\/span> — published 2023\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer10227862344730972\">The secret to productivity isn’t discipline.

It’s joy.\n\nWe think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there’s another way?\n\nDr Ali Abdaal – the world\'s most-followed productivity expert – has uncovered an easier and happier path to success. Drawing on decades of psychological research, he has found that the secret to productivity and success isn\'t grind – it\'s feeling good. If you can make your work feel good, then productivity takes care of itself.\n\nIn this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden \'energisers\' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three \'blockers\' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three \'sustainers\' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfillment.

Everything is about to change. \n \nSoon you will live surrounded by AIs. They will organise your life, operate your business, and run core government services. You will live in a world of DNA printers and quantum computers, engineered pathogens and autonomous weapons, robot assistants and abundant energy. \n \nNone of us are prepared.\n \nAs co-founder of the pioneering AI company DeepMind, part of Google, Mustafa Suleyman has been at the centre of this revolution. The coming decade, he argues, will be defined by this wave of powerful, fast-proliferating new technologies. \n \nIn The Coming Wave , Suleyman shows how these forces will create immense prosperity but also threaten the nation-state, the foundation of global order. As our fragile governments sleepwalk into disaster, we face an existential unprecedented harms on one side, the threat of overbearing surveillance on the other. \n \nCan we forge a narrow path between catastrophe and dystopia?<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"7180754038542994831\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover891494_90590134').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover891494_90590134').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover891494_90590134').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover891494_90590134').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover891494_198678736"> <a href="/book/show/198678736-co-intelligence"><img alt="Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1709537279l/198678736.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover891494_198678736'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/198678736-co-intelligence?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/3366418.Ethan_Mollick\">Ethan Mollick<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.07 avg rating — 7,243 ratings<\/span> — published 2024\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer8984393210526639028\">**A New York Times Bestseller**'Co-Intelligence is the very best book I know about the ins, outs, and ethics of generative AI.

The findings will surprise many readers and, quite frankly, upset others.\n\nThe Challenge\nBuilt to Last, the defining management study of the nineties, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. \n\nBut what about the company that is not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness? \n\nThe Study\nFor years, this question preyed on the mind of Jim Collins. Are there companies that defy gravity and convert long-term mediocrity or worse into long-term superiority? And if so, what are the universal distinguishing characteristics that cause a company to go from good to great?\n\nThe Standards\nUsing tough benchmarks, Collins and his research team identified a set of elite companies that made the leap to great results and sustained those results for at least fifteen years. How great? After the leap, the good-to-great companies generated cumulative stock returns that beat the general stock market by an average of seven times in fifteen years, better than twice the results delivered by a composite index of the world\'s greatest companies, including Coca-Cola, Intel, General Electric, and Merck. \n\nThe Comparisons\nThe research team contrasted the good-to-great companies with a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to make the leap from good to great. What was different? Why did one set of companies become truly great performers while the other set remained only good? \n\nThe Findings\nThe findings of the Good to Great study will surprise many readers and shed light on virtually every area of management strategy and practice. The findings include:\nLevel 5 Leaders: The research team was shocked to discover the type of leadership required to achieve greatness.\n\nThe Hedgehog Concept (Simplicity within the Three Circles): To go from good to great requires transcending the curse of competence.\n\nA Culture of Discipline: When you combine a culture of discipline with an ethic of entrepreneurship, you get the magical alchemy of great results. Technology Accelerators: Good-to-great companies think differently about the role of technology.\n\nThe Flywheel and the Doom Loop: Those who launch radical change programs and wrenching restructurings will almost certainly fail to make the leap.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"5933320780604742012\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_76865').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_76865').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_76865').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_76865').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_18050143"> <a href="/book/show/18050143-zero-to-one"><img alt="Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1630663027l/18050143.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_18050143'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18050143-zero-to-one?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/8474721.Peter_Thiel\">Peter Thiel<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.15 avg rating — 369,668 ratings<\/span> — published 2014\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer1413174815794381381\">If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets.\n\nThe great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create.

In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. \n\nThiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself.\n\nDoing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. \n\nZero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"1413174815794381381\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_18050143').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_18050143').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_18050143').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_18050143').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_10127019"> <a href="/book/show/10127019-the-lean-startup"><img alt="The Lean Startup" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1629999184l/10127019._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_10127019'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10127019-the-lean-startup?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">The Lean Startup<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/278960.Eric_Ries\">Eric Ries<\/a><span title=\"Goodreads Author!\">*<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.11 avg rating — 348,291 ratings<\/span> — published 2011\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer16184559923681875150\">Most startups fail.

But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched. Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.\n\n\n\nThe Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on "validated learning," rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.\n\nRather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs - in companies of all sizes - a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it\'s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"16184559923681875150\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_10127019').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_10127019').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_10127019').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_10127019').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_4865"> <a href="/book/show/4865.How_to_Win_Friends_Influence_People"><img alt="How to Win Friends & Influence People" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1442726934l/4865._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_4865'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4865.How_to_Win_Friends_Influence_People?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">How to Win Friends & Influence People<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/3317.Dale_Carnegie\">Dale Carnegie<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.22 avg rating — 1,076,998 ratings<\/span> — published 1936\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer7695587026098494217\">You can go after the job you want...and get it!

Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over?\n\nPeople like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why. It was their natural ability to start with why that enabled them to inspire those around them and to achieve remarkable things.\n\nIn studying the leaders who\'ve had the greatest influence in the world, Simon Sinek discovered that they all think, act, and communicate in the exact same way—and it\'s the complete opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be lead, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.\n\nAny organization can explain what it does; some can explain how they do it; but very few can clearly articulate why. WHY is not money or profit—those are always results. WHY does your organization exist? WHY does it do the things it does? WHY do customers really buy from one company or another? WHY are people loyal to some leaders, but not others?\n\nStarting with WHY works in big business and small business, in the nonprofit world and in politics. Those who start with WHY never manipulate, they inspire. And the people who follow them don\'t do so because they have to; they follow because they want to.\n\nDrawing on a wide range of real-life stories, Sinek weaves together a clear vision of what it truly takes to lead and inspire.

A lifelong rap fan, Horowitz amplifies business lessons with lyrics from his favorite songs and tells it straight about everything from firing friends to poaching competitors, from cultivating and sustaining a CEO mentality to knowing the right time to cash in.\n\nHis advice is grounded in anecdotes from his own hard-earned rise—from cofounding the early cloud service provider Loudcloud to building the phenomenally successful Andreessen Horowitz venture capital firm, both with fellow tech superstar Marc Andreessen (inventor of Mosaic, the Internet\'s first popular Web browser). This is no polished victory lap; he analyzes issues with no easy answers through his trials, including demoting (or firing) a loyal friend;\nwhether you should incorporate titles and promotions, and how to handle them;\nif it\'s OK to hire people from your friend\'s company; how to manage your own psychology, while the whole company is relying on you; what to do when smart people are bad employees; why Andreessen Horowitz prefers founder CEOs, and how to become one; whether you should sell your company, and how to do it.\n\nFilled with Horowitz\'s trademark humor and straight talk, and drawing from his personal and often humbling experiences, The Hard Thing About Hard Things is invaluable for veteran entrepreneurs as well as those aspiring to their own new ventures.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"11299228895762608843\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_18176747').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_18176747').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_18176747').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_18176747').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_69571"> <a href="/book/show/69571.Rich_Dad_Poor_Dad"><img alt="Rich Dad, Poor Dad" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388211242l/69571.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_69571'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/69571.Rich_Dad_Poor_Dad?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Rich Dad, Poor Dad<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/600.Robert_T_Kiyosaki\">Robert T.

If you\'re looking for a book like that, put this one back on the shelf.Rework shows you a better, faster, easier way to succeed in business. Read it and you\'ll know why plans are actually harmful, why you don\'t need outside investors, and why you\'re better off ignoring the competition. The truth is, you need less than you think. You don\'t need to be a workaholic. You don\'t need to staff up. You don\'t need to waste time on paperwork or meetings. You don\'t even need an office. Those are all just excuses. What you really need to do is stop talking and start working. This book shows you the way. You\'ll learn how to be more productive, how to get exposure without breaking the bank, and tons more counterintuitive ideas that will inspire and provoke you.With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who’s ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs they hate, victims of "downsizing," and artists who don’t want to starve anymore will all find valuable guidance in these pages.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"17187198423351919245\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_6732019').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_6732019').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_6732019').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_6732019').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_81948"> <a href="/book/show/81948.The_E_myth_Revisited"><img alt="The E-myth Revisited" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1435673032l/81948._SY475_.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_81948'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/81948.The_E_myth_Revisited?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">The E-myth Revisited<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/3416.Michael_E_Gerber\">Michael E.

Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed bestseller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"16009567323315191538\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_2612').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_2612').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_2612').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_2612').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_27220736"> <a href="/book/show/27220736-shoe-dog"><img alt="Shoe Dog: A Memoir by the Creator of Nike" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1457284880l/27220736.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_27220736'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27220736-shoe-dog?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Shoe Dog: A Memoir by the Creator of Nike<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/3319233.Phil_Knight\">Phil Knight<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.47 avg rating — 335,393 ratings<\/span> — published 2016\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer6808208658477154771\">In this candid and riveting memoir, for the first time ever, Nike founder and CEO Phil Knight shares the inside story of the company’s early days as an intrepid start-up and its evolution into one of the world’s most iconic, game-changing, and profitable brands.In 1962, fresh out of business school,<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText6808208658477154771\" style=\"display:none\">In this candid and riveting memoir, for the first time ever, Nike founder and CEO Phil Knight shares the inside story of the company’s early days as an intrepid start-up and its evolution into one of the world’s most iconic, game-changing, and profitable brands.In 1962, fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed \$50 from his father and created a company with a simple mission: import high-quality, low-cost athletic shoes from Japan. Selling the shoes from the trunk of his lime green Plymouth Valiant, Knight grossed \$8,000 his first year. Today, Nike’s annual sales top \$30 billion. In an age of startups, Nike is the ne plus ultra of all startups, and the swoosh has become a revolutionary, globe-spanning icon, one of the most ubiquitous and recognizable symbols in the world today.But Knight, the man behind the swoosh, has always remained a mystery. Now, for the first time, in a memoir that is candid, humble, gutsy, and wry, he tells his story, beginning with his crossroads moment. At 24, after backpacking around the world, he decided to take the unconventional path, to start his own business—a business that would be dynamic, different.Knight details the many risks and daunting setbacks that stood between him and his dream—along with his early triumphs. Above all, he recalls the formative relationships with his first partners and employees, a ragtag group of misfits and seekers who became a tight-knit band of brothers. Together, harnessing the transcendent power of a shared mission, and a deep belief in the spirit of sport, they built a brand that changed everything.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"6808208658477154771\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'leftMiddle', hook: { tip: 'leftMiddle', target: 'rightMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_27220736').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_27220736').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_27220736').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_27220736').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="leftAlignedImage bookBox"> <div class="coverWrapper" id="bookCover443234_3228917"> <a href="/book/show/3228917-outliers"><img alt="Outliers: The Story of Success" title="" width="115" class="bookImage" src="https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1344266315l/3228917.jpg" /></a> </div> <script> //<![CDATA[ var newTip = new Tip($('bookCover443234_3228917'), "\n\n <h2><a class=\"readable bookTitle\" href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3228917-outliers?from_choice=false&from_home_module=false\">Outliers: The Story of Success<\/a><\/h2>\n\n <div>\n by <a class=\"authorName\" href=\"/author/show/1439.Malcolm_Gladwell\">Malcolm Gladwell<\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"smallText uitext darkGreyText\">\n <span class=\"minirating\"><span class=\"stars staticStars notranslate\"><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p10\"><\/span><span size=\"12x12\" class=\"staticStar p3\"><\/span><\/span> 4.19 avg rating — 827,846 ratings<\/span> — published 2008\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"addBookTipDescription\">\n \n<span id=\"freeTextContainer4675721290233340529\">Learn what sets high achievers apart — from Bill Gates to the Beatles — in this #1 bestseller from "a singular talent" (New York Times Book Review).\n\nIn this stunning book, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"—the best and the brightest, the most famou<\/span>\n <span id=\"freeText4675721290233340529\" style=\"display:none\">Learn what sets high achievers apart — from Bill Gates to the Beatles — in this #1 bestseller from "a singular talent" (New York Times Book Review).\n\nIn this stunning book, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"—the best and the brightest, the most famous and the most successful. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different?\n\nHis answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Along the way he explains the secrets of software billionaires, what it takes to be a great soccer player, why Asians are good at math, and what made the Beatles the greatest rock band.\n\nBrilliant and entertaining, Outliers is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.<\/span>\n <a data-text-id=\"4675721290233340529\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"swapContent(\$(this));; return false;\">...more<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n", { style: 'addbook', stem: 'rightMiddle', hook: { tip: 'rightMiddle', target: 'leftMiddle' }, hideOn: false, width: 400, hideAfter: 0.05, delay: 0.35 }); $('bookCover443234_3228917').observe('prototip:shown', function() { if (this.up('#box')) { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: $('box').getStyle('z-index')})}); } else { $$('div.prototip').each(function(i){i.setStyle({zIndex: 6000})}); } }); newTip['wrapper'].addClassName('prototipAllowOverflow'); $('bookCover443234_3228917').observe('prototip:shown', function () { $$('div.prototip').each(function (e) { if ($('bookCover443234_3228917').hasClassName('ignored')) { e.setStyle({'display': 'none'}); return; } e.setStyle({'overflow': 'visible'}); }); }); $('bookCover443234_3228917').observe('prototip:hidden', function () { $$('span.elementTwo').each(function (e) { if (e.getStyle('display') !== 'none') { var lessLink = e.next(); swapContent(lessLink); } }); }); //]]> </script> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="clear"></div> <div class="moreLink"> <a class="actionLink" href="/shelf/show/business">More business books...</a> </div> <div class="clear"></div></div></div><div class="bigBoxBottom"></div></div> </div> <div class="rightContainer"> <div data-react-class="ReactComponents.GoogleBannerAd" data-react-props="{"adId":"","className":"googleBannerAd--mediumRectangle"}"></div> <div data-react-class="ReactComponents.GoogleFeaturedContentModule" data-react-props="{"adId":"","trackingOptions":{"enableTracking":true,"adId":""},"isMobile":false,"isInline":false,"hasBottomBorder":false}"></div> <br> <div class=" clearFloats bigBox"><div class="h2Container gradientHeaderContainer"><h2 class="brownBackground">Related Genres</h2></div><div class="bigBoxBody"><div class="bigBoxContent containerWithHeaderContent"> <div class="left" style="width: 50%"> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/non-fiction">Nonfiction</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/economics">Economics</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/finance">Finance</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/money">Money</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/personal-finance">Personal Finance</a><br> </div> <div class="left" style="width: 50%"> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/accounting">Accounting</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/money-management">Money Management</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/financial-management">Financial Management</a><br> <a class="gr-hyperlink" href="/genres/consumer-economics">Consumer Economics</a><br> </div> <div class="clear"></div></div></div><div class="bigBoxBottom"></div></div> <div data-react-class="ReactComponents.GoogleBannerAd" data-react-props="{"adId":"","className":"googleBannerAd--mediumRectangle"}"></div> <div data-react-class="ReactComponents.NewsPreview" data-react-props="{"sectionHeader":"Related News","isMobile":false,"isBookPage":false,"imageOnLeft":true,"showLikesComments":false,"newsItems":[{"newsUrl":"https://www.goodreads.com/blog/show/2753-a-silicon-valley-legend-s-top-books-for-entrepreneurs?ref=genres-show","excerpt":"\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\nBen Horowitz is a cofounder and general partner at the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz.
