Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy.

Not about Joy
Revisado: 08-12-24
This book is not about Joy. It’s about the way a certain company works and is only extremely loosely tired to the concept of Joy.

David Mamet went to Hollywood on top—a super successful playwright summoned west in 1980 to write a vehicle for Jack Nicholson. He arrived just in time to meet the luminaries of old Hollywood and revel in the friendship of giants like Paul Newman, Mike Nichols, Bob Evans, and Sue Mengers. Over the next forty years, Mamet wrote dozens of scripts, was fired off dozens of movies, and directed eleven himself. In Everywhere an Oink Oink, he revels of the taut and gag-filled professionalism of the film set.

Hilarious, fast, and informative
Revisado: 07-17-24
If you don’t quite “get” Mamet, maybe don’t start here, but if you do this is an absolute feast. Every line has been cut and polished to such a shine that it’s like having a brilliant incisive long-form essay squeezed into every last sentence. If boxing were like writing this would be a punch in the mouth.

Think and Grow Rich is the number-one inspirational and motivational classic for individuals who are interested in furthering their lives and reaching their goals by learning from important figures in history. The text read in this audiobook is the original 1937 edition written by Napoleon Hill and inspired by Andrew Carnegie - and while it has often been reproduced, no updated version has ever been able to compete with the original.

At first I thought that this was a pretty good book and I was understanding all the hype surrounding it, but then it went right off the rails into crazy town.

If you're like most entrepreneurs, you started your company so you could be your own boss, make the money you deserve, and live life on your own terms. In reality, you're bogged down in the daily grind, constantly putting out fires, answering an endless stream of questions, and continually hunting for cash.

Kinda obvious. It definitely recommends hiring other people to do your tasks for your business but it doesn’t say how to do it if you don’t have the money to hire other people.

Just a long essay on what an introvert is
Revisado: 04-21-24
Not very deep. Does not live up to the title and is more just a book that seeks to define what an introvert IS more than anything else. If you already know what an internet is, you do not need to read this book.

All her life, Spensa has dreamed of becoming a pilot. Of proving she's a hero like her father. She made it to the sky, but the truths she learned about her father were crushing. The rumors of his cowardice are true - he deserted his flight during battle against the Krell. Worse, though, he turned against his team and attacked them.

Expands and adds to the original. Different but still good. A worthy sequel to the first book in the series.

Creativity, Inc. is a manual for anyone who strives for originality and the first-ever all-access trip into the nerve center of Pixar Animation - into the meetings, postmortems, and “Braintrust” sessions where some of the most successful films in history are made. It is, at heart, a book about creativity - but it is also, as Pixar cofounder and president Ed Catmull writes, “an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible”.

I’m sure people ate this up when Pixar could do no wrong but with their current slump it’s hard to ignore how some of the policies in this book might’ve lead to their current situation.

We 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 distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

Too generic
Revisado: 02-28-24
Follows the “random story” style of personal development. Stories are not necessarily bad but they’re usually pretty inefficient because there’s so much time wasted in exposition and set up. For example Every chapter has to reintroduce a new hero.
Barely anything concrete.
Not a huge fan of the full cast thingy
Kinda shallow. Could’ve been a thread on Twitter. Nothing “Hidden” about the advice contained here.
Really only nine pieces of advice surrounded by seven hours of packaging.
One of the chapters is about being ok with good enough and that’s probably the biggest flaw with this book. There’s a thousand other books that are good enough. This book needed to aim for great enough.

If God is good and all-powerful, why doesn't He put a stop to the evil in this world? Christians and non-Christians alike struggle with the concept of a loving God who allows widespread suffering in this life and never-ending punishment in hell.
