1. Not often

2. Not sure if the tagged counts as self-help exactly but I did learn a lot.

3. I think it depends on the book and what you expect to get out of it.

BookmarkTavern That‘s a really good point on three. Thank you for posting! 4y

so-so

I liked the parts that talked about actual rocket science and team problem solving more than about individual heads of companies, particularly worker-unfriendly companies such as Amazon and Tesla. This is likely a personal view more than the book‘s fault, so your mileage may vary.

“The journey cannot end once the mission is accomplished.”
So many ideas wrapped in excellent writing. A free workbook download does a great job of summarizing and activating too.

When it comes to creating long-lasting change, there are no hacks or silver bullets. You‘ll need to use a lot of lead bullets instead.

I finished Think Like A Rocket Scientist a few days ago but forgot to review it.

I found myself underlining, starring, & notating so much! Varol provides realistic strategies & advice on how to reframe your thinking to obtain different outcomes. He uses examples from numerous industries, not just rocket science.

One of the best nonfiction help books I‘ve ever read. This will definitely be a book I go back to.

And my first Aug #bookspin bingo!

“When we prefer the seeming stability of stories to the messy reality of uncertainty, facts become dispensable and misinformation thrives. Fake news is not a modern phenomenon.”

Only 26 pages in and already underlining and take notes.

#Ispy a book with a light blue cover that @julesG tasked me to find.

And #Ispy a book with a purple cover that @IamIamIam tasked me to find.

Now I challenge @SumisBooks @LibrarianRyan @Klou @RachelO @Crazeedi (and anyone else who wants to play) to find a book with an orange cover.

IamIamIam Awesome! Thanks for playing! 5y

julesG Very interesting book in light blue. I'll stack it. As for Anna *sigh*, it was a struggle. 5y

Klou Thanks for the tag, I have just done one of these but I'll gladly do it again! 5y

wanderinglynn @julesG I haven‘t read Anna K yet. I keep putting it off. 5y

julesG I've yet to find a novel by one of the Russian classics that I like. It's mainly the style in which those novels are written that I can't stand. Next in line are books by Scandinavian authors, I even struggled with some of Astrid Lindgren's books. 5y
