Welcome to Litsy!

This is about timing. Best, most productive times of the day. Why it's better not to graduate during a recession (😂 duh) etc. I found it very interesting. It also justified my inability to get things done in the afternoon when I get up at 5. Explained? Whatever.

A great read on maximizing your life by understanding timing and using time to your advantage. Highly recommend for those that are looking to be more productive at work and home, tapping into your creativity at the right time and how timing of choices can impact your life.

"Taken together, all of these studies suggest that the path to a life of meaning and significance isn't to "live in the moment" as so many spiritual gurus have advised. It is to integrate our perspectives on time into a coherent whole, one that helps us comprehend who we are and why we're here."

Some useful and practical ideas in this book. Knowing WHEN to do something is just as important as knowing how to.

The science of perfect timing may sound dull, but between fun examples and great narration, this is an easy pick.

Pink breaks down the best time of day to brainstorm, the best year to leave your job, why more recess leads to better test scores, and why so darn many people run marathons when they‘re 29, 39, or 49. My favorite example showed why being down 1 point at the half can be more advantageous than the lead. Interesting stuff! 4⭐️ #audiobook

Eh. Shortish audiobook. She me interesting info packed into this book, but I feel like lots of this info is out there in other books and articles. #audiobook

A short read/listen. Really interesting stuff about timing and how you can apply the findings to your life. Easy to follow and lively writing. One critique I had was that it was white-collar oriented. #libby

A few truths with lots of examples. Having already read these examples in many other books, I was bored. If you haven‘t read a lot on the topic, this is a good overview with a pleasant presentation.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Timing is everything. With so much going in life, we‘re often more concerned with “what” rather than “when.” This was an amusing, quick read. I‘m not sure it all holds merit. I think I‘d wake up from a “nappuchino” as bitchy as ever. 😆 But, I think in terms of school timing, this book is spot on. I also agree with the motivational qualities of beginnings and endings. Though-provoking stuff.

I liked this and will now be taking “nappicinos” ! Timing is everything and here is the science behind it! 5.5 hours on audio read by Pink himself. Learn the optimal time to do most everything and then slow down and take a nap🤣☺️

Sunday funday. Cooking up a storm. Finishing off this book... Then binge eating snacks on the couch and watching GoT! ⚔️🐲🔥
