How to identify better judges:

"Three things matter. Judgements are both less noisy and less biased when those who make them are well trained, are more intelligent, and have the right cognitive style....good judgements depend on what you know, how well you think, and how you think. Good judges tend to be experienced and smart, but they also tend to be actively open-minded & willing to learn from new information."

A really practical starting point if your company is using EOS. If not then it makes a really good case for why businesses should be using EOS. I enjoyed the main points not getting bogged down in jargon. Not a long read and sets you up well for the next phase.

For anyone feeling alone, no one understands the deep depression you're trying to just survive another day with, or even the powerful prison that anxiety has locked you away in this book will give you hope, light, and encouragement. Haig really knocks it out of the park describing the #mentalhealth struggles and their manifestations. For anyone suffering in silence please get help. The Stigma is a LIE!! You are worth saving.

Following up Deep Work with this book which was also assigned to me at my job.

#nonfiction #business #bestseller

This book is a solid work on putting more value on your time and spending it on projects, goals, etc. that really matter and reducing the time spent on fluff. It's geared towards knowledge workers (professors, marketing reps, etc.) but has plenty of applications for any walk of life. A primary goal of Newport is to help his readers that they're more capable of effective time management than we feel like.

Adding this to my completed list!

No particular order I'm reading these. Just grabbing the next one in the box and getting through them. A lot of fun.

I love a good TinTin book! Been years since I've read them and now I found a large collection of them that I'll be reading through.

This is a great study into the Holy Spirit. Ryrie addresses so many facets of the Holy Spirit. If you have questions or are simply curious about the Holy Spirit then this book is a really good resource from a really good teacher.

Love the fact I've been assigned to read this book for work!

A really solid book! Overall this book really forces you to evaluate your thought process and why you believe what you believe.
The authors focus on a few narrow topics that are pretty controversial and spark highly emotional responses. But their principles apply to pretty much every area of life. Are you convinced of a mindset based off heuristics or based off quantitative data? Be aware of the why behind your life choices

The true victims of conspiracy theories are those that suffer from the lack of benefits from the very thing that could save them but is demonized by those that are choosing to ignore the factual evidence.

#nonfiction #conspiracytheories

A really fascinating look at the development of societies across the globe and why certain areas ended up with certain staples while other areas remained primitive for decades.
It is a bit dry and academic so if you can get past those elements then you will have a nice perspective of human development.

This is a great little book for #sports trivia fans. It's a fascinating look at a variety of sports. I'd recommend reading with a group of sports friends.

"The main focus of this book is not to argue back and forth about vaccinations, GMOs, or nuclear power but rather to present a framework to understand why people deny scientific evidence and how this situation can be improved."

"What then causes smart people to make decisions and adopt positions that have no factual basis? That is the question with which this book wrestles."

Adding this to my #TBR stack.

Fun Fact: Richard Attenborough was in the London production in 1952!

I'm FINALLY getting around to reading this enduring play. I shockingly know nothing about this Christie production so I'm exited to go into The Mousetrap completely blind. Truly the queen of mystery.

"Do not overwrite. Rich, ornate prose is hard to digest, generally unwholesome, and sometimes nauseating."

⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was a solid little mystery. Nothing super thrilling but didn't drag either. For a Miss Marple mystery it doesn't really feature her much until the end. I'm not disappointed I read this story but it's not on my re-read list either. I say read it but don't expect to be blown away.

A solid #AgathaChristie #mystery! She of course drops hints all along the way then clearly ties them up neatly at the very end.
Just the right length and set perfectly in a small town.

It's National Read A Book Day!! 📚 I wrapped up this book just in time to review it for today's holiday. I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The stories are pretty easy to follow and you are not kept in the dark about much so it's nice to be able to follow along with the action which is pretty fast paced. If you're looking for a who-done-it then you'll need to turn elsewhere.
I plan to read more of Lupin now that I've started! On to Miss Marple! #mystery #classy

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A beautiful work that results in provoking deep thought about the ideas that drove societies, key historical figures, and governments through time. Herman invites the reader to take stock of what ideas and world views are driving your daily decisions."

This book is an easy read. Marx clearly lays out the call to follow Jesus with your life and fight for what God commands. It's an encouraging look at what happens to someone's life that's surrendered to following God. At times the macho feels a bit much but that's the price of making the point that we often let weakness and fear run our lives.

If you find philosophy boring I encourage you to read about Peter Abelard's steamy love affair and the tragic conclusion. It's pretty wild. #nonfiction #history #philosophy

First review in a long time. I finally finished this trilogy! It was a really insightful look into the life of an incredibly interesting man who died too soon. Highly recommend if you're interested in Teddy. I will admit it did drag a bit at the end.

I picked this book up at the library on a whim. It turned out to be so good I bought a copy. It's now required reading for our family. The author does such a good job of presenting truth in a practical way to help equip parents to do their job.
