Review
This is another book of pragmatic advice along the same lines as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, The 4-Hour Work Week, and Atomic Habits
Bernard Roth is a self-proclaimed father of “design thinking”, which I find a bit pretentious.
From the website for this book:
- Why using reasons (excuses), even legitimate ones, to explain one’s behavior is self-defeating
- How to change your self-image into one of a doer and achiever
- How subtle language changes can resolve existential dilemmas and barriers to action
- How to build resiliency by reinforcing what you do rather than what you accomplish
- How to be open to learning from your own experience and from those around you
- How to solve difficult personal and professional problems
