Stop worrying about what you feel like doing (and what the world owes you) and instead, start creating something meaningful and then give it to the world. Cal really delivers with this one.
Stop worrying about what you feel like doing (and what the world owes you) and instead, start creating something meaningful and then give it to the world. Cal really delivers with this one. - praise for SO GOOD THEY CAN’T IGNORE YOU
Cal Newport ably demonstrates how the quest for ‘passion’ can corrode job satisfaction. If all he accomplished with this book was to turn conventional wisdom on its head, that would be interesting enough. But he goes further-offering advice and examples that will help you bypass the disillusionment and get right to work building skills that matter. - praise for SO GOOD THEY CAN’T IGNORE YOUWith practical advice backed up by proven examples, SO GOOD THEY CAN’T IGNORE YOU is both an unconventional and fresh take on the area of work and lifestyle design. An absolute must-read. - Lifehack.orgAbout The Author
