Story
We all have something we want to change about ourselves. But whether it's quitting smoking, losing weight, or breaking some common bad habit or negative behavior pattern, we feel a sense of failure when we don’t succeed. This often sets off a cascade of negative feelings and discouragement, making it even harder to change. The voice in our head tells us: Why bother.

Great insights with meaningful anecdotes that aren’t insufferable, as most are in this genre. Change is possible, but thinking differently about the nuances of how is arguably imperative.

Hard religious turn, midway. Uh, nope.

Lost me at must have a “higher power” and “have to believe in something.” Moreover, seems Holiday is milking topic of stoicism without adding value to the topic. He’s probably said enough about stoicism. You either get it or you don’t.

Story
Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.
Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle - and people in general - has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands.

Best Listen in a While ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very Entertaining book with an equally outstanding narration. Some great hidden gems inside, including the concept of the brain “discounting” and how our human nature explains so much about our current circumstances. Also some great insights into the inner workings of Microsoft.

Story
Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.

Great book. Well narrated and replete with sensible advice and techniques. Particularly like that it’s heavy on content and light on anecdotes.
