À propos de cet audio

 "I loved this profound, practical, and generous book." —Oliver Burkeman

A transformative guide to rethinking our approach to goals, creativity, and life itself from a neuroscientist and entrepreneur, and the creator of the popular Ness Labs newsletter

Life isn’t linear, and yet we constantly try to mold it around linear goals: four-year college degrees, ten-year career plans, thirty-year mortgages. What if instead we approached life as a giant playground for experimentation? Based on ancestral philosophy and the latest scientific research, Tiny Experiments provides a desperately needed reframing: Uncertainty can be a state of expanded possibility and a space for metamorphosis.

Neuroscientist and entrepreneur Anne-Laure Le Cunff reveals that all you need is an experimental mindset to turn challenges into self-discovery and doubt into opportunity. Readers will replace the old linear model of success with a circular model of growth in which goals are discovered, pursued, and adapted—not in a vacuum, but in conversation with the larger world.

Throughout the book, you will ask hard questions and design simple yet meaningful experiments to find the answers. You will learn how to break free from the invisible cognitive scripts that shape your life, how to harness the power of imperfection, and how to make smarter decisions when the path forward is unclear.

This is a guide to:
• Discover your true ambitions through conducting tiny personal experiments
• Dismantle harmful beliefs about success that have kept you stuck
• Dare to make decisions true to your own aspirations
• Stop trying to find your purpose and start living instead

Tiny Experiments offers not just practical tools to make sure our most vital work gets done, but a guide to reawakening our curiosity and drive in a noisy, busy, disaffected world, so that we can discover and pursue our most authentic ambitions while making a meaningful contribution.

I was initially intrigued by Le Cunff when my YouTube algorithm recommended her Big Think video called "The 3 Cognitive Scripts that Rule Over Your Life." In retrospect, the video was like a good trailer to a bad movie; while the YouTube video pulls you in, there is little substance to the actual book.

Le Cunff will pique your interest by starting the book, immediately telling you that she quit her dream job at Google, followed by using buzzwords like "neuroscientist." But after finishing the book, I can confirm that the entire thing is little more than a mishmash of trite platitudes stitched together with shallow references to other great books that you'd be much better off reading instead of this title.

I'm honestly not surprised that a book by a Silicon Valley entrepreneur lacks true depth.

Instead of getting ripped off paying for this title, I'll save you time and money by giving you a list of actual good reads where most of Le Cunff's half-baked ideas come from:

1. Moonwalking with Einstein - Joshua Foer
2. Talent is Overrated - Geoffrey Colvin
3. The Antidote - Oliver Burkeman
4. Four Thousand Weeks - Oliver Burkeman
5. Atomic Habits - James Clear
6. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck - Mark Manson
7. Everything is F*cked - Mark Manson
8. The Brain that Changes Itself - Norman Dodge
9. A Simpler Life - The School of Life
10. Goodbye Things - Fumio Sasaki

Underwhelming
