David Kadavy’s book “Mind Management, Not Time Management,” which challenges traditional productivity systems by focusing on how the mind, not the clock, truly drives results. Kadavy argues that success isn’t about scheduling every minute — it’s about mastering your mental rhythms, energy, and creativity to work smarter and avoid burnout.

By understanding your high-focus, low-focus, and restorative mental states, you can match the right tasks to the right mindset for maximum flow and innovation. The book also offers strategies for beating procrastination, aligning goals with mental capacity, and maintaining creative energy through environment, rest, and routine.

“The Art of Reading Minds,” which breaks down the psychology behind nonverbal communication and influence. Rather than presenting “mind reading” as magic, Fexeus reveals it as a learnable skill rooted in observing unconscious human behavior.

He teaches how to build instant rapport by syncing with someone’s communication style — mirroring body language, tone, and energy — and then subtly guiding conversations through what he calls “opinion aikido.” The book dives deep into the link between sensory impressions (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic) and thinking patterns, even touching on the debated Eye Accessing Cues (EAC) model, which suggests that eye movements can hint at a person’s dominant sense.

Fexeus also explores how to interpret microexpressions, use linguistic cues for persuasion, and create emotional anchors that influence mood and behavior. Ultimately, he emphasizes that mastering these techniques isn’t about manipulation — it’s about developing a deeper understanding of people until it becomes second nature, a level he calls unconscious competence.
