Story
Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy.

Story
You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.

Story
This passionate expertise manifesto is intended to elevate the impact of advisors who sell insight as entrepreneurs. Three foundational chapters form the basis of the entire audiobook: Experts develop insight by isolating patterns in data; they convert those insights to wealth by crafting a unique positioning for which few available substitutes exist; and their confidence grows as the marketplace embraces their application of expertise. The next 15 chapters - building on that foundation - each answer a single question.

The "Your Communication Skills Suck" book
This book is a much-needed slap to the face. Why it Matters: Technology has turned communicating on its head. Nobody has time for excessive wordy verbosity or a grandelinquent stream of orthographically sound prose. Fed-up with inboxes full of useless junk, we all want brief, simple, meaningful messages. This book makes the case with clear examples and instructions. If you can get past the start, which pulls no punches, it will equip you with a new messaging arsenal.
Bottom-Line: Read this book if you think nobody is listening and you're ready for some bitter medicine.

Contenu du livre très simpliste
Lecture rapide (3h), mais le contenu est léger. Soyez concis, utiliser des mots simples, favoriser les bullet points.
Ne soyez pas un robot.
Voilà.
Je recommande si vous avez aucune experience en communication, mais sinon c’est la base,
