Some parts are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, some parts are ⭐️. Apparently you can fight stress by “becoming Spanish" (my summary) —and you should do so! Felt good: —Tests —Priority mindmaps —Specific, actionable stress control techniques —Desk yoga Felt bad: —WASP dehumanisation and entitlement. It hurts to read at times. —The heteropatriarchy of the thing at times as well. "I started speaking with my wife about my work —and she gave me valuable input!" #DUH Looked ugly: —"You can't have it all" (maybe you can sequential Some parts are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, some parts are ⭐️.

Really. —I'm sorry but I cringe at how unproductive some readers are supposed to be. I mean, WTF? But that might be years of me trying to make a lot with a little. This might be an idea for a post…

Another great compilation of magazine articles, blog posts, and one-offs from HBR. Most of these pieces are "favorites", but notable reads were: "Are You Working Too Hard?" "Overloaded Circuits: Why Smart People Underperform" "No, You Can't Have It All" "Positive Intelligence" Another great compilation of magazine articles, blog posts, and one-offs from HBR.

Neměla jsem moc vysoká očekávání, pár knížek podobného typu jsem přečetla a byly většinou průměrné, nijak speciální. Tahle byla celkem fajn. Některé části téhle knížky byly top, jiné slabší a něco mi přišlo jako úplná blbost. Ale overall jsem si z toho něco vzala a k "Bird by bird" se budu při stresu v práci stoprocentně vracet. :) Neměla jsem moc vysoká očekávání, pár knížek podobného typu jsem přečetla a byly většinou průměrné, nijak speciální.

This book collected many different essays on the topic of Stress, in particular stress at work. I thought there was a lot of good information, but a lot of it is stuff we all know; we just need to apply it.

Wow. Buku ini salah satu buku self help paling keren (kalau bukan bener-bener yang terkeren) buat saya. Yang membuatnya luar biasa adalah: terutama, pembahasannya yang singkat, padat, to the point, sehingga satu buku yang tebalnya sedang ini isinya manfaat semua. Plus, buku ini cocok dibaca oleh semua orang yang ribet multitasking di berbagai bidang yang melelahkan, dan, endingnya, buku ini memberi pembelajaran untuk menjadi manusia seutuhnya dan lepas dari jerat pekerjaan. THIS BOOK IS AWESOME!

Quick read and contains many useful ideas about managing stress. I recognized some ideas from before and found some new insights. Well worth reading for anyone who works in an office environment with occasional stress and frustration, which is often the case in today's high paced world. Learning to thrive under pressure, even if only a little better, is a most valuable investment and this book will surely help most people with that.
