Die Grundidee (der Titel) ist genau richtig, nur leider ist das Buch erstaunlich dünn bei der Ausführung der Idee. Monoton geschrieben und manche Ideen zu banal. Könnte dennoch ein nettes Nachschlagewerk zum Querlesen werden, für die gelegentliche Inspiration.
I think this book does a great job of showing what this genre is all about: it's not about being a more productive worker, it's not about increasing output, it's not about generating shareholder value. This genre is about figuring out the best ways to achieve what you want in life whether that's personal or professional. It's about finding the balance in your life for the things you want to do. I've been following Abdaal's work on YouTube for years and I preordered this book almost right away, I just jive with his personality and that really came across in his writing as well!

This book is such an enjoyable read! The tone is down-to-earth, with plenty of funny and nerdy twists (shoutout to the Anakin Skywalker and Aang mentions). It’s packed with scientific examples and simple “experiments” you can try out.
What I loved most was how it tackled big struggles like lack of motivation and the whole “just be more disciplined” lie. The tips feel doable, and the focus on small changes makes it much easier to take action.
After finishing it, I’m looking at my goals, whether for work, relationships, or personal, in a new way. I’ve started trying out little nudges here and there, and I'm observing the difference like a productivity scientist. Definitely recommend! 🦾

Pretty breezy and engaging. Some things I'll definitely try to put into practice.
