But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions: doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes early, or holding a single short phone call.He calls them atomic habits.In this ground-breaking book, Clears reveals exactly how these minuscule changes can grow into such life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks (the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, or the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone), and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter. Along the way, he tells inspiring stories of Olympic gold medalists, leading CEOs, and distinguished scientists who have used the science of tiny habits to stay productive, motivated, and happy.These small changes will have a revolutionary effect on your career, your relationships, and your life.________________________________A NEW YORK TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'A supremely practical and useful book.'

En av de viktigaste förmågorna är på väg att försvinna. Men här är lösningen.
Djupjobb innebär att arbeta med mentalt krävande uppgifter utan att tappa koncentrationen. Många människor i dag har helt förlorat sin tillgång till detta fokuserade tillstånd kunskapsarbetare och andra kreativa personer ägnar i stället dagarna åt att sitta i öppna kontorslandskap och huka under korselden av mejl och notiser från sociala medier utan att ens förstå att man kan jobba på ett vettigare sätt.
Cal Newport, professor i datavetenskap på ansedda Georgetown University, visar hur du kan bli bättre på ditt jobb, hur du hinner med mer arbete på kortare tid och hur tillfredsställande det är att behärska någonting fullt ut.
Konsten att djupjobba är en superkraft i vår alltmer konkurrensutsatta ekonomi. Deep work: Hur du finner fokus och djupjobbar i en distraherande värld är en blandning av kulturkritik och enkla praktiska råd för den som söker vägledning i en fragmentiserad och distraherande värld. Här ges verktygen för att återigen kunna gå på djupet och en grundkurs i den produktiva digitala minimalism som Newport blivit den mest kände förespråkaren för.

It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out.In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together.

'A goldmine of surprising insights. Makes you smarter with every page' – James Clear, author of Atomic HabitsThe fifth-anniversary edition of the instant Sunday Times bestseller, as featured on Diary of a CEO.The essential guide to improving your performance, and a powerful playbook for success in any field: develop range while everyone around you is rushing to specialize.You may have been taught that success in any field requires early specialization, and 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. If you only dabble or delay, you'll never catch up with those who got a head start. This is completely wrong.In this landmark book, David Epstein shows you that the way to succeed is by sampling widely, gaining a breadth of experiences, taking detours, experimenting relentlessly and juggling many interests.Studying the world's most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors and scientists, Epstein demonstrates how generalists often find their path relatively late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one.Range has challenged the status quo, reshaped career paths, inspired parents and changed lives. Read it to learn how to be more creative, more agile, and more capable of making the connections that your more specialized peers cannot see.‘If you're a generalist who has ever felt overshadowed by your specialist colleagues, this book is for you' – Bill Gates, founder of MicrosoftShortlisted for the Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award'I loved Range' – Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers

The Instant New York Times bestseller‘Masterful’ – Adam Grant'So interesting' – Pandora Sykes‘Wonderful’ – Angela DuckworthAn essential read to become the most creative, productive, and satisfied version of yourself, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Range.We are constantly told to ‘keep our options open’ and ‘think outside the box’ – but what if endless freedom is exactly the problem? Drowning in a dizzying excess of choice often leads to dread, anxiety, and burnout. In Inside the Box, award-winning author David Epstein reveals a powerful truth: to thrive, you don't need more freedom. You need to build your own box.From navigating an uncertain future to building a life, intentional boundaries breed brilliance:Relationships: Couples who consciously commit are more satisfied than those who simply 'keep their options open'.Artificial Intelligence: A lack of advanced microchips forced engineers at DeepSeek into brilliant workarounds, producing a model to rival ChatGPT.Business: General Magic – a tech startup with limitless funding – failed spectacularly because they refused to set internal limits.Science: The periodic table wasn't born from boundless genius, but the strict demands of a textbook deadline.Music: Jazz pianist Keith Jarrett produced the bestselling solo piano album of all time by adapting to a broken piano.Constraints are not obstacles – they are powerful tools we can wield. Weaving gripping storytelling with cognitive science, Inside the Box proves the secret to expanding your potential isn’t chasing endless options. It’s taking back control and choosing the right limits.‘David Epstein's first two books – The Sports Gene and Range – were brilliant, but Inside the Box is his best . . . I won't think about my own work the same way ever again’ – Malcolm Gladwell

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * 5 MILLION COPIES SOLD“Significant...The book is both instructive and surprisingly moving.” —The New York TimesRay Dalio, one of the world’s most successful investors and entrepreneurs, shares the unconventional principles that he’s developed, refined, and used over the past forty years to create unique results in both life and business—and which any person or organization can adopt to help achieve their goals.In 1975, Ray Dalio founded an investment firm, Bridgewater Associates, out of his two-bedroom apartment in New York City. Forty years later, Bridgewater has made more money for its clients than any other hedge fund in history and grown into the fifth most important private company in the United States, according to Fortune magazine. Dalio himself has been named to Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. Along the way, Dalio discovered a set of unique principles that have led to Bridgewater’s exceptionally effective culture, which he describes as “an idea meritocracy that strives to achieve meaningful work and meaningful relationships through radical transparency.” It is these principles, and not anything special about Dalio—who grew up an ordinary kid in a middle-class Long Island neighborhood—that he believes are the reason behind his success. In Principles, Dalio shares what he’s learned over the course of his remarkable career. He argues that life, management, economics, and investing can all be systemized into rules and understood like machines. The book’s hundreds of practical lessons, which are built around his cornerstones of “radical truth” and “radical transparency,” include Dalio laying out the most effective ways for individuals and organizations to make decisions, approach challenges, and build strong teams. He also describes the innovative tools the firm uses to bring an idea meritocracy to life, such as creating “baseball cards” for all employees that distill their strengths and weaknesses, and employing computerized decision-making systems to make believability-weighted decisions. While the book brims with novel ideas for organizations and institutions, Principles also offers a clear, straightforward approach to decision-making that Dalio believes anyone can apply, no matter what they’re seeking to achieve. Here, from a man who has been called both “the Steve Jobs of investing” and “the philosopher king of the financial universe” (CIO magazine), is a rare opportunity to gain proven advice unlike anything you’ll find in the conventional business press.

David Epstein tog en närmare titt på världens ledande idrottsprofiler, konstnärer, artister, uppfinnare och forskare. Hans upptäckt? Att generalisten inte specialisterna har de allra bästa förutsättningarna inom alla samhällets områden, särskilt de som är komplexa och oförutsägbara. Generalister finner ofta sin väg i livet senare och provar många olika intressen utan att fastna i fullt fokus på ett enda. De är mer kreativa, flexibla och förmår se kopplingar och sammanhang som specialisten sällan gör.
Provocerande och övertygande argumenterar Bredd för att vi borde kultivera och upphöja ineffektiviteten. Att bli underkänd på ett prov är ett sätt att lära sig. De som prövar och ger upp tillräckligt många gånger uppnår ofta de riktigt framgångsrika karriärerna. De mest framgångsrika innovatörerna är alltid multidisciplinära genier snarare än ensidigt briljanta. När datorer och AI tar över allt mer av det riktigt avancerade tänkandet är det människor som förmår tänka brett som kommer att lyckas bäst.

So he did the unthinkable: he walked away and decided to do it all differently.Young Money exposes the trap so many twenty-somethings fall into - chasing status, salary and stability without stopping to ask: is this what I actually want? Is this how I want to spend my time?

Have you ever wondered why not? Up to 40% of us secretly believe our jobs probably aren't necessary. In other words: they are bullshit jobs. This book shows why, and what we can do about it.In the early twentieth century, people prophesied that technology would see us all working fifteen-hour weeks and driving flying cars. Instead, something curious happened. Not only have the flying cars not materialised, but average working hours have increased rather than decreased. And now, across the developed world, three-quarters of all jobs are in services, finance or admin: jobs that don't seem to contribute anything to society. In Bullshit Jobs, David Graeber explores how this phenomenon - one more associated with the Soviet Union, but which capitalism was supposed to eliminate - has happened. In doing so, he looks at how, rather than producing anything, work has become an end in itself; the way such work maintains the current broken system of finance capital; and, finally, how we can get out of it. This book is for anyone whose heart has sunk at the sight of a whiteboard, who believes 'workshops' should only be for making things, or who just suspects that there might be a better way to run our world.

In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger shows us that the key to being happier is to stop trying to be “positive” all the time and instead to become better at handling adversity.For decades we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. But those days are over. “Fuck positivity,” Mark Manson says. “Let’s be honest; sometimes things are fucked up and we have to live with it.” For the past few years, Manson—via his wildly popular blog—has been working on correcting our delusional expectations for ourselves and for the world. He now brings his hard-fought wisdom to this groundbreaking book.Manson makes the argument—backed by both academic research and well-timed poop jokes—that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to better stomach lemons. Human beings are flawed and limited—as he writes, “Not everybody can be extraordinary—there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault.” Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. This, he says, is the real source of empowerment. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties—once we stop running from and avoiding, and start confronting painful truths—we can begin to find the courage and confidence we desperately seek.“In life, we have a limited amount of fucks to give. So you must choose your fucks wisely.” Manson brings a much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor. This manifesto is a refreshing slap in the face for all of us so that we can start to lead more contented, grounded lives.
