I’m reading The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande.
Was recommended by someone in my online book group and I thought it was gonna be a ‘how to organise your tasks’ type of book but there are anecdotes of the author’s own experience to the importance of the checklist. He’s a practicing surgeon and discovered that simple task gets overlooked because of the urgency of the situation in midst of the bustle of other patients and colleagues. |

Very easy to immerse oneself. Easy to read and amazing writing. I enjoyed it very much. Now I am busy reading fanfictions until I get bored of them, then will move to more published books! This post has been edited by miyakochan89: Jun 20 2019, 09:15 AM |

Just finished reading Flow by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Genre: Psychology 5/5 would definitely read again. If you have experienced flow before, and im pretty sure you have, this at least gives it a groundwork on how to be in the state, and how to stay in the state. Very well read author based on his notes at the end Currently reading The Self Acceptance Project Genre: Self Help Using scribd and actual books. Prefer books but scribd gives access to a lot of titles that i dont own so it gets its share of usage time |
