I'm 40% through. I like the book. Jordan is pretty much on point and I'm currently trying stuff out. We'll see how it goes. Started reading it a few days ago.

anton_rich is 10% done with The Practice: Shipping Creative Work
I just finished the little chapter about juggling. I'm a juggler myself and taught a few people to juggle as well. I have also used different technique to teach juggling. The approach Seth suggests is different and I'm eager to try it. We'll see if it will work better. However, I would agree with his mindset that being outcomes focused does not usually play out well for us.

I'm almost 10% through the book. Already have some insightful highlights and the feeling of continuing the book is strong. That's a good sign.

anton_rich is 45% done with Relentless: From Good to Great to Unstoppable (Tim Grover Winning Series)
I'm almost half way through. There is a moment in the book where Tim goes into explaining a Cleaner's mentality and that is to act, to execute and ignore thinking which gets you into the Zone....But what about fields where thinking is the execution? Programming for example is such field. You have problem, what are you just gonna execute the solution? You gotta first think about the solution.

anton_rich is on page 153 of 288 of Grammar to Go: How It Works and How to Use It
I have extensive enjoy the first part of the book. The part where the sentence diagramming was explained. I took a lot of notes did around 99 percent of the tasks.

However the second part of the book is focused on punctuation. That's not my focus at the moment. So I'm going to put a pin on that book right now.

Actually, I'm not going to abandon it. I'm just going to read it without taking notes.

anton_rich is 75% done with The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable
Currently on chapter Another Few Barbells.

I'm so excited to read. Because in this chapter the author describes his post publishing experience of reading some fitness guys on the effects of randomness on the human body.

I think this chapter is crucially important.

anton_rich is starting Teaching Online: A Practical Guide
I liked the introduction of the book. But for some reason I thought this book is about teaching English online. Because that's not the case, I'm probably going to read this book at a very slow pace. Instead I'm gonna go and look for books about teaching English online.

anton_rich is finished with Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones
Even though it is not my first book about habits, I found a lot of useful and applicable advice. Unlike the power of habit, I think this one is simpler and systematized in a better way.

anton_rich is 4% done with Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds
So I went ahead and read some negative comments on Amazon. So far the negativity was related to the language of the book. A lot of swearing they were saying. So would do you expect from a guy who live like that? He doesn't sugar coat his experience and I like his candor.

Mr. Meuersault is in the court and it looks like a comedy.

It striking how the book is simple and yet I want to finish it.

The character is a peculiar man who is being asked about his opinion who doesn't really have strong opinions. He almost always says yes, but also firmly says no.

That intrigues me...
