How to Think More Effectively: A guide to greater productivity, insight and creativity

It was joyous to be able to connect with some of the thoughts that has been studied by this author, thoughts and perspectives that I’ve had myself. This book challenged me to take an honest look at my behavior and tendencies which definitely sparked a change in my thought process in general. Im glad that I finished this book. 10/10

Gives you a lot of mental models to work and understand the different ways our brain works. Some of the exercises are exercises you should practice on a periodic basis to always keep your mind in check and healthily curious, thinking, and productive.

I bought it on a whim and was immensely happy at my choice. The School of Life does not disappoint. This book is extremely helpful, fun (in that it has very great ideas beautifully commentated on) and enlightening.

You can’t go wrong with Alain and this book is really short but GREAT

A concise book on thinking clearly and fruitfully. A must read for everyone who would like to learn about it.

Me parece muy importante este punto de vista para repensar lo humano dentro de una empresa

I really like these booklets from the school of life on all essential themes (struggles) of life... They tackle really hard concepts yet with humour and great wisdom present them in a very simple and easy to understand manner. This particular book challenged me quite a bit because "effective" is my struggle (insight and creativity not so much 😊).

C'est une excellente initiation à la stratégie en général, on nous y explique qu'aucun d'entre nous ne se pose les bonnes questions.Par exemple avant d'aborder un sujet ou un travail, quelques questions très simples nous aideraient à être bien plus efficaces et productifs :A quoi ça sert ?Quel est le but ?Si je fais çà ça me mène ou dans 10 ans ?etc...Ensuite on y parle aussi de créativité, de trucs et astuces qui marchent pour mieux réfléchir, de Proust ...C'est court et bien foutu, et très pertinent, du coup je me suis arrêté de travailler ... pour mieux me préparer !

Sehr interessantes Buch! ich denke es ist nicht nur interessant für das kreative Arbeiten sondern ein genereller Ansatz für alle produktiven Denkansätze.

Insightful interesting and thought provoking. Something that should be read multiple times. Loved it and will be going back to reflect on it many times I expect.
