3.0

Finally finished this full-packed book. It contains not only explanations but also exercises to achieve the goal to be a Productivity Ninja.

Being productive is like a goal in this era. As a millenials, borrowing Anne Helen Petersen's term, I am included in "The Burnout Generation". Non stop stimulation from social media, labels & stigmas pasted on us, make me want to achieve higher and higher but in limited capacity. Suffering & struggling is normalized. Deep inside, I know there's something wrong with this paradigm.

Reading this book, taught me one important point: there's always boss mode and worker mode in our mind. Monkey & elephant. The little monkey represents our conscious mind while elephant is the subconscious mind. The monkey is too small to steer elephant, and elephant many times not communicate well about the journey. We need to make them works together peacefully.

If you're interested in productivity, then I recommend you to pick this book. But it's quite rigid in the exercise part and the table of contents is not helpful at all. So you better take your time in reading, take a note the page number if you met interesting part & do the exercise in the book by your own pace to make it more enjoyable to read.
