Sunday reading list! 50…that’s on average how many non-fiction books I read every year… 📚 Yep, I'm a nerd! 🤓 …I need to add more fiction to my repertoire but I’m eternally curious and I love learning and so I often come across non-fiction books that I’m eager to dig into. Here are 10 books on 'systems-thinking' that I’d highly recommend (in no particular order): 1️⃣ Designing Regenerative Cultures, Daniel Christian Wahl 2️⃣ Emergent Strategy, adrienne maree brown 3️⃣ Limits and Beyond: 50 years on from The Limits to Growth, what did we learn and what's next?, Ugo Bardi and Carlos Alvarez Pereira 4️⃣ Education in a Time Between Worlds, Zachary Stein 5️⃣ The Collapse of Complex Societies, Joseph Tainter 6️⃣ Thinking in Systems, Donella Meadows 7️⃣ The Web of Life, Fritjof Capra 8️⃣ Small Arcs of Larger Circles, Nora Bateson 9️⃣ Combining, Nora Bateson 🔟 The Web of Meaning, Jeremy Lent Some of these may not seem like obvious “systems-thinking” books, trust me, this collection will give you a well-rounded introduction to how to think systematically. I say “introduction” not because these books are basic (they’re not!) but because systems thinking is a practice…it’s an orientation backed by a deep intuition in the interdependency of life. Enjoy! ❓ What books would you add to the list? My TBR is long but I always enjoy adding recommendations! #booksaddict #readingisfundamental #bookclub #readinglist Photo Credit: Toa Heftiba

Besides the fact that these kinds of summer lists provide you with some great reads for your summer break, it also is quite an interesting view on what the great and good of the corporate world (as far as McKinsey is concerned) are reading. You also take these lists a bit serious because these people are very serious people and they have very limited time on their hands to spend on discretionary activities. So if they are indeed spending time on reading books, then what kinds of books? why do you think they are reading these genres? quite an interesting exercise. my wish list has now got 4 books from this list :) and for this, I am totally blaming Just Mohit for this sheer imposition! that's my excuse and I am sticking with it.

Today I start the week with talking about "5 Key Takeaways I Got from the “Manifest” Book by Roxie Nafousi" - Penguin Publishing Group Human can think 60,000 stuffs per day. But apparently, the 80% are mostly negative and around 90% are repetitive thoughts. In order to change our habit to not think the negative things repetitively, a constant practice is needed, by continuously replacing our negative to encouraging, constructive thoughts.

🎨 Have you ever felt like you were not a creative person? Why others can be so 'creative' while others don't have this 'gift'. Building a Second Brain by Tiago Forte is a great book to demystify this idea and bring back the power of creativity to everyone. These are my thoughts on why Building a Second Brain is so important for the creative process and clear, unclotted thinking.

I received a surprise in the mail yesterday! Benjamin Hardy, PhD new book "10x is easier than 2x" ☺️ Growth is my #1 goal, and this is going to be a great read. The 10x minset isn't about doing 10 times more work, its a counterintuitive process that creates exponential growth. It's a pleasure working with Alexandrina Mic-Podar, thanks for this tool to further my growth. #10xgrowth #readingbooks #secondchances
