A journey through pages with my book reviews every second Monday

  • Steven Kotler: The Art of Impossible

    Steven Kotler’s The Art of Impossible is a bold and brainy guide to achieving peak performance, blending cutting-edge neuroscience with practical advice. It’s not your average self-help book, it’s a full-on operating manual for the human mind, aimed at helping readers stretch beyond their perceived limits and tackle their own version of the “impossible”. Kotler argues that extraordinary achievement isn’t reserved for the elite few, but is accessible to anyone willing to understand and apply the science behind motivation, learning, creativity, and flow.

    The book is grounded in decades of research and Kotler’s own experience as a performance expert. It’s structured around four key pillars, Motivation, Learning, Creativity, and Flow, each unpacked with clarity and a touch of humour. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, athlete, artist or just someone trying to get through Monday without crying into your cereal, Kotler offers a compelling blueprint for levelling up your game.

About

Are you a passionate reader? So am I!

Here at ‘Books I Like’, I dive into the fascinating worlds of management, social sciences, history, biographies, and travel essays. Basically, if it has pages and words, I’m in!

Every second Monday at 9 AM CET, I share my latest book reviews in English and French, offering insights and reflections on a wide range of topics. It’s like a book club, but without the awkward silences and questionable snack choices.

As Umberto Eco wisely said, ‘There are more books in the world than hours in which to read them.’ My reading list is always overflowing, but I’m always on the lookout for great recommendations to add to the pile.

If you have a book you think I should read, feel free to reach out and it might just jump to the top of my list!

If you enjoy my reviews and want to support my work, consider buying me a book and let’s have a chat about it.

Happy reading!
