The Frog, the Elephant, and Broccoli. How to Live and How Not To
To make the right decisions, you need to master three methods: how to eat an elephant, how to gulp down a frog, and when to eat broccoli. You've probably heard about the elephant and the frog: the elephant should be...
eaten slowly and in pieces, while the frog should be gulped down first thing in the morning. The idea with broccoli is not as well known, but the concept is this: broccoli is good for longevity. However, just knowing this is not enough to live longer; you also need to eat it regularly. Why does willpower work poorly and why should we avoid stupidity? Which tasks should be done right now, and which ones are better to throw out of life? Why are habits better than goals? How to do something new and interesting without giving up right at the start? How to learn anything and become one of the best? What is deliberate practice and why can 10,000 hours not be enough? Alexey Markov, a candidate of economic sciences, author of the famous “Hulinomics”, rock star, and father of four children teaches people to think in his customary manner: precisely, harshly, with cynical jokes and very simple language.
