### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The best way to predict the future is to create it
  

*by T***N on September 21, 2017*









  
  
    “The best way to predict the future is to create it,” Peter Drucker said. And that’s at the heart of  Maximize Your Potential. It’s the second of a three-part series being developed by 99u.This compact book comes from the folks who don’t want to help us get more ideas (we’ve got plenty), but do help us make our best ideas become reality. The volume focuses on creating opportunities, building expertise, cultivating relationships and taking risks. As in the first volume, if you’ve read any personal growth books at all, you’ll get compelling and condensed reminders of things you should already know. If you haven’t read the other books, start here. The writers also help us understand growth in new ways.For example, I’ve recommended a great book called The Power of Habit. But if you don’t have time, a few of the chapters in this book cover the same territory. Here’s Tony Schwartz writing on Developing Mastery through Deliberate Practice. Schwartz says that ritual “is a highly precise behavior you do at a specific time so that it becomes automatic over time and no longer requires much conscious intention or energy.”More from Schwartz's chapter:"Will and discipline, it turns out, are highly overrated. We each have one reservoir we draw on, and it gets progressively depleted each time we use it to get something done…. A ritualized approach to practice helps conserve our precious and finite reserves of energy.""…It was only after I began studying the science of high performance that I started building a new sort of practice ritual. I still sit down at my desk first thing in the morning when I’m working on books, but now I write for exactly ninety minutes at a time—not eighty-five and not ninety-five. Then I take a break. I may get something to eat, close my eyes and spend ten minutes breathing reply, or take a run, each activity in order to refuel and recover.""When I’m finished renewing, I come back and work the same way for another ninety minutes…""The heart of achieving mastery, I’ve come to believe, is expanding the amplitude of the waves you make in your life. When you’re working, give it everything you’ve got, for relatively show periods of time. When you’re recovering, let go and truly refuel."

    Want to learn how to build and cultivate your expertise to generate new opportunities? This is your book!
  

*by R***) on June 23, 2017*









  
  
    I would recommend this book to anyone who struggles with finding new opportunities and fear of the unknown. The contributors of this book lay out several different strategies for creating opportunities, building expertise, cultivating relationships, and taking risks. Unlike the first book in the series, Manage Your Day-to-Day: Build Your Routine, Find Your Focus, and Sharpen Your Creative Mind (The 99U Book Series), this book is less theoretical and more action-oriented—it includes more statistics, studies, and anecdotes that make the strategies easier to understand and implement.I would give this book 4.5 stars if possible (I really liked it, but I didn't necessarily love it)—however, as that isn't allowed, I decided to round up.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Super quick-reading, inspiring, practical goodness I think you’ll enjoy.
  

*by B***N on January 20, 2017*









  
  
     “Comedian Milton Berle used to say, ‘If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.’ If we want to realize our full potential as creatives and individuals, being proactive isn’t just an option, it’s a requirement. Fortunately, we have more power than ever to share our ideas with the world, to connect with others, and to define our career paths. The era of self-invention is upon us. ...To help you through this brave new world, 99U’s Maximize Your Potential assembles insights around four key areas that we believe are essential to long term career success: identifying and creating new opportunities, cultivating your expertise over time, building collaborative relationships, and learning how to take risks. ...Let this volume be your guide as you craft—and re-craft—your own creative career over time, constantly striving to up the ante on just who you can become.”~ Jocelyn K. Glei from Maximize Your PotentialThis is the second of the three books currently in 99U Book Series. Check out our Note on the first as well: Manage Your Day-to-Day.It’s another collection of great little essays by some of the world’s most creative minds (including many authors we feature: Cal Newport, Heidi Grant Halvorson and Tony Schwartz) and reminds me of Steven Pressfield’s trilogy + Austin Kleon’s books on the creative process. Great stuff. I’m excited to share some of my favorite Big Ideas:1. Permanent Beta - Welcome to your new residence.2. Praising - Smartness vs. Effort.3. Proving Yourself Right - Make a decision then make it right.4. Seinfeld + Fear + Reruns - Lean in and grow.5. Expanding the Amplitude - Of the waves we make.Here’s to Maximizing Our Potential as we Grow Our Expertise, Take Bold Risks & Build Incredible Careers!More goodness— including PhilosophersNotes on 300+ books in our ​*OPTIMIZE*​ membership program.
