Was fun to read and also interesting to read it in German with my boy this time.
second read in 2024
Still like the book and his writing style. Lots of great ideas in it. Once again, the scatterfocus part is totally underrated. You need the balance to perform on your highest level.

Read it a second time and I took notes this time. I didn’t had the capacity to organize them yet but I took a lot. Still a great book, all my previous points are still valid.

Well written. Entertaining since it's containing stories and also derived principals from these stories.

A bit confusing to follow all the different strands, but maybe it's a good reference to how our lives really are. Challenges don't wait until you think you have capacity for them.
All in all an interesting read (I got hooked up by the 100 words per day thing.).
