Hey @ProductivityGame, I don't who you are, but I have to tell you-you are the only on KZbin who makes summaries to the point and focuses on authors' point of view. I really appreciate you for that. I stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago, and now I quickly search a book review from you because they are precise and have no BS. Thanks for making the video, and keep continuing making them. I agree with a lot of others in the comment section as well - you deserve way lot more followers. I'll do my part of sharing as possible. Again, thanks for making these videos and keep on doing.

[@iamtb9]

I couldn't agree more with Alex. We truly appreciate you!! Thank you for doing it and taking the time.

[@yasserhma440]

Yes Alex is right! You're amazing and number ☝️

[@murielsamuels4370]

Facts!

[@RashidKapadia]

Wonderful Work! One simply cannot go wrong by investing 10 - 15 minutes daily with this kind of learning. Fantastic video book review. Splendid example of "clarity and brevity". THNAK YOU!

[@chinmayadhiman3358]

just started reading this book. It made me open my eyes for how important is the power of choice!

[@knicks2030]

I like how you added what you got out of the book, but still mostly focused on what the book covered. Great review!

[@samuelpdavidson]

Thanks heaps for the insight man! Your videos are always refreshing and really allow me to gain a wider perspective on life without having to spend hours reading.

[@dragonmaster7841]

You have great reviews. Good job. Takes a lot of hours to summarize the key parts of any book.

[@patmanrox7990]

I just finished reading the good book, and I look at your wonderful video for the summary.

[@tomperkins5657]

This podcast was required for our Navigator staff one year study on our calling and vision. I believe this is one of, if not THE best video I have listened to on YT! Oh, that I heard and applied 40 years ago!! I did get it but not until my late forties.

[@laurellchantiloupe2295]

Excellent. Absolutely will be practiced by me. I needed this topic so much.

[@marcelloantoniodreier6978]

Something different! Really liked it!

[@lk1286]

Thank you so much. You saved my time. I seldom give comment because of privacy. But, really, your summary is rational and to the point. I am a favor reader too. I struggled to reread my notes, you gave me an excellent demonstration. Love you

The way he describes Buffets investment strategy it makes it seem like he could be the demonstration of survivorship bias.

This was very nice , very good breakdown ...... I thankful to have found your channel , keep up the good work

[@Journeymanlive]

I wanna point a little thing out, about sleep. When I'm busy with normal, but minimal sleep. I get playful, I let go , and make better decision, I'm kinda tired in a way, so I go with the vital truth/needs. better essential decisions. When I sleep a lot, I tend to regain "learned helplessness" and shame of procrastination, as if I have so much energy I even have some for "wrong" things...kinda funny. Sleep is very personal also, for some people 5h is way enough. Anyway great video !

[@MikeLyncheski]

I started out thinking "this is great, now I don't need to buy the book:. By the end, I was on Amazon, getting it as fast as I can. Great review! Can't wait to dive in.

“I'm actually as proud of the things we haven't done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying 'no' to 1,000 things. You have to pick carefully.” - Steve Jobs

[@MakeIndiaSmart]

Excellent book it is

[@minetime6881]

I have read the book, and was thinking about this today: if we only do what is absolutely essential to our 100%-we-want-it, long term responsibilities/goals, like being a good parent, child, sibling, friend, worker, healthy person, and learner, if we just focus on those things, and do nothing that doesn’t contribute to that, I can’t imagine one’s life looking bad, right? If you only do the bare minimum to achieve all of those things, you know you’ll probably have time for the other one’s. Then you can do it. And if you do it, isn’t that what a good life is? Just a thought.

[@meenukumar6203]

awesome ideas. thanks a lot for sharing this vedio . keep it up the good work. you r helping lot of people deepak k ,florida

[@indviduation]

*Greg summarizes this is saying he makes big bets on the essential few investment opportunities and says no to the many merely good ones* And how did Buffet figure out which of these _"Big bests"_ where the best choices?

I think Greg is amazing and I have gained a lot of power from his words, but why do we as a species need to shock helpless dogs in order to prove this point!?! WTF???????

[@saloni.sharma]

They don't shock them harmfully. It's mild. Mild enough to not hurt but cause discomfort. I've been to a few tests as a subject myself. There's no side effect or anything.

[@DavidSaundersPosts]

Because shocking dogs was essential!

[@thepocketchronicles]

The study he’s referring to was performed in the 1960’s. I doubt a similar study would ever make it past an ethics board now, thankfully.

[@LinkEX]

@@thepocketchronicles Meanwhile, animal agriculture keeps growing because people at large tolerate a mistreatment that makes this dog experiment look harmless in comparison.

[@VincentGonzalezVeg]

@@LinkEX pasture raised is the highest quality I've farmed chickens in my backyard, they need happiness to make all the nutrents Chickens are like a biotechnology, they don't exist in nature we made them I still intend to buy a chicken farm replace the roof with something like glass and then grow a forest inside and put the chickens in so I can harvest eggs Literally building it up to be like a paradise of their ancestors I bought live chickens from a butcher shop and they had some problems (in the head from being there) & it reflected with the eggs It's bad buisness If I just want to make as much money as I can, them I need to do it right Even from a money-grubbing position, if I want to insert asset & receive cash I'd buy a vending machine Different context And yeah I agree factory farming is super fucked up They're not doing the right way, like it's myopic, Like trying to feed a computer They're basically running chicken like a Bitcoin farm The guy who did the supersize Me documentary did a documentary about chicken farming I'm learning about how to design food forests so that I can put a outdoor farm near you Around the globe for food stability

wow loved your summary I hope you keep up the good work, ummm what about you add vids in which you tell us about your journey in actually applying what you learn from each book the mistakes you make and difficulties you face and how you overcome them and teach us more about these books but on the practical field instead of just the theoretical one, your channel would be the dream channel for me hhhh

[@jms4406]

What's tough is if you have a really good paying job with lots of time off, but it eats at your soul, and no other job will pay as much as it or guarantee a good retirement, or the amount of time off. You get to the point where you ask yourself if you should learn to quit complaining and when you do suddenly your energy starts to come back.

[@DeadEndFrog]

lmao, if philosophers found the meaning of life, the capitalists would use it for selling shoes

[@-dennis3755]

I see, in that case. The meaning of life is to never buy shoes.. heh, gottem

[@hiareeb]

That's the thing about meaning of life, it is not one single piece of stuff that you can buy or sell, but actually an idea where you need to find it yourself and differs person to person.

[@DeadEndFrog]

@@hiareeb it was a joke, but i agree

[@leedevee]

Well said. This video (haven't read the book) starts with a guy learning he should prioritise family life over work and then switches to Warren Buffett and some airline CEO applying essentialism to getting as rich as possible? Very deep.

[@sarasperikavin5555]

Essentialist lives their 60 years of life in 30 years. They must be an expert in their core field. Probably they doesn't failed, because they does, what they knows.

[@TheHadMatters]

How is this not more existentialism than essentialism? The reason it is advised that the man should have decided for his family isn't that it would be some sort of intrinsic part of his identity that he has to abide by. It's just that he values his family more.

[@atanzhang2582]

I'm directed here when reading Kripke's Name and Necessity, seems like there are two ways of using the word "essentialism", wrong place for philosophical investigation I guess.

[@jaypayleitner1]

Essentialism has its roots in the obscure scripture passage found in Proverbs 30:8-9. It's the Prayer of Agur and contains the secret for finding balance and purpose. In many ways, the opposite of The Prayer of Jabez.

[@kylesteadman4343]

Hear that scripture is for pondering: 8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: 9 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

Love this illustration! I appreciate the summary of this book! Small critique: where are the women and people of color to be quoted as examples? The gender / racial gaps in this are obvious most especially when the non-white males mentioned are used for "hunter / gatherer" and "native" examples. Again, I so appreciate this review and this video.

[@aberamT]

Bridget Sweeti I'm young and I don't really understand, why is representation important here? Anyone can reap this knowledge regardless of the examples, I'm sorry I just don't understand.

[@manpreetsehdeva5785]

Is it essential to look for discrimination even in things that are just plain examples.. How comes there was no issue with why only dogs were mentioned. .they dint mention elephants... Elephants didn't become ignored or sidelined.....

[@christofthedead]

this isn't "essentialism" as the term has been used for thousands of years (Essentialism is a philosophical term referring to the view that objects have a set of attributes that are necessary to their identity). Very misleading title

[@jiannanhuang4974]

The only problem was that most of the cases Mr. McKeown elaborated in the book to make his points were either some highly successful CEO or some world-class chef. "For every 100 great opportunities I say no to 99 of them"; "The CEO only does the work that he would have done as a consultant and nothing more"; Or "the chef only serves for half the time of a year and dedicated the other half to develop new cuisines". Unfortunately, these examples aren't so helpful for most people because many times we thrive to have just ONE great opportunity. It's called "lack of external validity". Great ideas though. For a book of 200+ pages, I was anticipating more "easier-to-copy real-life" examples. Who exactly was the book for? "The essential few instead of the trivial many", mabe?

[@queensigal]

The dog experiments are so cruel ..but the conclusion is clear...a chaotic life is in the time of corona clear

[@joshpolman201]

Um... that dog experiment is hypothetical, yeah? I really hope no one’s electrocuting dogs to prove a point.

[@seankennedy4284]

... "If we felt social discomfort, it meant we were close to being kicked out of the tribe." Nice review. That every little human behavior purportedly redounds to evolutionary explanation is annoying. I, for one, happen not to buy the theory. Otherwise, good stuff.
