  1. Will by Will Smith Summary

    20.10.2022

    Will by Will Smith Summary

    If you like biographies and the entertainment industry, I recommend reading, or listening to, Will by Will Smith. Will did the narration for the audiobook and he did an outstanding job. This is one of my favorite books that I've read in the last year. He shares his humanity and weaknesses as equally as his successes and strengths.

    The Ideal Team Player Book Summary

    The Ideal Team Player has insights into building company culture, what makes good team players, and specific tactics for interviewing and hiring.

    This is a good book if you are a business owner, entrepreneur, or work in a management position where you have input in how the company operates.

    Covert Cows by Steve Robinson Summary

    Covert Cows is a well-rounded book about marketing, sales, hospitality, brand building, and creating company culture.

  5. Algorithms to Live by Book Summary

    14.12.2021

    Algorithms to Live by Book Summary

    I wrote this summary several years ago, so it's not as detailed as I would make today. In spite of that, it is one of my more popular summaries so I wanted to make it available in audio format. Algorithms to Live By is a surprisingly fun book considering the subject matter. It contains mathematical philosophy for decision-making on a wide range of topics. Including hiring, dating, real estate, sorting, and even doing laundry. This episode is also available as a blog post at https://jsilva.blog/2019/02/05/algorithms-book-summary/

    Atomic Habits by James Clear Summary

    James Clear did a nice job of compiling and summarizing knowledge on habits from various sources and then adding specific actionable steps. He has also created good tools and media as companions to the book which are available for free, links in the summary on my blog.

  7. Fanatical Prospecting Book Summary

    15.11.2021

    Fanatical Prospecting Book Summary

    Fantastical Prospecting is a well-rounded book on prospecting and sales. I like the advice on leveraging text messaging and social media for prospecting. The section in chapter 9 on building familiarity and the number of touches required was helpful and a good mental model to be aware of.

  8. Deep Work by Cal Newport Summary

    19.10.2021

    Deep Work by Cal Newport Summary

    Deep Work gives insights into the importance of mastery and the value of doing deep work. I really like, and agree with, the thesis and hypothesis of the book. Every one should find value in this book and I often recommend it as one of my favorites. The book’s thesis: A deep life is not just economically lucrative but also a life well lived. Deep work hypothesis: the ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy.
