]]> <![CDATA[A Slap in the Face: Why Insults Hurt--And Why They Shouldn't]]> 16094246
In A Slap in the Face, William Irvine undertakes a wide-ranging investigation of insults, their history, the role they play in social relationships, and the science behind them. He examines not just memorable zingers, such as Elizabeth Bowen's description of Aldous Huxley as "The stupid person's idea of a clever person," but subtle insults as well, such as when someone insults us by reporting the insulting things others have said about us: "I never read bad reviews about myself," wrote entertainer Oscar Levant, "because my best friends invariably tell me about them." Irvine also considers the role insults play in our society: they can be used to cement relations, as when a woman playfully teases her husband, or to enforce a social hierarchy, as when a boss publicly berates an employee. He goes on to investigate the many ways society has tried to deal with insults-by adopting codes of politeness, for example, and outlawing hate speech-but concludes that the best way to deal with insults is to immunize ourselves against them: We need to transform ourselves in the manner recommended by Stoic philosophers. We should, more precisely, become insult pacifists, trying hard not to insult others and laughing off their attempts to insult us.

A rousing follow-up to The Good Life, A Slap in the Face will interest anyone who's ever delivered an insult or felt the sting of one--in other words, everyone.]]> 264 William B. Irvine 0199934452 Nabila 0 to-read 3.70 2013 A Slap in the Face: Why Insults Hurt--And Why They Shouldn't

Forget “try harder.� When your brain works differently, you need to try different .

Diagnosed with ADHD at age twelve, Jessica struggled with a brain that she didn’t understand. She lost things constantly, couldn’t finish projects, and felt like she was putting more effort in than everyone around her while falling further and further behind. At thirty-two years old—broke, divorced, and living with her mom—Jessica decided to look more deeply into her ADHD challenges. She reached out to experts, devoured articles, and shared her discoveries on YouTube.

In How to ADHD , Jessica reveals the tools that have changed her life while offering an unflinching look at the realities of living with ADHD. The key to navigating a world not built for the neurodivergent brain, she discovered, isn’t to fix or fight against its natural tendencies but to understand and work with them. She explains how ADHD affects everyday life, covering executive function impairments, rejection sensitivity, difficulties with attention regulation, and more. You’ll also find ADHD-specific strategies for adapting your environment, routines, and systems,

� Boost the signal and decrease the noise . Facilitate focus by putting your goals where you can see them and fighting distractions with distractions.
� Have less stuff to manage. Learn why you have trouble planning and prioritizing, and why doing more starts with doing less.
� Build your “time wisdom.� Work backward when you plan, and track how long it actually takes you to do something.
� Learn about your emotions. Understand how naming your emotions and letting yourself experience them can make them easier to regulate.

With quotes from Jessica’s online community, chapter summaries, and reading shortcuts designed for the neurodivergent reader, How to ADHD will help you recognize your strengths and challenges, tackle “bad brain days,� and be kinder to yourself in the process.]]> 464 Jessica McCabe 0593578945 Nabila 0 to-read 4.43 2024 How to ADHD: An Insider's Guide to Working with Your Brain (Not Against It)

Everything Is OK is the story of Debbie Tung’s struggle with anxiety and her experience with depression. She shares what it’s like navigating life, overthinking every possible worst-case scenario, and constantly feeling like all hope is lost.

The book explores her journey to understanding the importance of mental health in her day-to-day life and how she learns to embrace the highs and lows when things feel out of control. Debbie opens up about deeply personal issues and the winding road to recovery, discovers the value of self-love, and rebuilds a more mindful relationship with her mental health.

In this graphic memoir, Debbie aims to provide positive and comforting messages to anyone who is facing similar difficulties or is just trying to get through a tough time in life. She hopes to encourage readers to be kinder to themselves, to know that they are not alone, and that it’s okay to be vulnerable because they are not defined by their mental health struggles.

We think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there’s another way?

Dr Ali Abdaal � the world's most-followed productivity expert � has uncovered an easier and happier path to success. Drawing on decades of psychological research, he has found that the secret to productivity and success isn't grind � it's feeling good. If you can make your work feel good, then productivity takes care of itself.

In this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden 'energisers' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three 'blockers' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three 'sustainers' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfillment. He recounts the inspiring stories of founders, Olympians, and Nobel-winning scientists who embody the principles of Feel-Good Productivity. And he introduces the simple, actionable changes that you can use to achieve more and live better, starting today.

Armed with Ali’s insights, you won’t just accomplish more. You’ll feel happier and more fulfilled along the way.]]> 304 Ali Abdaal 1250865034 Nabila 4 to-read 3.94 2023 Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You

Hidden in Jimbocho, Tokyo, is a booklover's paradise. On a quiet corner in an old wooden building lies a shop filled with hundreds of second-hand books.

Twenty-five-year-old Takako has never liked reading, although the Morisaki bookshop has been in her family for three generations. It is the pride and joy of her uncle Satoru, who has devoted his life to the bookshop since his wife Momoko left him five years earlier.

When Takako's boyfriend reveals he's marrying someone else, she reluctantly accepts her eccentric uncle's offer to live rent-free in the tiny room above the shop. Hoping to nurse her broken heart in peace, Takako is surprised to encounter new worlds within the stacks of books lining the Morisaki bookshop.

]]> <![CDATA[Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed]]> 37570546 From a psychotherapist, and national advice columnist comes a thought-provoking new book that takes us behind the scenes of a therapist's world -- where her patients are looking for answers (and so is she).

One day, Lori Gottlieb is a therapist who helps patients in her Los Angeles practice. The next, a crisis causes her world to come crashing down. Enter Wendell, the quirky but seasoned therapist in whose office she suddenly lands. With his balding head, cardigan, and khakis, he seems to have come straight from Therapist Central Casting. Yet he will turn out to be anything but.

As Gottlieb explores the inner chambers of her patients' lives -- a self-absorbed Hollywood producer, a young newlywed diagnosed with a terminal illness, a senior citizen threatening to end her life on her birthday if nothing gets better, and a twenty-something who can't stop hooking up with the wrong guys -- she finds that the questions they are struggling with are the very ones she is now bringing to Wendell.

With startling wisdom and humor, Gottlieb invites us into her world as both clinician and patient, examining the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and others as we teeter on the tightrope between love and desire, meaning and mortality, guilt and redemption, terror and courage, hope and change.

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is revolutionary in its candor, offering a deeply personal yet universal tour of our hearts and minds and providing the rarest of gifts: a boldly revealing portrait of what it means to be human, and a disarmingly funny and illuminating account of our own mysterious lives and our power to transform them.]]> 415 Lori Gottlieb 1328662055 Nabila 0 to-read 4.36 2019 Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed

]]> <![CDATA[Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout]]> 197773418 Do fewer things. Work at a natural pace. Obsess over quality.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Digital Minimalism and Deep Work, a groundbreaking philosophy for pursuing meaningful accomplishment while avoiding overload.

Our current definition of “productivity� is broken. It pushes us to treat busyness as a proxy for useful effort, leading to impossibly lengthy task lists and ceaseless meetings. We’re overwhelmed by all we have to do and on the edge of burnout, left to decide between giving into soul-sapping hustle culture or rejecting ambition altogether. But are these really our only choices?

Long before the arrival of pinging inboxes and clogged schedules, history’s most creative and impactful philosophers, scientists, artists, and writers mastered the art of producing valuable work with staying power. In this timely and provocative book, Cal Newport harnesses the wisdom of these traditional knowledge workers to radically transform our modern jobs. Drawing from deep research on the habits and mindsets of a varied cast of storied thinkers—from Galileo and Isaac Newton, to Jane Austen and Georgia O’Keefe—Newport lays out the key principles of “slow productivity,� a more sustainable alternative to the aimless overwhelm that defines our current moment. Combining cultural criticism with systematic pragmatism, Newport deconstructs the absurdities inherent in standard notions of productivity, and then provides step-by-step advice for workers to replace them with a slower, more humane alternative.

From the aggressive rethinking of workload management, to introducing seasonal variation, to shifting your performance toward long-term quality, Slow Productivity provides a roadmap for escaping overload and arriving instead at a more timeless approach to pursuing meaningful accomplishment. The world of work is due for a new revolution. Slow productivity is exactly what we need.]]> 244 Cal Newport 0593544854 Nabila 0 to-read 3.64 2024 Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout

Edited and translated by James Romm, How to Die reveals a provocative thinker and dazzling writer who speaks with a startling frankness about the need to accept death or even, under certain conditions, to seek it out.

Seneca believed that life is only a journey toward death and that one must rehearse for death throughout life. Here, he tells us how to practice for death, how to die well, and how to understand the role of a good death in a good life. He stresses the universality of death, its importance as life’s final rite of passage, and its ability to liberate us from pain, slavery, or political oppression.


Featuring beautifully rendered new translations, How to Die also includes an enlightening introduction, notes, the original Latin texts, and an epilogue presenting Tacitus's description of Seneca's grim suicide.

]]> Don't Go to Sleep in the Dark 220304598 Don't Go to Sleep in the Dark (1972) was the first gathering of Celia Fremlin's short fiction, a form in which she had published prolifically - for the likes of She, Playmen, and Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine - while building her reputation as a novelist of psychological suspense.

Female characters predominate in these tales, as does the doom-filled atmosphere that was Fremlin's metier. She explores her familiar theme of strained mother-child relations, but she also delves into the supernatural realm as well as the psychological. As ever, her capacities for making the everyday unnerving and keeping the reader guessing are richly in evidence.

Your greatest impact begins right where you are. Now the bestselling authors of The Whole-Brain Child and No-Drama Discipline explain what this means over the course of childhood.

"There is parenting magic in this book."--Michael Thompson, Ph.D., co-author of the New York Times bestselling classic Raising Cain

One of the very best scientific predictors for how any child turns out--in terms of happiness, academic success, leadership skills, and meaningful relationships--is whether at least one adult in their life has consistently shown up for them. In an age of scheduling demands and digital distractions, showing up for your child might sound like a tall order. But as bestselling authors Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson reassuringly explain, it doesn't take a lot of time, energy, or money. Instead, showing up means offering a quality of presence. And it's simple to provide once you understand the four building blocks of a child's healthy development. Every child needs to feel what Siegel and Bryson call the Four S's:

- Safe: We can't always insulate a child from injury or avoid doing something that leads to hurt feelings. But when we give a child a sense of safe harbor, she will be able to take the needed risks for growth and change.
- Seen: Truly seeing a child means we pay attention to his emotions--both positive and negative--and strive to attune to what's happening in his mind beneath his behavior.
- Soothed: Soothing isn't about providing a life of ease; it's about teaching your child how to cope when life gets hard, and showing him that you'll be there with him along the way. A soothed child knows that he'll never have to suffer alone.
- Secure: When a child knows she can count on you, time and again, to show up--when you reliably provide safety, focus on seeing her, and soothe her in times of need, she will trust in a feeling of secure attachment. And thrive!

Based on the latest brain and attachment research, The Power of Showing Up shares stories, scripts, simple strategies, illustrations, and tips for honoring the Four S's effectively in all kinds of situations--when our kids are struggling or when they are enjoying success; when we are consoling, disciplining, or arguing with them; and even when we are apologizing for the times we don't show up for them. Demonstrating that mistakes and missteps are repairable and that it's never too late to mend broken trust, this book is a powerful guide to cultivating your child's healthy emotional landscape.]]> 256 Daniel J.

]]> <![CDATA[Karena Menikah Tak Sebercanda Itu]]> 61462761
Setelah persiapan batin selesai, maka kita memasuki persiapan yang lebih besar lagi. Kita mencari guru, untuk membimbing aspek keagamaan kita. Kita menghafal dan terus menghafal Al-Qur'an sebagai petunjuk hidup. Kita bebaskan diri kita dari jerat utang, dan juga potensi riba sekecil apapun. Lalu, terutama, kita menjauh, sejauh-jauhnya, dari peluang berzina, meskipun sebenarnya kita pernah melakukannya, tapi kita harus segera berpaling.

Menikah, sebenarnya adalah proses mencari orang tua bagi anak-anak kita. Kita berusaha mencari calon ibu yang tuntas, calon ibu yang selesai dengan dirinya sendiri. Kita juga berusaha mencari calon ayah yang mampu menafkahi, dan juga hatinya penuh dengan harapan serta cita-cita besar. Ada sejumlah ciri dan kriteria yang harus kita pasang, agar jangan sembarang orang kita terima. Ciri-ciri inilah yang menjadi patokan dasarnya.

Setelah semua proses itu dilalui, kita sekarang siap taaruf. Kita siapkan data diri, kita siapkan mental, dan kita siapkan untuk pertemuan dengan calon pasangan kita. Jika taaruf berujung penerimaan, maka khitbah akan menjadi ujungnya. Di masa-masa inilah titik krusial dari sebuah persiapan menikah.

Khitbah, tinggal selangkah menuju akad nikah. Ada batasan-batasan yang harus dijaga untuk menjamin proses pernikahan berjalan baik dan aman. Kita jangan membuka peluang untuk melakukan dosa, atau mengorek hubungan kita di masa lalu dengan seseorang yang haram. Ini karena, khitbah memang sesuci itu.

Di dalam buku ini, kita akan melalui enam tahap pernikahan itu dengan perlahan dan tertib; agar pernikahan menjadi sesuatu yang menyenangkan. Sebuah persiapan, agar pernikahan tak jadi bercanda. Itulah tujuan utamanya.]]> 200 Amar Ar-risalah 6239663255 Nabila 4 4.55 2022 Karena Menikah Tak Sebercanda Itu

]]> Huda F Cares? 78292425 In this laugh-out-loud funny sequel to the graphic novel Huda F Are You?, the Fahmys are off to Disney World, but self-conscious Huda worries her family will stand out too much.

Huda and her sisters can’t believe it when her parents announce that they’re actually taking a vacation this summer . . . to DISNEY WORLD! But it’s not quite as perfect as it seems. First Huda has to survive a 24-hour road trip from Michigan to Florida, with her sisters annoying her all the way. And then she can’t help but notice the people staring at her and her family when they pray in public. Back home in Dearborn she and her family blend right in because there are so many other Muslim families, but not so much in Florida and along the way.

It’s a vacation of forced (but unexpectly successful?) sisterly bonding, a complicated new friendship, a bit more independence, and some mixed feelings about her family’s public prayers. Huda is proud of her religion and who she is, but she still sure wishes she didn’t care so much what other people thought.]]> 208 Huda Fahmy 0593532805 Nabila 0 to-read 4.20 2023 Huda F Cares?

Huda and her family just moved to Dearborn, Michigan, a small town with a big Muslim population. In her old town, Huda knew exactly who she was: She was the hijabi girl. But in Dearborn, everyone is the hijabi girl.

Huda is lost in a sea of hijabis, and she can't rely on her hijab to define her anymore. She has to define herself. So she tries on a bunch of cliques, but she isn't a hijabi fashionista or a hijabi athlete or a hijabi gamer. She's not the one who knows everything about her religion or the one all the guys like. She's miscellaneous, which makes her feel like no one at all.

One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one—homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us?

In this first volume of the full-color illustrated adaptation of his groundbreaking book, renowned historian Yuval Harari tells the story of humankind’s creation and evolution, exploring the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be “human.� From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens challenges us to reconsider accepted beliefs, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and view specific events within the context of larger ideas.

Featuring 256 pages of full-color illustrations and easy-to-understand text covering the first part of the full-length original edition, this adaptation of the mind-expanding book furthers the ongoing conversation as it introduces Harari’s ideas to a wide new readership.]]> 248 David Vandermeulen 0063055082 Nabila 1 4.36 2020 Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 1 - The Birth of Humankind

People call him the bitter neighbor from hell, but must Ove be bitter just because he doesn't walk around with a smile plastered to his face all the time?

Behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove's mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul.

If these past years have taught us anything, it's that so many women are stuck―stuck in jobs they despise, marriages that are joyless, roles they didn't ask for, and even in their own heads. The pandemic shook our world and now as we emerge from the cover of COVID, going back to "normal" seems insufferable.

If there was ever an opportunity to shake things up, it's now. Through the pages of SHE WHO WINS, Renee Bauer breaks down some uncomfortable truths about the things holding us back from truly winning in life. Because if we can survive a pandemic, homeschooling, loss of income, and even a toilet paper shortage don't we deserve to win?

Using her over two decades as an award-winning divorce attorney and entrepreneur, Renee Bauer shares her own vulnerable stories of divorce, failure, and ultimately, reinvention, to embolden, empower, and inspire women to choose the path most uncomfortable. This self-empowerment and motivational book is equal parts mindset and strategy, that can catapult women's lives from flatlined to fabulous by leaning into doing the hard thing.]]> 288 Renée C.

The people you manage. How well you work with your boss. The way collaboration happens with colleagues and peers. How you connect with important prospects and key clients.

But the hard truth is most of us leave the health and fate of these relationships to chance.

We say “Hi,� exchange pleasantries � and hope for the best.

But every relationship becomes suboptimal at some point, whether it’s a good one that goes off the rails or one that was poor from the start.

Mostly we are resigned to the fact that this is what relationships always get a little broken, or a little stale, or a little worse. C’est la vie, c’est la guerre. Carry on.

But it doesn’t have to be like this.

Every working relationship can be better.

This book shows you how to build the best possible relationship.

]]> <![CDATA[Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results]]> 75665850 AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Few things will change your trajectory in life or business as much as learning to think clearly. Yet few of us recognize opportunities to think in the first place.

You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.

Clear Thinking gives you the tools to recognize the moments that have the potential to transform your trajectory, and reshape how you navigate the critical space between stimulus and response. As Parrish shows, we may imagine we are the protagonists in the story of our lives. But the sad truth is, most of us run on autopilot. Our behavioral defaults, groomed by biology, evolution, and culture, are primed to run the show for us if we don’t intervene. At our worst, we react to events without reasoning, not even realizing that we’ve missed an opportunity to think at all. At our best, we recognize these moments for what they are, and apply the full capacity of our reasoning and rationality to them.

Through stories, mental models, and more, Parrish offers the missing link between behavioral science and real-life outcomes. The result is a must-have manual for optimizing decision-making, gaining competitive advantage, and living a more intentional life.]]> 284 Shane Parrish 0593086112 Nabila 0 to-read 4.16 2023 Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results

What is the key to a good life?

It is a question that preoccupies us all and one that the longest and most successful study of happiness ever conducted strives to answer. In this groundbreaking book, directors of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz, bring together over 80 years of research to reveal the true components of a happy, fulfilled life.

This remarkable work brings together scientific precision, traditional wisdom, incredible real-life stories and actionable insights to prove once and for all that our own wellbeing and ability to flourish is absolutely within our control.

Dalam buku yang harus dibaca oleh siapa saja yang ingin sukses ini, Angela Duckworth (seorang psikolog perintis) menunjukkan bahwa rahasia untuk pencapaian yang luar biasa bukanlah bakat, melainkan perpaduan istimewa antara hasrat (passion) dan kegigihan (perseverance) yang ia sebut "ketabahan" (grit).
Berdasarkan penelitian, wawancara dengan orang-orang yang berprestasi tinggi, serta pengalamannya sendiri, Duckworth menunjukkan bahwa kecenderungan kita untuk terpaku pada bakat alami itu salah: dari segi pencapaian, yang lebih penting adalah usaha yang kita lakukan dan reaksi kita terhadap hambatan. Kemudian, ia menjelaskan bahwa ketabahan bisa dipelajari sekaligus menawarkan rumusan baru kesuksesan individu maupun kesuksesan kolektif.]]> 434 Angela Duckworth 602062093X Nabila 4 4.17 2016 Grit: Kekuatan Passion dan Kegigihan

Ikigai: The Japanese secret to a long and happy life

The people of Japan believe that everyone has an ikigai � a reason to jump out of bed each morning. And according to the residents of the Japanese island of Okinawa � the world’s longest-living people � finding it is the key to a longer and more fulfilled life. Inspiring and comforting, this book will give you the life-changing tools to uncover your personal ikigai. It will show you how to leave urgency behind, find your purpose, nurture friendships and throw yourself into your passions.

The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well

The Danish word hygge is one of those beautiful words that doesn't directly translate into English, but it more or less means comfort, warmth or togetherness. Hygge is the feeling you get when you are cuddled up on a sofa with a loved one, in warm knitted socks, in front of the fire, when it is dark, cold and stormy outside. It that feeling when you are sharing good, comfort food with your closest friends, by candle light and exchanging easy conversation. It is those cold, crisp blue sky mornings when the light through your window is just right.

Lagom: The Swedish Art of Balanced Living

Step aside Hygge. Lagom is the new Scandi lifestyle trend taking the world by storm. This delightfully illustrated book gives you the lowdown on this transformative approach to life and examines how the lagom ethos has helped boost Sweden to the No.10 ranking in 2017's World Happiness Report. Lagom (pronounced 'lah-gom') has no equivalent in the English language but is loosely translated as 'not too little, not too much, just right'. It is widely believed that the word comes from the Viking term 'laget om', for when a mug of mead was passed around a circle and there was just enough for everyone to get a sip.]]> Héctor García 9123672609 Nabila 0 to-read 3.85 2018 Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life / The Little Book of Hygge / Lagom: The Swedish Art of Balanced Living

Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore who just wrote the world’s first comprehensive encyclopaedia of faeries. She’s learned many of the secrets of the Hidden Ones on her adventures . . . and also from her fellow scholar and former rival Wendell Bambleby.

Because Bambleby is more than infuriatingly charming. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother and in search of a door back to his realm. And despite Emily’s feelings for Bambleby, she’s not ready to accept his proposal of marriage: Loving one of the Fair Folk comes with secrets and dangers.

She also has a new project to focus on: a map of the realms of faerie. While she is preparing her research, Bambleby lands her in trouble yet again, when assassins sent by his mother invade Cambridge. Now Bambleby and Emily are on another adventure, this time to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby’s realm and the key to freeing him from his family’s dark plans.

But with new relationships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors and of her own heart.]]> 370 Heather Fawcett 0593500202 Nabila 0 to-read 4.28 2024 Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands (Emily Wilde, #2)

Sungguhkah kesepian bisa membuat orang kehilangan semangat hidup?
Mengapa ada orang yang memutuskan untuk bunuh diri?

With EXPECTING BETTER, award-winning economist Emily Oster spotted a need in the pregnancy market for advice that gave women the information they needed to make the best decision for their own pregnancies. By digging into the data, Oster found that much of the conventional pregnancy wisdom was wrong. In CRIBSHEET, she now tackles an even great challenge: decision making in the early years of parenting.

As any new parent knows, there is an abundance of often-conflicting advice hurled at you from doctors, family, friends, and the internet. From the earliest days, parents get the message that they must make certain choices around feeding, sleep, and schedule or all will be lost. There's a rule--or three--for everything. But the benefits of these choices can be overstated, and the tradeoffs can be profound. How do you make your own best decision?]]> 352 Emily Oster 0525559256 Nabila 4 4.12 2019 Cribsheet: A Data-Driven Guide to Better, More Relaxed Parenting, from Birth to Preschool

In this stunning book, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"—the best and the brightest, the most famous and the most successful. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different?

His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Along the way he explains the secrets of software billionaires, what it takes to be a great soccer player, why Asians are good at math, and what made the Beatles the greatest rock band.

Brilliant and entertaining, Outliers is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.]]> 309 Malcolm Gladwell 0316017922 Nabila 0 to-read 4.19 2008 Outliers: The Story of Success

1. Attention to the present moment; observing, listening, and noticing all the feelings at play in our relationships.
2. Acceptance of ourselves and others just as we are.
3. Appreciation of all our gifts, our limits, our longings, and our poignant human predicament.
4. Affection shown through holding and touching in respectful ways.
5. Allowing life and love to be just as they are, with all their ecstasy and ache, without trying to take control.


When deeply understood and applied, these five simple concepts—what Richo calls the five A's—form the basis of mature love. They help us to move away from judgment, fear, and blame to a position of openness, compassion, and realism about life and relationships. By giving and receiving these five A's, relationships become deeper and more meaningful, and they become a ground for personal transformation.]]> 265 David Richo 1570628122 Nabila 0 to-read 4.13 2002 How to Be an Adult in Relationships: The Five Keys to Mindful Loving

Now Salama volunteers at a hospital in Homs, helping the wounded who flood through the doors daily. Secretly, though, she is desperate to find a way out of her beloved country before her sister-in-law, Layla, gives birth. So desperate, that she has manifested a physical embodiment of her fear in the form of her imagined companion, Khawf, who haunts her every move in an effort to keep her safe.

But even with Khawf pressing her to leave, Salama is torn between her loyalty to her country and her conviction to survive. Salama must contend with bullets and bombs, military assaults, and her shifting sense of morality before she might finally breathe free. And when she crosses paths with the boy she was supposed to meet one fateful day, she starts to doubt her resolve in leaving home at all.

Soon, Salama must learn to see the events around her for what they truly are—not a war, but a revolution—and decide how she, too, will cry for Syria’s freedom.]]> 417 Zoulfa Katouh 0316351377 Nabila 0 to-read 4.48 2022 As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow

Cerita ini benar-benar berbeda.

Sadewa Sagara adalah seorang anak SMA yang serba kekurangan. Lahir di keluarga miskin; selalu rangking terakhir di kelas; wajahnya lebih mirip dengan petasan banting ketimbang wajah manusia; tidak bisa berantem; tidak bisa bermain musik; tidak pernah pacaran. Sering ditolak cewek; nembak sepuluh kali, ditolak sebelas kali; tidak punya keahlian apa-apa. Keahliannya hanya satu, yaitu bernapas. Itu pun kalau diizinkan Tuhan.

Sadewa serupa potret sebagian besar anak SMA di dunia nyata. Bukan siapa-siapa. Tidak punya cerita klise di hidupnya. Selalu tersisih. Selalu mengalah. Tak pernah menang.

Jika kalian ingin mencoba bagaimana rasanya menjadi orang jelek di dunia ini, maka, selamat membaca sebuah cerita tentang seseorang yang tak pernah menjadi pemeran utama di kehidupannya sendiri.]]> 686 Brian Khrisna 9797946231 Nabila 0 to-read 4.01 2021 Parable

]]> <![CDATA[21 Lessons for the 21st Century]]> 38820046 In Sapiens, he explored our past. In Homo Deus, he looked to our future. Now, one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet turns to the present to make sense of today's most pressing issues.

How do computers and robots change the meaning of being human? How do we deal with the epidemic of fake news? Are nations and religions still relevant? What should we teach our children?

Yuval Noah Harari's 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is a probing and visionary investigation into today's most urgent issues as we move into the uncharted territory of the future. As technology advances faster than our understanding of it, hacking becomes a tactic of war, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari addresses the challenge of navigating life in the face of constant and disorienting change and raises the important questions we need to ask ourselves in order to survive.

In twenty-one accessible chapters that are both provocative and profound, Harari builds on the ideas explored in his previous books, untangling political, technological, social, and existential issues and offering advice on how to prepare for a very different future from the world we now live in: How can we retain freedom of choice when Big Data is watching us? What will the future workforce look like, and how should we ready ourselves for it? How should we deal with the threat of terrorism? Why is liberal democracy in crisis?

Harari's unique ability to make sense of where we have come from and where we are going has captured the imaginations of millions of readers. Here he invites us to consider values, meaning, and personal engagement in a world full of noise and uncertainty. When we are deluged with irrelevant information, clarity is power. Presenting complex contemporary challenges clearly and accessibly, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is essential reading.]]> 372 Yuval Noah Harari 0525512179 Nabila 0 to-read 4.15 2018 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

]]> Mindset 58435798
Paparan tentang kesuksesan dalam buku ini sangat mendasar dan langka. Lazimnya, buku-buku tentang kesuksesan lebih menawarkan sisi-sisi praktis. Namun, buku ini justru mengajak Anda menggarap inti masalah kesuksesan: pikiran. Tak hanya itu, buku ini mengontraskan dengan apik tokoh-tokoh dunia—di bidang musik, sastra, sains, olahraga, dan bisnis—yang berpola pikir tetap (fixed mindset) dan berpola pikir tumbuh (growth mindset). Ternyata, tokoh yang berpola pikir tumbuh lebih mampu mempertahankan kesuksesan dan kegembiraan hidup. Hal ini dikarenakan mereka lebih menekankan proses belajar dan peran ikhtiar daripada mengandalkan bakat dan kecerdasan.

Bagi Anda penikmat buku motivasi, teramat sayang bila Anda tak melahap isi buku ini. Bagi Anda para pemimpin, eksekutif, guru, orangtua, atau pelatih olahraga, buku ini sangat membantu dalam mengubah para pembelajar “bermasalah� menjadi insan-insan sukses dan bahagia. Sebagai pribadi pun, Anda tak bakal kecewa dengan buku hasil penelitian 20 tahun lebih dari ahli kenamaan di bidang psikologi kepribadian ini. Banyak inspirasi yang niscaya membuat Anda senantiasa optimistis, gembira, dan terampil membangkitkan kemampuan-kemampuan dahsyat dalam diri Anda.

]]> <![CDATA[Pendidikan Anak Dalam Islam (Edisi Lengkap)]]> 17212063
Pendidikan terhadap anak merupakan faktor penting yang sangat diperhatikan di dalam Islam. Buktinya, Nabi muhammad SAW sangat menekankan hal ini kepada para shahabatnya. Sejarah telah mencatat, ada banyak kaidah pendidikan yang dicetuskan oleh Islam. Meskipun zaman telah berganti, kaidah-kaidah tersebut tetap relevan untuk diterapkan di masyarakat.

Hanya saja, konsep pendidikan Islam yang luhur itu mulai diabaikan oleh beberapa pendidik. Padahal jika ditilik dari segi kelengkapannya tentu konsep inilah yang paling lengkap, karena tidak hanya mementingkan pendidikan yang bersifat duniawi tetapi juga ukhrawi. Sedangkan konsep lainnya lebih cenderung berat sebelah.

Melalui buku ini, Anda akan mengetahui betapa luas konsep pendidikan anak di dalam Islam. Apalagi risalah ini adalah buah karya dari seorang pakar yang memang menggeluti bidang pendidikan Islam, yaitu Dr. Abdullah Nashih Ulwan. Menariknya, penulis tidak hanya menawarakan konsep pendidikan saja, tetapi juga beberapa pemecahan terhadap masalah kenakalan remaja yang jamak terjadi di masyarakat. Bahkan, penulis juga menyampaikan beberapa tanggung jawab pendidik yang salah satunya adalah tanggung jawab pendidikan seksual kepada anak.

Oleh karena itu, tak berlebihan jika buku ini mendapat predikat sebagai karya yang fenomenal.

]]> Animal Farm 32768899
Tak lama, pemberontakan benar-benar terjadi. Kekuasaan manusia digulingkan di bawah pimpinan dua babi cerdas: Snowball dan Napoleon. Namun, kekuasaan ternyata sungguh memabukkan. Demokrasi yang digaungkan perlahan berbelok kembali menjadi tiran di mana pemimpin harus selalu benar. Dualisme kepemimpinan tak bisa dibiarkan. Salah satu harus disingkirkan � walau harus dengan kekerasan.

Animal Farm merupakan novel alegori politik yang ditulis Orwell pada masa Perang Dunia II sebagai satire atas totaliterisme Uni Soviet. Dianugerahi Retro Hugo Award untuk novela terbaik (1996) dan Prometheus Hall of Fame Award (2011), Animal Farm menjadi mahakarya Orwell yang melejitkan namanya.]]> 148 George Orwell 6022912822 Nabila 4 4.28 1945 Animal Farm

]]> <![CDATA[Konsep Kepemimpinan dalam Islam]]> 40187232
Bagi para aktivis Islam, juga umat pada umumnya, kitab ini sangat penting. Sebab, di samping memberikan wawasan ilmiah yang luas tentang konsep imamah, insya’allah juga akan menambah keyakinan dan kemantapan dalam memperjuangkan tegaknya tatanan (sistem) Islam dalam kehidupan. Dalam salah satu butir kesimpulannya, Syekh Ad-Dumaiji mengatakan, “Tidak ada kemuliaan dan ketinggian derajat bagi umat Islam, kecuali dengan kembali berhukum pada Kitabullah dan Sunnah Rasul-Nya, serta berjuang menegakkan Khilafah Islamiyah yang akan menjaga agama Islam dan mengembalikan kemuliaan dan kehormatan umat Islam.� (hlm. 516-517).

Latar belakang ditulisnya kitab ini adalah keprihatinan penulis akan adanya upaya-upaya jahat berupa tasywîh (pencitra-burukan) dan tadnîs (pencemaran) terhadap konsep imamah dan khilafah yang telah ada sejak masa awal Islam. Ad-Dumaiji menyatakan bahwa kitabnya bertujuan untuk membersihkan konsep imamah dari segala macam debu dan kotoran yang menempel sehingga konsep imamah menjadi jelas—dan tetap aktual—bagi siapa saja yang hendak mencari kebenaran.

Selain ditulis dengan penuh kesungguhan dan kecermatan, kitab ini juga mempunyai sejumlah keunggulan. Di antaranya:

Kelengkapan dalil dan argumentasi menurut pemahaman Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah.
Kesadaran akan situasi kontemporer dan aktualisasi konsep imamah ‘uzhma.
Metode penulisan yang adil dan teruji secara ilmiah.
Siapapun yang membaca buku ini akan memperoleh tambahan wawasan ilmu keislaman yang tidak sedikit, khususnya tentang siyâsah syar’iyyah (politik Islam).

Maklum saja, karena karya ini disajikan sebagai hasil olahan dari 260 kitab rujukan. Kitab ini juga dilengkapi dengan catatan kaki—agar memudahkan pembacanya merujuk referensi aslinya—tanpa harus mengorbankan kenyamanan pembaca yang ingin mengambil intisarinya.]]> 664 Abdullah Ad-Dumaiji 6027637471 Nabila 4 3.33 Konsep Kepemimpinan dalam Islam

While the Civil War raged in America, another revolution took shape across the Atlantic, in the studios of Paris: The artists who would make Impressionism the most popular art form in history were showing their first paintings amidst scorn and derision from the French artistic establishment. Indeed, no artistic movement has ever been quite so controversial. The drama of its birth, played out on canvas and against the backdrop of the Franco-Prussian War and the Commune, would at times resemble a battlefield; and as Ross King reveals, it would reorder both history and culture, and resonate around the world.]]> 464 Ross King 0802715168 Nabila 0 to-read 3.83 2006 The Judgment of Paris: The Revolutionary Decade That Gave the World Impressionism

]]> <![CDATA[Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones]]> 40121378 Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving—every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.

If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.

Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.

Learn how to:
-Make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy);
-Overcome a lack of motivation and willpower;
- Design your environment to make success easier;
- Get back on track when you fall off course;
...and much more.

Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.]]> 319 James Clear Nabila 5 4.33 2018 Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones

]]> The Lean Startup 10127019 Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.

Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.



The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on "validated learning," rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.

Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs - in companies of all sizes - a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it's too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.]]> 299 Eric Ries 0307887898 Nabila 0 to-read 4.11 2011 The Lean Startup

]]> <![CDATA[The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life]]> 28257707 Alternate cover edition of ISBN 9780062457738

In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.

For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited�"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.

There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.]]> 212 Mark Manson Nabila 4 3.87 2016 The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

Over all aku suka sih baca buku ini, rasanya penulis (Mark Manson) membuka mata dan pikiran kita untuk tidak begitu peduli dengan pikiran dan perkataan orang lain, well setiap orang punya prosesnya masing-masing, makanya kita gak perlu ngebandingin diri kita sama orang lain ~~ Banyak kisah-kisah dari orang terkenal yang sangat menginspirasi di buku ini, 4/5.
