Books I have read: 3 Seconds: The Power of Thinking Twice

Just finished reading 3 Seconds: The Power of Thinking Twice by Les Parrott.  This book was a mish mash with some great nuggets, some usual business writing, and some bits that just seemed like additional padding.  The concept is that within 3 seconds we can…

  • Empower ourself
  • Embrace a good challenge
  • Fuel your passion
  • Own your piece of the pie
  • Walk the extra mile
  • Quit stewing and start doing

The book focuses on inner thinking and how that can affect your actions, but it seems to lack some of the scientific background on this.  Whilst it has some nice stories and some great little phrases, it doesn’t seem to flow, and instead at times seen to be a collection of random stories.  For me it wasn’t one I’d rush to read again.
