Fix Your Craving Mindset and Rewire Your Habits to Thrive with Enough

by Michael Easter

Michael Easter is a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). He’s also a GREAT writer. As per the inside flap of the book: “Our world is overloaded with everything we’re built to crave. The fix for scarcity brain isn’t to blindly aim for less. It’s to understand why we crave more in the first place, shake our worst habits, and use what we already have better. Then we can experience life in a new way—a more satisfying way.”

The Science of Setting Them, Achieving Them, and Creating Your Best Life

by Caroline Adams Miller, MAPP

Caroline is tied for first as my all-time favorite PRACTICAL Positive Psychologist. She has a gift for bringing the empirical wisdom from academia alive in the pages of her books. I’m inspired not just by the wisdom she shares in her books, but how she's committed to embodying that wisdom in her life. So I was honored when Caroline invited me to write the foreword to this book. As I said in the foreword, there are a LOT of books on goal setting out there but if you’re looking for a SCIENCE-BACKED approach to setting goals, this is the one to get.

The Inside Story of How Social Media Rewired Our Minds and Our World

by Max Fisher

Max Fisher is a former international reporter for the New York Times, where he contributed to a series about social media that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in 2019. I got this book after Yuval Noah Harari referenced it in his latest book, Nexus. It’s hard to put into words just how powerful the book is. I don’t think I’ve EVER read a book that made me more nervous about the future of our society than this one. If you've ever found yourself overwhelmed by a sense of moral outrage after spending time on social media platforms, I think you will find this book as powerful as I did.

How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure

by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt

Jonathan Haidt is one of the world’s leading researchers/thinkers on the science of moral and political psychology. Greg Lukianoff is the president of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression and one of the country’s most passionate defenders of free expression. One of the things I most appreciated about the book was the way in which Jonathan and Greg embodied the virtue of “intellectual humility.” They are incredibly rigorous in both the precision of their thinking and the respectful, humble tone with which they communicate their views. Reading this book was an education in not just the *theory* of how to engage in thoughtful discussions about challenging subjects, but a wonderful demonstration of that theory in practice.

I’m a big fan of Jonathan Haidt. He’s one of the world’s leading researchers/thinkers on the science of moral and political psychology. I read his first book The Happiness Hypothesis over a decade ago. At this point, I’ve created over 700 Philosopher’s Notes, and... I’m pretty sure this is at least tied for first as THE most difficult book to distill into a six-page Note as the themes Jonathan explores are too nuanced to neatly pack into a quick Note. I hope to inspire you to explore these ideas further by getting the book and striving to help create more civility in our discussions about politics and religion. Let’s get to work!
