Publisher's summary
How would you like to work so productively from home that what used to take you eight hours in an office could take you just four hours remotely?
With this audiobook, you’ll discover the secrets to not just getting things done when you’re working from home, but getting them done fast.
Whether you’ve always wanted to work remotely or you’ve been forced into it by events beyond your control, this book will transform you into a powerhouse of productivity. Whatever your reason for remote working and wherever you want to work, you’ll free up so much time, you won’t know what to do with it.
If you’ve been used to working in an office, working remotely can take some getting used to - particularly with a TV, snacks, and the endless other distractions of home. In this book, author Hari Singh guides you through the practical steps needed to set up your new working environment so that you can focus and deliver your best - without feeling like you’re all alone.
Among other things, you’ll learn the secrets of how to:
- Transition from hardcore office worker to hardcore remote worker
- Boost your productivity so nobody even realizes you’re not in an office
- Get stronger, both mentally and physically
- Give yourself more free time than you know what to do with
- Leave your colleagues wondering how you do it!
Author Hari Singh has been a web development specialist contractor for 16 years, and he’s witnessed the transition from on-site to remote-working first hand. He’s made all the mistakes in the book, but he’s lived to tell the tale. Now, he’s going to show you how to avoid the same pitfalls, helping you transition seamlessly to remote working with no stress and no fuss.

Overthinking manifests itself as an overwhelming fear that, although unrealistic, ends up taking control of your thoughts and completely blocking your actions. Excessive thinking generates excessive thinking. It is a process that feeds itself and leads inevitably to exhaustion, both emotional and physical because your mind never stops running and consuming energy. If you are genuinely motivated by the desire to reverse this vicious circle, but perhaps you never had the right approach to solving the problem, this audiobook may be what you are missing to accomplish the mission.

Study after study finds there is one trait that sets the most successful people apart from the rest of us. That one trait isn’t wearing the same shirt everyday or some secret workout formula. The one trait that successful people have is that they know how to form good habits that stick. If you have ever struggled to keep a New Year’s resolution or if you have a hard time meeting your goals, you need this book. This book will teach you how to form good habits, how to make them stick, and what habits you should be forming. The power of habit stacking is that by slowly introducing small habits into your life you start to build synergies. You will begin to be getting more out of each habit every time you stack another, small good habit on top of it. It will seem like magic, but habit stacking is based on science.

Story
The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Story
On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

Story
Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Nikola Tesla was a major contributor to the electrical revolution that transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of modern AC electricity, and contributed to the development of radio and television. Like his competitor Thomas Edison, Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, enjoying the company of New York high society and dazzling the likes of Mark Twain with his electrical demonstrations. An astute self-promoter and gifted showman, he cultivated a public image of the eccentric genius.

In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.
