“59 Seconds is so good, in fact, it has rekindled my hopes that our new Stack Exchange Productivity Q&A can work.”
Even if ‘self-help’ was contained to the current cult of personality and anecdotal advice, I think the SE Productivity would still be successful. The industry is huge and has been huge for decades!
Saying that, 59 Seconds and similar books like this (there’s another good one Creativity based on actual research: http://www.spring.org.uk/how-to-be-creative-ebook), I’m glad are popping up and challenging the so called intuitive avenues to happiness and satisfaction.
There’s nothing like science! Thanks for the post.
