Takeaways
Description
In his book Rest , Silicon Valley futurist Alex Soojung-Kim Pang dispels the myth that the harder we work, the better the outcome. He combines rigorous scientific research with a rich array of examples of writers, painters, and thinkers---from Darwin to Stephen King---to demonstrate that we need rest if we want to be productive. Through deliberate rest, we will have more energy, sharper ideas, and a better life.
