Lianne Keemink (The Self Help Hipster) and Andrew Chin discuss self-help books, talk about their obsessions and their pop culture pleasures.
Book of the Month
Andrew and I received the book by Philip Zimbardo & John Boyd, the Time Paradox! I had a copy of a friend, but the Kindle version is 16$ on Amazon.
----more----
Philip Zimbardo is a huge name in (pop) psychology, he's best known for the Stanford Prison Experiment, and the book reads like a big parade of the biggest things that happened in psychology, somehow related to...time.
It's an interesting read on human perspective on time, and it's not a very practical self-help book but inspiring you to take a look at your own attitudes towards time.
You can take the surveys to check out your own attitudes on time here!
"Your attitudes on time have a profound impact on your life and your world."
"Whether you look for happiness in the past, present or the future, you experience happiness in the present."
I mention the article I wrote about taking the long term approach where I also mention the Marshmallow experiment that's also mentioned in the book.
Pop Culture Pleasures
Lianne: Wine Country on Netflix (read my Dutch review on that movie here!)
Lianne: Godzilla, King of the Monsters.OBSESSED. Saw it twice.
Lianne: Good Omens, it's on Amazon Prime and stars David Tennant & Michael Sheen in the TV recreation of Pratchett's & Gaiman's awesome book, Good Omens.
Lianne (I had a lot to share this week): The Loch. It's terrible (especially in terms of how Steve Alten writes about women) but I like it for what it is -- suspense ridden monster stuff. I love it even more when I found out the movie The Meg is based on one of his books either.
Lianne & Andrew: GAME OF THRONES.
Obsessions
My new pair of pants. (Lianne)
Essays on Game of Thrones and how it ended. (Andrew)
