BOOK #2 Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink & Leif Babin (Our FREE Book Club for Problem Solvers - yes YOU are Invited! Learn with us!)
The book we will all be reading for February will be Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin.
If you read MINDSET with us in January and want to review it and express your insights on it, we have created a survey for that here. We will summarize this next month.
If you are just joining us on this problem solving journey, we highly recommend that everyone starts off with the book Mindset by Carol Dweck.
The good news is that we are only on book number two for the year.
For the book club we will take 2-6 weeks between books depending on the size of the book, the level of the material, and the time of year (breaks for holidays, etc).
We will finish one and go onto the next. Join in whenever you can.
Are you in?
Book Club Rules:
1. All are welcome who are on a quest to be better problem solvers.
2. Tell anyone you want, invite anyone you want as long as they strive to be problem solvers.
3. People not aligned with being problem solvers (so naysayers, haters, etc) will be asked to leave the group if they are retracting from the main goal of the group. This is a book club for the highly aligned. Discussions and arguments are welcome over topics, as long as the spirit is to find solutions.
4. We will be taking suggestions for new books that could make us all better problem solvers. Please make suggestions!
5. We will try to use comments and feedback and member reviews to enhance the learning experience.
A reminder: Our substack will always be free. This book club will always be free. And everything we work on will always be transparent.
Let’s make 2023 the year we learn to collaborate together better. Make community, better. Make trust between each other, better.
Join the book club Facebook Group here. It is titled the “BJJ Book Club” because it was started by a group of jiu jitsu practitioners first. (Jiu Jitsu, by nature, is problem solving).

Thanks for reading and Happy New Year!
As always the entire purpose of The Rationalist is to connect with other solutions-minded results-driven people like yourself! We strive to be a Society of Problem Solvers, and if you align with that we are happy that you’ve joined us. For over 3 billion years on this planet there were only single-celled organisms. Then one day they somehow learned to work together and make complex multi-celled creatures like you and me. Right now we are like those single-celled organisms. Our next evolution is finding how to work together, better… like we wrote about here.

COMMENTS ARE FOR EVERYONE AS A PLACE TO THINK-TANK SOLUTIONS. They will never be for paid-only subscribers and we will never charge a subscription.
I bought mindset but I havent started it yet because I am finishing the myth of normal by gabor mate. Nearly there though.
