Summary of Steve Sims's Bluefishing
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I grew up in London as the son of a brick mason. I hated bricklaying, and I was glad that it was my start in life because it gave me a rock-solid work ethic. I learned that hard manual labor gives you an edge. #2 I had a family that told me, No, no, no, that’s not us. We’re this end of town, those people live at that end of town. So, they hunkered down and did their work, never looking up. #3 I was 19 years old and worked as a construction laborer. I was afraid of boredom, not hard work. I was working more hours than I ever did in construction, but I was so hungry for new experiences that I didn’t care. #4 We are constantly taught that we can’t do something or another. The average toddler is told no more than four hundred times a day. We are constantly being taught what is right and what is wrong, and we are constantly being told not to do things that might make us look dumb.

Little Bets
“An enthusiastic, example-rich argument for innovating in a particular way—by deliberately experimenting and taking small exploratory steps in novel directions. Light, bright, and packed with tidy anecdotes” (The Wall Street Journal). What do Apple CEO Steve Jobs, comedian Chris Rock, prize-winning architect Frank Gehry, and the story developers at Pixar films all have in common? Bestselling author Peter Sims found that rather than start with a big idea or plan a whole project in advance, they make a methodical series of little bets, learning critical information from lots of little failures and from small but significant wins. Reporting on a fascinating range of research, from the psychology of creative blocks to the influential field of design thinking, Sims offers engaging and illuminating accounts of breakthrough innovators at work, and a whole new way of thinking about how to navigate uncertain situations and unleash our untapped creative powers.
America's Bilingual Century
How can Americans make our country stronger, kinder, smarter? By marshaling our enviable can-do ethic and learning another language. We can do it, no matter what our age: author Steve Leveen chose Spanish as his adopted language in midlife. America's Bilingual Century is filled with tips for learning a language, some mechanical--like changing your phone and laptop settings to your adopted language--and some philosophical. For instance, start by having a place in your life where you'll use the language, Steve says. The "where" makes the "how" more attainable. And recognize that, as with any adoption, you do it for love, and for life--so don't fret when you're not fluent in five months. If you...

Go for Stupid
"What would you achieve if you weren't afraid of being laughed at? In the age of "gotcha" culture, people are terrified to do anything that might be laughed at. Steve Sims is the exact opposite. In Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals, Steve teaches you how to ignore what everyone else thinks and go for big, stupid, ridiculous goals. From organizing a private dinner in front of Michaelangelo's David to securing a tour of SpaceX led by Elon Musk himself, his accomplishments always start with the same questions: How far can I take this? What would make this a stupid achievement? Steve examines famously stupid goals in history, the key habits of successful people, and lessons from his own career to help you let go of your fear and get out of your own way. If you do something amazing, you will be ridiculed until you are revered. Stop overthinking and go for ridiculous, stupid goals. Once you "go for stupid," you open the door to the life you always dreamed about."--

Electric Utility Resource Planning
Most people—including many legislators, regulators, and other decision makers in the electric utility industry—have misconceptions about how electric utilities really "work" and plan for the future.

This explanation will show readers that both expected and counterintuitive results can occur (i.e., conservation might result in higher air emissions, or lowering cost...
