MOPP E54 - Thomas Boivin, A Structured Way for Playing World Class Poker

This book teaches readers to think like non-conformist minds by questioning, challenging, and creating new rules for their lives. It argues that many of our beliefs and practices are based on outdated 'Brules' (bullsh*t rules) that limit our potential. The book provides a revolutionary 10-point framework blending computational thinking, integral theory, modern spirituality, evolutionary biology, and humor to help readers shed limiting beliefs and achieve an extraordinary life. The framework is based on Lakhiani’s personal experiences, his work with Mindvalley, and interviews with influential figures like Elon Musk, Richard Branson, and Arianna Huffington.

Atomic Habits by James Clear provides a practical and scientifically-backed guide to forming good habits and breaking bad ones. The book introduces the Four Laws of Behavior Change: make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy, and make it satisfying. It also emphasizes the importance of small, incremental changes (atomic habits) that compound over time to produce significant results. Clear discusses techniques such as habit stacking, optimizing the environment to support desired habits, and focusing on continuous improvement rather than goal fixation. The book is filled with actionable strategies, real-life examples, and stories from various fields, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their habits and achieve personal growth.

In 'Awareness', Anthony de Mello combines Christian spirituality, Buddhist parables, Hindu breathing exercises, and psychological insight to challenge readers to wake up from the go-go-go world of illusion. The book, composed of short chapters and lectures, encourages readers to become aware of their thoughts, actions, and motivations. De Mello argues that true happiness and freedom come from dropping illusions and living in the present, free from the constructs of culture, conditioning, and fear. He emphasizes the need to observe oneself, understand negative feelings, and practice detachment to achieve a more authentic and fulfilling life.
