A little light (yet deep) reading

Summer may be behind us, but I'm sure we've all got time for a little reading inspiration πŸ“– . So I was delighted to see this recommended reading list from several VMware leaders πŸ’‘

My personal contribution was "Deep Work" by Cal Newport - a thought provoking read on how we should all focus on activities that maximise our expertise vs being distracted by more "shallow" tasks (spoiler alert ⚠ : if what you spend most of your time doing can be automated or taught to an intern in 90 days, make some changes. Fast!). Written a few years ago, its never more relevant than in today's AI-driven world.

Also, loved the wonderful range of recommendations from my peers, from Kahneman, Dweck and even Murakami πŸ‘

Enjoy!
