Reading List for Freaks


Entrepreneurs as Freaks?

 Chris Brogan, whose blog I follow daily, is promoting his latest book, The Freaks Shall Inherit the Earth: Entrepreneurship for Weirdos, Misfits, and World Dominators. 

 He also offered this reading list "for freaks" that looks very interesting. 
Ender’s Game. Forget the movie. This is how to think differently.
Escape from Cubicle Nation. A classic. A must.
Everything I Know – if you know Paul Jarvis, he’s a freak. No really.
Everything that Remains. If you’re not following the Minimalists, you need to rectify that.
Choose Yourself. Not only is James Altucher quoted and interviewed frequently in relationship to this book, he’s one of the most successful freaks I know.
Unlabel. Learn to be a freak from one who has made over a billion dollars from being himself.
I Shouldn’t Be Telling You This. Still have to work for the man? Kate White’s brilliant. She’s a ninja of what to know.
The In Between. Not sure anyone’s ever called Jeff Goins a freak. He is. Best of ways.
Die Empty. I told Todd Henry I hated the title to this book. Like a lot of things in life, Todd is right and I’m wrong. I love Todd Henry. I kind of stalk him.

Where is the Middle East Heading? On April 28-29, 2018, Al Jazeera held its 12th Forum providing an opportunity for leading scholars and other experts to discuss a variety of topics affecting the Arab world.  The website for the forum,  @aljazeeraform , provides additional information and links to the videos of each session.  You can follow the Twitter coverage at  #AJForum . As I noted in my  first post  in this series, I am working from my notes, so I apologize in advance if I incorrectly paraphrase the remarks of any speaker. I was also reliant on the quality of the translation services and their audibility. Therefore, I am happy to make any needed edits to this summary. For summaries of the other sessions see: Opening Session Session 1: The Gulf Crisis Session 2: Iran and the Gulf Session 3: Change in the Region? Session 5: Palestine and the "Deal of the Century" Session 6: The Media During Times of Crisis Session 7: Where is the Gulf Headed? Session
