The primary focus of the book is how scarcity, whether it’s in terms of money, time, social contact, or other resources, influences our behavior. What we sometimes perceive as incompetence, laziness, indifference, or any other negative traits used to describe someone’s behavior could be a consequence of their limited bandwidth due to scarcity.

A good book to start the year 2022 with!

In the last couple of months, it has become an almost impossible task to have a peaceful gathering with friends or family. The multitude of lockdowns has made it impossible to meet and even when we meet it seems like an event to dread where Vaccination and Government policy seems to be the dominant topic. What starts as a discussion often turns into a yelling match between some and leaves everybody else frustrated. Think again is a must-read for anyone who thinks that there is only one right answer, or only one way things have to be done.

I enjoyed reading the book and will pause, listen and reconsider both in personal and professional life.
