Book notes from Game changers or what I learned about what leaders, innovators and mavericks do to win at life from Dave Asprey
I was at Chapters a few weeks ago looking for a book for a co-worker and as I was looking through the shelves, saw this book on the shelf. The Chapters was a smaller store so there weren’t multiple copies of each book — really just one or two copies of books on the shelves but this one stood out because of the name (what’s a game changer? it’s something that completely changes the game for someone playing it so that they have an advantage) and because of the author (Dave Asprey is the author of the bulletproof diet and popularized bulletproof coffee).
I’ll be completely honest, I started off thinking about how great of an idea bulletproof coffee was but when I talked to one friend in medical school, she told me that consuming that amount of fat was not going to be good for anyone. I stopped putting butter into my tea, I unsubscribed from Dave’s podcast and he was off my radar for a while.
But the book and it’s premise caught my attention and since I do not discriminate against any book, I picked up a used copy and was really glad that I did (though again, to be fair, I don’t think I’ve ever not liked a book that I picked up).
