Carl给中学生推荐的书和博客

To 所有参加《大学生和中学生谈心会》的家长,
As promise, Carl把给中学生推荐的书和博客send了给我,大家可以send给小朋友们,我看了一下,他介绍的以下博客都是年轻人写的,也许小朋友们会感兴趣,在此仅供大家参考。
还有两个PDF书,文件较大,不好attach,有需要的,请留言吧,我单独给你send过去。

Books & Blogs:  
Sebastian Marshall - Read his book, Ikigai. Watch his YouTube videos. Read his blog at sebastianmarshall.com  
Cal Newport - His blog is studyhacks. He's the crazy 29-year-old B.S., M.S. pH.D professor at Georgetown. Incredible. Read his books (search him on Amazon) and his blog at calnewport.com/blog  
Scott Young - Good friend of Cal's. Similar life philosophy. 25 years old, entrepreneur. Very into achieving more and living life to the fullest. I had coffee with him in SF and he was a great conversationalist and very insightful.scotthyoung.com/blog  
Ben Casanocha - Young entrepreneur. Ridiculously accomplished for his age and spirit. Read his blog too. Very insightful. http://ben.casnocha.com/  
Leo Babauta - Writer of ZenHabits.net. In 2005 he was overweight, a chain smoker, bad family life, in huge debt, no money. He decided to reform his life. Since then he has written 3 books, ran many many marathons, quit smoking, got out of debt, sold his TV and Car to live a minimalist life, has a great family life. He writes about his journey. One of the most popular blogs (as named by Times) on the internet.   
Max Marmer - 20 year old Stanford Dropout. Unique and mature perspective on life. Talks and writes like a 60 year old.   
Malcolm Gladwell - Blink, The Tipping Point, writer of economic psychology. Def worth a read -- one word of caution though: his work is kinda pop science. He's a great writer and very intelligent, but I've read criticism of his work that claims he isn't as rigorous about the studies he selects as possible. 还有两个PDF书,文件较大,不好attach,有需要的,请留言吧,我单独给你send过去。
