Advanced Rhinocerology

Advanced Rhinocerology Scott Alexander has written two books about how people who succeed are like rhinos. The first book is Rhinoceros Success, and the other is Advanced Rhinocerology, which I just finished.

The books are a little cheesy and steeped in rhino metaphors. However, both books do serve their purpose as motivational reads. There are a lot of things that Alexander talks about that will challenge your traditional thinking when it comes to work. I will also tell you, that if you are in a government job and like it, don’t read this book. But if you are in a government job and hate it, read this book.

There were several little nuggets and challenges I am taking away from this short read and I would recommend both of these titles to you.
