From Brianna Wiest — international bestselling author with millions of copies sold, featured on TODAY, Oprah Daily, Forbes, Harper's Bazaar, and Psychology Today, and one of the most widely-read voices in personal development of the last decade. "101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think" is the book that started it all — first published in 2016, it has become one of the great perennial bestsellers of the social media era, spreading not through launch campaigns but through the oldest mechanism in publishing: one person finishing it and pressing it into the hands of everyone they know.
This is not the kind of book you read straight through and set down. It is the kind you keep.
101 Essays" is a collection of Wiest's most beloved and widely-read pieces of writing, assembled into a single volume that covers the full terrain of what it means to think well and live consciously. The pieces range across purpose, passion, happiness, cognitive bias, emotional intelligence, shadow psychology, relationships, solitude, creativity, daily routine, and the gap between what we think we want and what we actually need. Some were read by millions of people before they were ever collected here. Others have never appeared anywhere else.
