Mission or Piece of Mind

I recently found myself reading or listening to a book that I would never pick up myself from any shelf; JHT - Mission or Piece of Mind. A famous Finnish (withdrawn already) rap artist's book. I don't listen to his music, never even liked it, but the e-book library suggested this to me, and once I read the introduction, I thought, why not. And I must admit that the book was very good, and why it resonated that much was that, despite his general appearance as a rap artist, he has really given much thought to many things. Most of the insights and realizations he made can be directly translated from his world to the scientific or academic world. The topics were simple, from making mistakes and accepting them; being ambitious, but humble and patient in order to achieve something; to balancing how much hard work is required to be successful, and how many of us are willing to pay that price. I think it is only in Finnish at the moment, but if you can understand, I can highly recommend it as summer holiday reading.
