We are not born to be dull specialists. We are born to be micromasters.
Robert Twigger is an author, adventure traveller and apprentice micromaster. His first book, Angry White Pyjamas, about a year spent in a Japanese martial arts dojo, won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award and the Somerset Maugham Award. He has lectured on risk management, polymathics and leadership at Oxford Brookes Business School, Oxford University, the Royal College of Art, and to companies including P&G, Maersk shipping, Oracle computing and SAB Miller.
Brilliant. . . . mastering a series of small tasks has created
pockets of perfection through my day, and made me calmer and
happier in the process

Happiness'*
Micromastery is a triumph. A brilliant idea, utterly convincing,
and superbly carried through. I read it with delight, and instantly
vowed to put more conviction into the latest thing I'm trying...
You're on to a winner here
*Philip Pullman, author of the 'His Dark Materials' trilogy*
I couldn't stop telling people about this book. Wise and joyful, it
genuinely changed the way I thought about learning - and it left me
bursting to put it into action

Economy'*
