WHY YOU SHOULD BE READING THIS BOOK?"Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one Some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and can't control that inner tranquillity and outer effectiveness become possible." - Epictetus (Ancient Greek Philosopher)Most motivational advice only works if the people receiving it are hyper talented or super lucky or both. But what about the Average Joe or Jane? For them, most advice that is peddled is simply not that useful.When the advice seems to work for someone and gives them statistically extremely extraordinary results that cannot be consistently replicated, it is usually because of survivorship bias (We, our society and the media focuses on the 1 person who succeeded following that advice, supposed to be proof that advice works, but ignore the 1000 others who failed following the exact same thing with the same sincerity.)Several years ago, I shared some motivational advice myself, through my movie Carve Your Destiny, through years of interviews with and "super achievers. and " (I'll talk about it more in the book). Now, don't get me wrong, a lot of principles that motivational books or movies talk about are good in principle and do work to a certain degree.HOWEVER, the world is uncertain. The world is ever changing. The world does not bend to popular advice, in fact popular advice is being pushed out to conform society to a set of beliefs that are taking people in a direction that clearly doesn't work for 99.9 percent of people.Compared to the popular, mainstream advice of today, this is a completely unconventional and contrarian guide to what I have discovered about business, career and u0026 life in the past 15 years.Instead of generic motivation, what the reader will get are my raw, unfiltered views on what I have learnt till now about how the world really operates, beyond conventional advice that often does more harm than good. The book gives the reader practical as well as philosophical spiritual suggestions on what they should be doing, especially if they are at a crossroads in life and questioning the usual and "wisdom and " dished out by the society.No matter how intelligent the human mind is, it is going to remain ignorant unless it acquires new knowledge. The caveat is that the knowledge should be accurate or at least closer to accurate than it is nonsense.This is why I will suggest you to avoid getting all your information and knowledge from popular media social media. Social media works on algorithms that manipulate the visibility of information.Similarly, barring some exceptional works, in general, books on the conventional "best seller" lists do not always contain the best information relevant for you! Only reading books on the best seller lists or purchasing the "popular" products means replacing social media algorithms for society promoted algorithms. Always dig deeper, if you wish to get closer to the truth!Even if you don't learn anything new from this book but if I can help you get rid of the WRONG knowledge that has misguided you for so long, I've done my job.If you read through its entirety, you will either totally love this book or totally hate it. One thing is for sure though, if you have a critical mind, you will certainly never look at society's advice on success and achievement the same way again.
