19th Book of 2024
I like the concept
of publishing the anthology which picks up the relevant chapters from the
bestseller books of the popular authors. Aleph Publications regularly publishes
such books where there’s a theme to the book which consists of the chapters
from popular books which helps us get the gist of what the book tries to convey
us. I have completed reading “Become An Achiever Right Now” which is a short
anthology consisting of the non-fictional chapters from self-help and
motivational books. The book is a part of the series called “A masterclass from
the Supergurus”. It consists of the chapters written by the prominent authors
like Dale Carnegie, James Allen, Kahlil Gibran, Napoleon Hill etc.
Achieving greatness
is not just about talent or luck; it requires boldness, resilience, and an
extraordinary work ethic. While many successful individuals share these
foundational traits, what truly sets them apart is their ability to think
strategically, adapt to challenges, and create a path unique to their vision.
In Become an Achiever Right Now, renowned self-help experts, philosophers,
poets, and writers—whose words have impacted millions—uncover the principles
that drive extraordinary success. Through their insights, readers will learn
practical methods for reaching their goals, even while navigating the everyday
hurdles and setbacks that life inevitably presents. This guide is more than
just inspiration; it's a toolkit for turning ambition into reality by embracing
both the triumphs and trials along the way.
There are few
chapters with which I was really able to resonate. I am mentioning few of them
below:
- The Dale Carnegie's theory of remembering names is such a small advice but the impact it can make is beautifully explained.
- The chapter on enthusiasm is amazing where author tries to explain how it must be generated from within rather than people's reaction. He also signifies how convicted people might be quiet but they have ample amount of excitement within them.
- The James Allen chapter in the start of session two is such a good reminder dat we are the parents of our thoughts and how we only create states and conditions in our life as we attract what our thoughts are.
- Orison Swett Marden speaks of how just manifestations wont bring results but a perseverance to bring them into realities will eventually convert things for us.
- A chapter before, another author very intelligently depicts how sun puts d same amount of energy on everything or how every drop in ocean has the same power of chemistry in it. Similarly, we should have the same passion for evrything we do or desire.
- Dale Carnegie's another chapter on criticism comes like a fresh breeze and motivated me like no other chapter until then. I am in just awe of this writer who uses real life examples to prove his philosophies.
- William George Jordan explains how consecration, concentration, conquest and conscience can make a man experience the real happiness which no one can take away from him/her.
- Few poems in between keep the book interesting with short fillers.
From the drawback
perspectives, I can only say that few of the chapters are written in a bit
tough language which few young readers might find hard to understand and grasp.
Rest, this is a great book to gift your young friends below 35. I rate this
book 4 stars out of 5.
Thanks!
