	Not so sure about jack Canfield's book. I read it. It feels good but I cannot remember much about the book. Think and grow rich is different. Your will remember about the burning desire or the transmutation of sex, among other things. It's hard to say for sure because I read over 300 self help books. Yes I am a self help junkie. I didn't do well in my career though but i kept my job. I also got lucky in real estate. Earned some profits and rentals income. Good money. May not have happened without the books I read.

	Well I think Napoleon hill's writing has a certain level of intensity which will help you remember his points better. You can check out his Master keys to success book or law of success to learn more. In my opinion, 7 habits and mastery also do not focus much on taking action. Gtd is outdated already. There are so many apps and also AI which can help raise productivity.

	Trump won because he has been campaigning for 9 years. Harris lost because she campaigned for 7 weeks. While the reason is arguably not so simple, it actually is one of the main reasons.

	You can go to websites like Goodreads so that you can chronicle your self help journey. Once you are set on the path, you will start to read more books rather than putting them away.

Insights don't matter until you do something because of them. - 
	Well, if you are aiming to be in working programming job, you will need to sit down in front of a computer for hours so the book Deep Work will be more applicable for you.

	I usually write my notes and then after I finish reading, I will do a revised book summary or book review. You can also follow Brian Johnson's style. He summaries every book into five main points.

	The 21st century adaption of think and grow rich is somewhat different from the original. You can read that if you haven't done so. Someone who likes doing research and data analysis may gain more insights reading Deep Work by Cal Newport. But if you are interested in doing sales, then read books like Art of closing the sales.

	Here are some books which you can read when starting a new business: https://www.amazon.sg/100-Startup-Reinvent-Living-Create/dp/0307951529 https://www.amazon.sg/Lean-Startup-Entrepreneurs-Continuous-Innovation/dp/0307887898/ref=pd_aw_fbt_img_m_sccl_2/355-5197574-5757543?pd_rd_w=8IMwn&content-id=amzn1.sym.19faa695-6c08-414b-b347-38d89a6e9afa&pf_rd_p=19faa695-6c08-414b-b347-38d89a6e9afa&pf_rd_r=TZTD88YX83C9V8R72JXJ&pd_rd_wg=GVdDK&pd_rd_r=31ae04e3-455f-4fc8-aac8-778be878de49&pd_rd_i=0307887898&psc=1 https://www.amazon.sg/Solving-Procrastination-Puzzle-Concise-Strategies/dp/0399168125/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1HFDC4HDFHQO6&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ZgcOYZDwito5VwHilMqJ4j9jN_L1BBrMRGvCXGnRstXMzYD1b-R_rUtrT4LGxYXTCy2gYd2QXRUADXcQmwdnxrbxmLfjHR3cuYdlaWfgmMNv29vL1muQ2n0IbmJpCxXOR63eMriLDyAzyVMuSDy7f7g82aI_gONu4jMoqBIDtQa_UCHQdz1WlBTovaDQSymDnn-pKs8EevHg48q6Dnjlfw._6Z5Y1ywi6NbrO8YVWRz0Axzo7kcexQuOvFdERJp5VM&dib_tag=se&keywords=procrastination&qid=1732444994&sprefix=proceastin%2Caps%2C288&sr=8-3

	Well, it boils down to how wealthy you are. If you are insanely rich, you can reject some petty or fussy clients.

	Andrew's stuff will make you angry unless you become wildly successful. But most people won't be able to achieve that so they will remain angry.

	If you are struggling financially to make end's meet, your number one priority would be to earn money. Doing self help stuff is good but it doesn't earn you money in the short term. It may be helpful in getting you a job from job interview. If you already have a good amount of savings, then of course you can use this time to see if you can pursue your passion.

	There's another Mastery book called The Art of Mastery by Peter Ralston! I found the book at the library.
 - 
	The book by G Leonard is an old book by today's standard. It explains the processes on how to be a master. If you read up the life of Leonard, then you can probably tell that he's really a master at his craft and he has mastered his life to a high degree. The book Mastery by Robert Greene mostly showed that he's a good researcher and a good writer. It doesn't say much about his life. The book showed different examples of how other people achieved mastery. Although it contained many examples, the ideas may be scattered and people will still be lost on how to achieve mastery before or after reading the book.

	People go to university for the degree or certifications. If you don't need one, you can easily join an online course or private course to see what coming back to school is.
 - 
	You can read the book Indistractable to conquer distractions.

	It depends on your own definition but in mine, there is no number 1. For example, Lionel Messi is highly regarded to be the number 1 footballer in the modern era. But if there is a situation where the ball comes to him at a height and coming very fast, then someone like C.Ronaldo can run faster or head better than Messi so in that situation, C.Ronaldo is actually no 1.
 - 
	Depends on what you meant by world class. It's your own definition and perception of the word. If you want to be number one most charismatic person in the world, that's going to be near impossible. If you want to be top 5% in the world, that might still be possible.

	Use goodreads.com so that you can observe your reading journey. You will always find many other interesting books along the way amongst other good benefits.

Wow I am surprised Leo wrote that almost 7 years ago. His oldest video on YouTube was 12 years ago and he still remembered some stuff he said. Some people cannot even remember what they said a month ago or that they have changed their stance towards certain subject within a month. -

Yes being wise is knowing that you only have the present moment. Your past does not determine your future. Or rather, you have no past and no future.🤣 - 
	Some of her self help stuff were good but she still looks depressed and sad at times. Looks like she didn't integrate fully to become a full person despite doing so many shadow work.

	"Average" actually derives from the word age when people started wondering what's the age of the group many many years back. Everyone of us is 'average' no matter what you accomplish in life. There's not a single human being I know that manages to live beyond 200 years old. Let me know if you know of any real examples.
 - 
	If I were you, I would contemplate what actually went wrong? Did your company give you work to do but you told them that it's outside of your job scope? Or was your salary so high that they are unable to justify it for you anymore? Anyway it's always great to have some alone time. Time to think of your next moves too!

	Still, having experienced poverty or hunger before would make you empathize with people more than when compared to someone who live with a silver spoon.
