The Ride of a Lifetime People apparently had high expectations for Robert “Bob” Iger and his business/CEO memoir “The Ride of a Lifetime.” I did too. I had some inexplicably good feeling about this book. And that’s why I made maximum effort to avoid reading any (both domestic and foreign) reviews of the book until…
You Were Born Rich “Zig Ziglar might be the master of motivation, Mark Viktor Hansen (Chicken Soup for Soul) the master of storytelling, Anthony (Tony) Robbins can be the guru of personal development, but Bob Proctor is the master of thinking (thought). Bob Proctor collects thoughts like Imelda Marcos collected shoes. He connects them together…
Atomic Habits – Why Small Changes Make a Big Difference On one occasion (this year) I subjected myself to a kind of “test.” And that was not eating refined sugar, i.e., sweets, for a month. My motive was to prove to some people (i.e., clients) that it’s absolutely doable… and it was… and it wasn’t…
The Wolf of Wall Street (movie) Now this is a different story… I’m guessing you remember my review of the book The Wolf of Wall Street. A perfectly solid book, quite educational in many ways. Now the question is: can the film be better than the book? My answer is — yes. In this case,…
Do you know what common thread runs through names like Norman Vincent Peale, Tony Robbins, or the now-cult documentary/book “The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne, as well as dozens of other successful individuals in the world of business, motivation, and whatnot? They all share one thing in common: a small, blue booklet that you’ve probably…
(deep sigh): Haaaaaaaaa…… The 10X Rule…… what to say/write when you encounter people like Gary Vaynerchuk, Brendon Burchard, Dan Lok, Robert Kiyosaki, Tim Ferriss, Tony Robbins…or Grant Cardone? What is truth, and what is illusion when it comes to these people? Are they individuals who first achieved some success, then began to (media) expose…
One of the most-read texts on this blog (in fact, this text is still the champion in terms of the number of visits) is the review of Mark Manson’s book “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck”. This book ended up on my shelf known as the “Shelf with books that must be…
Uh, the situation is not easy either for the film we’re discussing today or for me. How to stay objective in a review of a film from which you have great expectations, simply because it’s made based on one of your favorite books? But, what must be done, is not hard. 🙂 Let’s…
This book and I go way back… there’s a lot of history there. How much, I wonder… about seven or eight years? Maybe a year more? When I first saw the book “Way of the Peaceful Warrior”, its title (including the cover) caught my attention, as did some quotes from the book on the…
Okay, shortly after finishing Chuck Palahniuk’s “Fight Club,” I decided to (re)watch this cult film from 1999, starring Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, and Helena Bonham Carter in the lead roles, riding on the waves of impressions from the book. You can read about the plot in my book review, but for that small percentage…
