Review of How To Be Successful
Everyone wants to be successful in life. Many books provide stories of individual struggles and how they achieve success despite all the roadblocks. But we seldom get a book where the author puts his life story together, assembles interviews with the ones who inspired him to succeed, and shares the insights from each of these interviews. How To Be Successful: Think Like A Leader by M. Curtis McCoy is one of those unique books. The book is jam-packed with twenty-seven chapters and eight interviews, but every chapter is a life lesson and every interview is a soul-searching one.
The set-up of the book is incredible. The writer's journey from being a successful entrepreneur to a life coach and something beyond that is nothing short of praiseworthy. We are stuck with the book since some interviews are conducted with people at the top of their game. The answer to certain questions is so accurately related to us that we start pondering over it. Everyone has excuses for not doing things in a certain way, not achieving the desired results, and not building a solid friendship. Most of our lives thrive on excuses. But the book helps you discover the reason for these excuses and how to get rid of them.
Similarly, our attitude towards something or someone makes or damages our future. Having the right attitude will go a long way towards enabling us to achieve success. I loved all the interviews conducted by the author. However, the interview with Jeff "Biggs" Wobig is one of my favorite.
I could not find anything negative about the book. It is exceptionally well edited with no errors. This makes the journey more beautiful.
I will give the book 5 out of 5 stars. It is short, not preachy, and keeps us hooked. The chapters are life-changing, and the book will be my recommendation to everyone struggling with life goals. People who want a no-nonsense book with short but practical examples should get this one. It is also a must-read for entrepreneurs.
