[Following is a volunteer review of "How To Be Successful" by M. Curtis McCoy.]
The book "How to be successful: Think like a leader" written by M. Curtis McCoy is a compilation of true stories and conversations. He started spending time with successful people who achieved growth in their life. Sharing his own experiences, inspiration, achievements, ups and downs, and the way he has recovered from his brain cancer.
He was young and living a successful entrepreneur life. He was suffering from brain cancer, he was just having 60-90 days left of his life. The doctor told his mom to make some memories by the time he was left with her. He was not able to live alone, or he can't remember small details. He was inspired to make a difference in as much life as possible but by the time he has left his ability to communicate. The way he fights against his brain cancer is shared briefly in this book.
How To Be Successful, Think Like A Leader is a book that can be shown as an example for a perfect guide on how to achieve success. Though my copy came with 185 pages and 27 chapters and comes under the self-help genre. This book revolves around interviews with various prominent personalities and some life lessons in between. The author accomplished his purpose in writing this book, which is to improve and motivate others. You can just flow through the book, everything is professionally organized and edited.
The information shared in this book is realistic and achievable. This book can clear our nagging doubts, which we have to achieve success. How to make friends and tips on improving your attitude are my favorite parts of this book. This book taught me many life lessons, and sometimes I just paused and pondered that I was wrong in this aspect and should improve here.
The only negative aspect of the book that I found is the lack of backup to support claims on studies and research about certain things. Also, I think the inclusion of praise seems biased to me. Most of the praises came from the author's family for example his mom Connie Wyatt, and his good friend, Paul B. Watson. Besides, the book is fascinating, but you can't read longer than 12 pages at a stretch, it's common with every non-fiction book.
The book has no profanity, no grammatical and no spelling errors, everything is professionally edited and lined up perfectly. It's very informative, heartfelt, and easy to read. As I mentioned few aspects as negative points, hence I give it 3 out of 4 stars. Hence, I recommend this book to people who are enthusiastic about developing themselves, who need an external impulse to drive their life, who are in chaos in defining success, school kids, and igniting young minds. Just go through the preface, nobody can derail you from reading this book. After reading this book, for sure, you are going to get your personal meaning of success.
