No Hyperbole.
No Magic Bullet.
The Compound Effect is based on the principle that decisions shape your destiny. Little, everyday decisions will take you either to the life you desire or to disaster by default. Darren Hardy, publisher and editorial director ofSuccess Magazine, presents The Compound Effect, a distillation of the fundamental principles that have guided the most phenomenal achievements in business, relationships, and beyond.
This Mom’s Review:
I’ve read so many books about time management and priorities that I could open a library. Yet, looking at my life, you’d think I could care less about either. Most of the books and articles I’ve read give an outline for creating a routine or setting priorities. I’ve followed along and done these things. Yet, here I am.
Still overweight.
Still disorganized.
Still financially struggling.
Still indecisive as ever.
Still frustrated at so many things in my life.
What Makes This Book Any Different?
The author of this book not only tells you how to be successful in any area of your life, he gives you insight on how you got to be where you are now and how to take it out of reverse. As I read through the book, I began to understand why I haven’t lost any weight or accomplished any other goal in my life. He’s even shown me why I’ve met a goal — giving up pop, for one — only for it to be short-lived. He’s also shown me why I’ve fallen into such silly bad habits that I really don’t even care to continue in.
I now have the formula for success.
You may not like his book, as it is not an easy or quick fix. He’s honest about what we have to do for ourselves to get where we want to be. So, basically I’m finished with starting challenges, only to discourage myself with my own defeating habits. I will be going back through the book and applying it, so that I can get off this wagon of regrets. You may see future references to this book as I shape my life into what I want it to be.
There are free samples of the book’s worksheets at TheCompoundEffect.com, but they may not be as beneficial to you without reading the book first. Grab a copy of The Compound Effect online or from your local library. I’d love to hear what you think of it!
