Key Takeaways From The Magic Of Thinking Big

In the last few months, I listened to The Magic Of Thinking Big by David Schwartz.

Overall, this was a very motivating listen, with some great action points and areas to consider.

The book's overall message is that it takes a similar amount of effort to get a mediocre outcome (compromising) vs achieving what you actually want, but the main difference comes down to clear planning and intentions.

Here are some points/moments that stuck with me as I listened:

• You are a habit of people around you

• Psychological diet - what content and thoughts do you consume?

• Being a good worker to be a good leader

• Have to study everyone, how can you learn mathematics from one small book?

• A failure is a man who blundered but didn't find a way to capitalise on his experience

• Mistakes are the cost of education,

• Weakness addressing is another way to become a winner

• If you don't use goals you don't have a framework to grow with

• Nobody achieves more than they set out to

• Switching from something you don't like to do vs what you do like is using a high horsepower engine

• 5 ways we kill what we really want to do

• -Self depreciation

• -Security (itis)

• -Competition

• -Parents Blaming

• -Family Responsibility

• Improving Homelife:

• -Pay appreciation to little things family do

• -Once a week do something special as a house

• -Give an amount of undivided attention and time to family each day
