The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz (1987)
, 4 Oct 2014
This is an old book that is still fresh to read in our modern globalised and humanly disconnected era.This is a book to help you to stop self-sabotaging your personal and professional life, and channel your inner energy in the right direction. The advice is very simple, still powerful and useful. If you stop your inner critic, your inner devil's advocate, your inner negativity, you will approach your day and life more relaxed and ready to make the most of any social or professional situation. It builds self-confidence, too.
The author does not give magic recipes for success, but very grounded and common sense advice. This is not a miracle book, and does not support or justify whimsical nonsensical wishful thinking. It is matter of fact, entertaining and very useful. One of those few books that you actually want to highlight!
The book is written in a very approachable entertaining way, with summaries of the info at the end of each chapter, which will come handy after your first reading of the book to remind yourself of the main points discussed in each chapter.
To be honest, many of the super-duper books lately published on charisma, business success and self-help relate directly in content to this book, no matter the approach they take or if they quote this book or not.
Read it, re-read it, underline it, try to follow the author's advice so you can approach any challenge in your life with the best possible attitude. It will not make miracles, but it will help you to relax inside out, feel like a star, and create the best possible version of yourself.
