Book Review [167] : Atomic Habits
Few years back I saw one example of Chinese bamboo told by Rahul Dravid. For years Chinese bamboo seems the not growing but it once comes out it reaches 90 feet height within few weeks. It's a great learning lesson from this story. Your foundation decides how long you will go and habits play a great role in building your foundation.
So develop good habits, continue with them and continue deleting bad habits. Have a good time.
Highly Recommended (10/10)

Book Review [166] : The Courage To Be Disliked
'The Courage to be disliked' by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga is a book inspired by Adlerian Psychology. I bought it from Amazon after seeing it as a best sellers and 'Over three million copies sold worldwide' written on top of it. I have read many self help books but i will not rate this book in my top 5 books.
I gave sufficient time and energy to read this book but it failed to inspire me. I think i am at fault in getting some thing meaningful from this book. The few concepts that can be useful in one's life:
- Separation of tasks
- Feeling of community
- Having confidence in others
- Horizontal relationships
- We always have a choice to chose our destiny
- Cribbing over past is not right
- Everything is a complex of inter personal relationship problems
- Praise and Rebuke are manipulative tools
- Respecting boundaries are important
This book is written in a dialogue form and this has put me off. At many places it reeks of boredom and banal megalomania.
Time Pass Read (5/10)
