Book notes I've taken.

I'm on a pilgrimage to read books by the greatest minds in the world. You may use these notes as pre-read materials before deciding to read the whole book, but they absolutely shall not be treated as the summary of the books—they barely are.

Ego Is the Enemy

Ego, and the constant need to seek validation, are indeed the enemy of relationship, goal, family, love, and even wealth. Worst of all, it forbids progress and self-development.

What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

Excellent advice for employees of any ranks, especially management. I make sure that I re-read the 20 flaws every yearly to remind myself not to ever (accidentally) commit these flaws to my dear co-workers

Smartcuts

Shane laid out the nine critical ingredients for rapid success, with plenty of real-life examples. Contrary to popular belief, hard work does not always pay off.

Your Music and People

Derek’s words always resonate with me. This book is tailored for musicians, but it packs a lot of excellent advice for non-musicians on personal relationships, business, money, marketing, and more.

This Is Marketing

A good guide on considerate and permission marketing. For a long-term success, market by providing real values.
