“Man’s Search For Meaning” by Victor Frankl is an amazing but sad book. It is one of my favorite books of the 20th century. Victor Frankl miraculously survived unimaginable horrors during the Holocaust but never gave up. This man was a role model and a hero.

Today we will be looking at  5 Lessons Learnt From The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham

The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham - 5 Lessons Learnt

In 1949 the book 'The Intelligent Investor' was published by Benjamin Graham, an iconic book on investment psychology and long term gratification - both key traits for astute investors.

The book focuses on longer-term and more risk-averse approaches to investing with Graham's focus on investments, based on research rather than speculations which are based on predictions.

Graham comments:

“In the short term the market is a voting machine; in the long term it is a weighing machine.”

The Art of War by SUN TZU - 20 Lessons Learned

Hi, welcome to this podcast: Famous Book Lessons & Summaries

Today we will be looking at 20 Lessons Learned from the book "The Art of War " by SUN TZU

The Art of War by SUN TZU - 20 Lessons Learned

#1 Unprepared Loses

You have to live and finish the war with every detail in your mind. There should be no room for surprises. During the battle, your time and other resources will be limited. If you don’t know which resource to use for how long, you’re stuck in the middle of nowhere. The party with the plan is strong. The side that has a good plan is the side that is close to victory. Plan the week, the day, the hour, even the minutes.

What I learned:

1 - Know your limits and be resourceful

2 - Know that being resourceful is more important than abundance

3 - Strike only where it is necessary (Focus on one point at a time without losing the big picture)

4 - Only execute with a clear motive

Hi, welcome to this podcast: Famous Book Lessons & Summaries

Today we will be looking at “Ikigai

Ten laws of the Ikigai learned from the Ogimi elders 

“Ikigai The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life”

By Hector Garcia and Francesc Miralles

When you look up ikigai online, you will find that this Japanese concept of finding your purpose also means “a reason for being”. The term combines two words: iki, which means “life” and kai (voiced out as gai), which means “worth”. It pertains to the source of value in someone’s life, something that gives a person a sense of direction and happiness. 

Japanese psychologist Michiko Kumano (2017) has said that ikigai is a state of wellbeing that arises from devotion to activities one enjoys, which also brings a sense of fulfillment.

Limitless by Jim Kwik -  10 Powerful Thoughts

Hi, welcome to this podcast: Famous Book Lessons & Summaries

Today we will be looking at  10 Powerful Thoughts From the Best Book "Limitless" by Jim Kwik

Limitless by Jim Kwik -  10 Powerful Thoughts

Limitless is about how to reach your full potential, which Kwik views as basically limitless. The author is a renowned brain expert, so this book looks at optimizing your brain and mind.

I will start off with a quote by Kwik:

“If you are struggling to reach a goal in any area, you must first ask: Where is the limit? Most likely, you’re experiencing a limit in your mindset, motivation, or methods—which means that it’s not a personal shortcoming or failure pointing to any perceived lack of ability.” – Jim Kwik #limitless #jimkwik

Here are the 10 Powerful Thoughts From the Best Book "Limitless" by Jim Kwik

“One of my core beliefs is that human potential is one of the only infinite resources we have in this world. Most everything else is finite, but the human mind is the ultimate superpower—there is no limit to our creativity, imagination, determination, or ability to think, reason, or learn. Yet this resource is also among the least tapped.” – Jim Kwik #limitless #jimkwik
