Book Summary
The book is a composite work by Darren Hardy, in which the persistence in doing seemingly simple and small things is emphasized, things that if done over a long period of time and there is no break between them, make a significant difference and this phenomenon is the thing which separates successful people from ordinary people. In this work, Hardy has inspired the readers that they do not need to go out of the framework and rules of their lives, but by being persistent in implementing their daily, monthly and annual plans, they will create a tremendous transformation in their lives.
He explains beautifully and sometimes in more detail that success belongs to those people who don't give up halfway and don't stop doing small and even very small things until they reach the result. He talks about the importance of writing down things and also about identifying undesirable behaviors and habits that people can change over time to achieve a very high sense of satisfaction. The good news is that you are not going to deal with difficult tasks in this book, but we should learn how to plan and pursue our goals in the long term, and it is not necessary to make life difficult and bitter this way.
Don't forget that prioritizing goals, that is, starting with the most important ones and then reaching the ones with lower importance, is also a very important point that should be considered. The main point is that good habits should be cultivated and undesirable behaviors should be eliminated bit by bit.
