“The only way to actually get peace on the inside is by giving up the idea of problems; accept.”
I knew nothing about Naval Ravikant and now I know he is a great and intriguing man.
At first I struggled to keep reading, but once I put the effort, I actually got into it.
Well, I wish I could have given a 5 to this book but it’s really just a collection of Naval thoughts and beliefs. And no matter how interesting I find them, the book is missing a narrative, a flow. I hope that one day we will all be able to read a book written by Naval himself.

“A calm mind, a fit body, and a house full of love.
These things cannot be bought.
They must be earned.”
There’s something to be said for practical wisdom, hard-won by experience and the trials of life. The part that deals with wealth is particularly essential to anyone venturing through the world of business and start-ups to better understand the dynamics of the games being played in our modern economy. In short, this book is a compass to what matters and where we should direct our aims and attention at.

This tech bro fever dream oscillates between Eric’s thoughts and the thoughts of his supposed super hero. This book sounds off like a business majors first encounter with pot, he grabs the pulpit and never let’s go.

The book can be used as a guide for virtually any situation in life and is worth referring to again and again.
"Easy choices lead to hard life, Hard choices lead to easy life".
I will keep this book on my nightstand and go through it every once in life, just to keep that one idea in mind.
Oh you can also get this book for free online: https://www.navalmanack.com/

A little meh for me. While there were spots to highlight — there was also a lot of classist and elitist BS, frankly. Defiant one that can be skimmed (which is one his key pieces of advice: read a lot. Read widely. Feel free to skim.
So there you have it.

Just a concise thesis on what Naval considers to be the most important lessons in life.
There's nothing overly new here. Although, that's not to say I didn't take anything away. It's full of a lot of great/common-sense aphorisms.
Overall, a great, light-ish philosophical read.
