While I will walk away from this book feeling more inclined to lead with compassion and kindness, I struggled to really agree that the author got a lot of his successes through the manifestation and intention setting that he mastered. While he did grow up in poverty and worked hard, a lot of the “I can’t accept no for an answer. I believe in myself” responses to others just reminded me of how often white men can get away with that kind of attitude. He eventually learned and acknowledges how arrogant that has come across, but it made it harder to accept those as real examples.
I found this book to be an interesting look at the way one man came to understand growth mindset, self-guided drive, and the way that compassion has to intermingle with these traits if anyone is going to really succeed. It's the kind of productive lateral thinking that I wish more people took part in. I, for one, will be trying to apply the lessons this book gives (while admittedly refusing to refer to it as "magic".)

A must read. Five stars. What more can I say? Life changing.

La primera mitad fue muy meh~, pero para el final me gustó mucho el cambio de actitud del autor.
El libro en sí te muestra la vida de Jim y de cómo Ruth cambió su vida, pero de que no se dio cuenta del verdadero significado de lo aprendido hasta mucho después. Aquí, Jim nos narra desde su infancia en la pobreza, hasta su gran logro como neurocirujano, pero también nos cuenta las lecciones de vida que aprendió a partir de sus errores.
Al principio me costó un poco adentrarme en la historia, ya que empieza un poco lento y pensé que el libro solamente te enseñaría a meditar. Sin embargo, mientras fui avanzando, sentí que mi mente fue cambiando a medida que el protagonista crecía a través de los años.

I enjoyed the first section of the book better than the next section. The first section was excellent and very compelling. It shows a very clear instruction for beginning and maintaining a meditation practice.
