A review by karang
Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz

4.0

Most people you see and interact with are average (even though they should be called medians). With just a little bit different attitude, and small changes to your persona, you can beat the "averages". And guess what, these differences don't take a long time to nurture.

That's what this book is about. How to be different. How to be powerful. How to be confident. How to FEEL different. There's some easy tips that you can practice every day - walking a little faster for example. These don't require any new skill, money or trainers.

Schwartz gives detailed accounts of others who made some changes, and the results they got. But just like most self-help books, most of these details are unnecessary. They are fillers. The book could be half as many pages with the same content value.

Good real in my opinion. Obviously all of the content is not applicable after 50 years (on Snapchat or Facebook), there's still a lot you can learn from it. It will broaden your perspective on life, and help you succeed.
