How to Deal with Adversity by Christopher Hamilton

3.0

I noticed that some of the bad reviews commented about how Christopher didn't bring up actionable steps to his list of greatest/most common adversity in life. In his defense, he did disclaimed that this book is not about solutions but an intention to introduce new thoughts to the reader from interesting perspectives that actually were not naturally thought about but makes sense. This is an example of an attitudinal effort to pick up skills and knowledge, and if i understand correctly, it is based on the assumption that the solutions will come customized to each individual when you gain something from the training.
On the basis that he is meant to introduce new thoughts and ideas, I think this is a great compilation of perspectives accompanied with analogies for illustration. I think he did a great job.
This could be an ebook issue, but I thought the organisation of content could have been much better. Anecdotes and analogies are just splashed everywhere without enough order, and this really affected my personal experience of reading this. book.. Also, I was surprised that the idea of self worth, identity and achievements was not talked about in detail in this book, which could have enlightened many in our current generation.
