The Great Experiences of Reading Book Review

Hello, my great reader !!! Welcome back to my blog. In the previous week, I had completed a review of my book about "How Successful People Think". This week, I will not review the book anymore, but I will share my experience when I read other people's book reviews. Well, there were 6 reviews of books that I have read about, including:

1. My brief history of time by Stephen Hawking

When I read this book review, I got many moral messages. Stephen Hawking recounted his quite bitter life experience when he was convicted of suffering from ALS. However, he remained optimistic and never gave up on living his life even as he continued to create important discoveries which until now still have a consistent existence.

2. Sherlock Holmes: 12 Best Stories

When I read it, I think this book tells 12 experiences of a world detective who was very successful in solving his cases. So, not only through educational-themed books, we get new knowledge, but through any genre book including this book, we can also find a new experience which certainly contains a knowledge that we did not know before.

3. Think and Grow Rich's

When reading this book, at first I was confused and a little shocked because I saw so many reviews of this book and there was no difference that indicated the change of Chapter. But after I read one by one, it turned out that the review of this book was very detailed. Futhermore, I still remember Napoleon Hill's statement in this book, "Desire is the starting point of all achievement. Anyone can achieve anything they want if they have a strong enough burning desire". I really like that statement because that statement makes me more enthusiastic to achieve what I want.

4. The Power of Habit

In this book, I can find out how to control my behavior. In this book, I learned that a person's behavior is influenced by several aspects, namely cues, routine and reward. Well besides that, changes in behavior can also be done if within ourselves there are desires and beliefs.

5. A Million Dolar Dream by Marry Riana

Oncemore, I got a book in which there were motivations that should be applied to me in my life. After I read this book review, I was very curious to read this book as a whole. The point is this book really motivates me to be better in the future.

6. Scouting for Boy

I highly recommend this book for my friends who like adventure or like scouting. However, when I read a review of this book I guessed how it was understood because the author did not explain it clearly so this book is still marked with a big question in my head.

From all the stories of my experience, I can give the conclusion that by reading, our insights will continue to grow and develop. I myself feel it. I get new knowledge, whether it's motivation, reflection, etc. I also got another new vocabulary that I didn't know before. So be diligent in reading guys !!! That's all from me. I hope it will be useful for us. Amiin. Thank you for reading my blog. Cheerio !!!!

The Last Book Review about How Successful People Think

Hello my great reader!!! Welcome back to my blog. On the previous week, I've already explained the 3rd, 4th and 5th chapters of book "How successful people think." On this week, I would like to continue  my book review until finished to the last chapter. It's about six chapters which I will explain on this blog. Let's check it out!

The Review :

6.    Explore      Possibility      Thinking

In this chapter, the author reveals that People who embrace possibility thinking are capable of accomplishing tasks that seem impossible because they believe in solutions. In this case, if you open yourself  up to the possibility of thinking, you open yourself up to many other possibilities because the possibility thinking also gives you the energy to keep thinking positively and optimistically in broadening your horizons and dreaming of bigger dreams. However, Sometimes you don’t want to get into positive thinking, that’s OK. Just eliminate all the negative thoughts from your mind, and whatever’s left will be fine. “If you want to achieve something, give yourself permission to believe that it is possible.” When you believe you can do something difficult and it turns out that you succeed then many doors open for you. Thus, it’s really true: people who believe they can’t, don’t. But if you believe you can, you can! That’s the power of possibility thinking.

7.    Learn from Reflective Thinking

Reflective thinking is like the Crock-Pot of the mind. It encourages your thoughts to simmer until they’re done. When you reflect, you are able to put an experience into perspective. You are able to evaluate its timing and you are able to gain a new appreciation for things that before went unnoticed. Reflective thinking also encourages you to go back and spend time pondering what you have done and what you have seen so that you can put ideas and experiences into a more accurate context. When you’re going through this process, your goal is to reflect so that you might learn from your successes and mistakes, discover what you should try to repeat, and determine what you should change. It is always a valuable exercise. By mentally visiting past situations, you can think with greater understanding.

8.    Question  Popular Thinking

In this chapter, you’ll find many of the ideas in this book go against popular thinking. The problem with popular thinking is that it doesn’t require you to think at all. Popular thinking sometimes means not thinking and brings only average results so that popular thinking offers false hope. It has often proved to be wrong and limiting. Questioning it isn’t necessarily hard, once you cultivate the habit of doing so. The difficulty is in getting started. If you want to become a good thinker, then start preparing yourself for the possibility of becoming unpopular. For becoming unpopular, you must think before you follow. it’s mean that you should consider anything before you decided to follow that. You shouldn’t be messy. Then you should learn to appreciate how others think. T o do that, you must continually expose yourself to people different from yourself. In addition, you must challenge your own thinking by questioning it continually and trying new things in new ways.

9.    Benefit  from Shared Thinking

In this chapter, the author tells about the comparison between shared thinking and solo thinking. The Author mentions such beneficial of shared thinking such as shared thinking is faster, stronger, and more innovative than solo thinking, shared thinking brings more maturity and returns greater value than solo thinking, etc. Futhermore, shared thinking is the only way to have great thinking because through shared thinking we can compare, integrate and innovate some ideas  into a very great unity of ideas.

10. Practice  Unselfish Thinking

In this chapter, the author reveals that unselfish thinking delivers a return greater than any other kind of thinking because it gives several benefits that will be gotten by someone when they practiced it. The highest level of unselfish thinking comes when you give of yourself to another person for that person’s personal development or well-being. If you can learn to think unselfishly and become a giver, then it becomes easier to develop many other virtues such as gratitude, love, respect, patience, discipline, etc. Futhermore, if you succeed in transferring kindness to others, you get extraordinary inner satisfaction. With that satisfaction, extraordinary energy arises to think and do more and more.

11. Rely  on     Bottom-Line Thinking

This chapter is the last chapter of the book which I've reviewed. As you explore the concept of bottom-line thinking, every activity has its own unique bottom line. If you have a job, your work has a bottom line. When you know your bottom line, it becomes much easier to know how you’re doing in any given area. It is a compass to show the direction of your journey so you always think about how to achieve your goals and targets. It will also prevent you from unnecessary steps. Bottom-line thinking also makes it possible for you to measure outcomes more quickly and easily. It gives you a benchmark by which to measure activity. It can be used as a focused way of ensuring that all your little activities are purposeful and line up to achieve a larger goal.

That’s all my book review about “how successful people think” and Finally I am so glad to say it because I could finished my review about all chapters of this book. I hope it will be usefull for us. Amiin.  Thank you for reading my blog. Cheerio!!!!
