Yesterday I read this motivating book called \u2018Whatever you think, think the opposite<\/a>\u2019 by Paul Arden. This book has cleverly put everything together – encouraging quotes, catchy graphics, innovative photography, and eye catching typography. Paul Arden combined brilliant visuals with his concise writing and conveyed the message very beautifully. Author\u2019s writing is very sharp, succinct, brisk, and original.<\/p>\n

Initially when I grabbed this book from the shelf, I thought it might be about how to think in a different way; from different perspective. I have finished this pocket size book in one sitting but personally I felt that It is more about his own experience, own stories, and dreadful thinking at some point but ultimately I have observed honesty in his writing. Overall approach of this book is doing things differently without being uneasy. <\/p>\n

Few things stayed with me \u2013 Great people have great egos and that\u2019s the reason makes them great \u2013 says Paul. It is nothing bad to have ego; think that you are better than others; all great people have it then why can\u2019t you? Another was to ask for a slap in the face instead of pat in a back, if you think you did something wrong \u2013 an outstanding photograph with this quote. Also, \u2018people steal your ideas\u2019 quote with the torn paper graphic is brilliant. As if like someone is torning a paper from a book to steal that idea.<\/p>\n

Some people have ability to write in such a way that made you think and you start tracking your life, even if it just for 5 minutes. You feel inspired to think deeper. This book is a perfect example of this gist. Sometimes we need that little push; referring to such quotes gives you that push you needed in your life to keep going and bring out best in you. <\/p>\n

Generally speaking – This book<\/a> is worth a quick read!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
