most useful book for keeping me on the path towards success

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2024

Verified Purchase

This is a wonderful book, and it distills down several key things to follow on your path to success. It reminds me to keep on the path daily, which is actually effortless once I incorporate habits. Good habits. It helps me to realize the bad habits I need to discard and some habits which I need to develop. It’s Tony Robbins light in a way. I find it an excellent way to help keep me on the path, day-to-day, even moment a moment. Following this book greatly increases my chances of personal success, and all areas of life, and especially personal happiness, and satisfaction with myself, knowing that I did the best I could. I highly recommend for anyone and any line of work you find yourself in.

The Compound Effect - A great book

Title and Author: The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy

Synopsis of Content:
Darren Hardy, successful businessman, public speaker and editor of Success Magazine provides in The Compound Effect a careful study of those things we must do and those we must avoid to be successful. He teaches how small efforts, repeated over time, create compound effects - that is - they build into a much larger accomplishment than one might realize as one does the small things each day.

Likewise the compound effect also works to defeat us if we fail to do the right things each day or do the wrong things each day. That one candy bar once a week for example, adds pounds to us over the course of a year. That one apple each day can help foster greater health over time.

Hardy begins by describing how the compound effect works both to our benefit and our detriment and demonstrates how crucial it is to be aware of what we are doing and take control of the things that matter. It is about forming and sustaining good habits and defeating bad ones.

He then explains how the choices we make each day influence and drives our outcomes. He describes how positive habits build us up and create long term achievement while bad habits do the opposite.

Next he discusses momentum - how small steps taking deliberately and consistently over time build momentum which then makes it all easier and more effective over time. He explains the power of rhythm and consistency in what we do.

Finally he discusses the power of influence upon us, both good and bad, from the people with whom we associate, the things we choose to do, the way we spend our time, etc.

The book also includes various resources that you can obtain access to on-line which can deepen your experience and put the lessons learned into practice.

Some have criticized The Compound Effect as just another version of the same old ideas found in a thousand success or self-help books. In a sense this is true and Hardy, who is an unapologetic fan of Jim Rohn, cites Rohn's observation that the principles of success are never new - they are time tested and ancient. We fail to benefit from them to the extent we fail to understand them or more often to the extent we fail to heed them.

What Hardy does in this book is repackage these ancient ideas in a more modern discussion and format using helpful illustrations and his own unique perspective about how they have worked for him and many others. There is always value in this. The more we can see how others have learned from these principles and applied them the more we will understand how we can do the same.

Hardy was raised in a very disciplined manner by a rather harsh father who was a no nonsense sports coach. With this background he naturally is comfortable with the kinds of self-discipline he urges upon the reader to achieve at a higher level. For those who are lazy or just dislike the rigor of self-discipline this book may not offer much. For anyone who is willing to do the work this book is an excellent introduction into what works.

Usefulness:
Anyone who is serious about improving their lives and their outcomes can benefit from this book. It is an easy read and contains a lot of practical lessons on how to implement these ideas.

Readability/Writing Quality:
The book is well written and easy to read. It is well organized and contains enough repetition to be instructive but not so much as to be redundant.

Notes on Author:
Darren Hardy was a self-made millionaire at a young age and successful in business for many years before moving into the success industry. He is an author, speaker, mentor and editor of Success magazine.

Three Great Ideas You Can Use:

1. A great tool to determine how well or how poorly you are actually doing in any area of your life is tracking. By keeping a small notebook with you at all times and writing down what you are doing or failing to do in any area you wish to improve you will gain tremendous insight into your own success and failure.

2. You cannot change your life or improve your life unless and until you accept complete and unconditional responsibility for your own life. This sounds simple, and it is, but it is not always easy. It is however essential to make genuine progress.

3. One of the biggest secrets to success is to eliminate bad habits and replace them with good ones. This requires intentional planning and requires disciplined action for at least a month, often longer. It will be worth the effort.

The media could not be loaded.

I bought this book when it first came out over 10 years ago, and as the title states, it’s the little things overtime that make a big difference. After reading the book, I ordered three more copies for each of my teenage kids. This book opened their eyes about the importance of discipline and consistency. Today they are in their 20’s and are using some of the same principles they learned as teenagers.
It’s never too early to get your kids started on the right path to success.

Self-Improvement is very straightforward

Reviewed in Canada on December 18, 2023

Verified Purchase

The title of the book gives away the whole book - it would be like naming the murderer in the title of a murder mystery but the idea of the compound effect, which everyone gets (myself included), is not quite so simple to implement in real life. This book does a brilliant job of explaining where we get caught and also different ways we might avoid traps. It also comes with a ton of additional work that you can choose to do. It's helped me understand better why parts of my life are working well and other parts are not - the compound effect works for and against me. Well worth exploring.

The book is holistically covering the 2 sides of the startup: entrepreneur and the entrepreneurship process. The author's academic expertise and practical experience is evident in the lucidly written concepts. I liked the elaborate business plan chapter which a startup can use to model their business.

I am looking forward for a book on incubation management by the author.
