Grit: How to keep going when you want to give up

 Book: Grit: How to keep going when you want to give up

Author: Martin Meadows

Publishing year: 2015


Review: "A very small and  helpful guide." 

What I thought was going to be a follow-up from the same writer actually compelled me to finish first, maybe because 56 pages looked more accomplishable.

Do not confuse it for a motivational book, it is in every sense a simplified and authentical perception of failures and approach to self-discipline. A book full of well-defined methods and practices one could imbibe and thrive to reach the smallest to  biggest goals. My favourite  takeaway from this book is the ABCDE method I'm sure many haven't heard about, just like it was for me. 


The highlights of this work are:

1. Very simple words

2. Acknowledgment of various books and authors.

3. Very generic flow of solutions

4. Well organized with factors, reasons, and solutions.

5. Techniques, their names, origins, and hows' to follow. 


Last but not least, last chapter is ironically the dessert of a perfect meal. Getting insights from already accomplished yet thriving experts to share their secrets of persistence is the most intriguing part. But there's a tradition, desserts ought to be have had at the last.
