Posted in Book reviewTagged , , , Leave a comment

The world’s greatest bodybuilder. The world’s highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth-largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke, but this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident. The seven rules to follow to realize your true purpose in life—distilled by Arnold Schwarzenegger from his own journey of ceaseless reinvention and extraordinary achievement, and available for absolutely anyone.

This book has to be the best book I read last year. It was incredible and so fucking good.

This book is a mix between a self-help book and a biography book coming from no other than Arnold Schwarzenegger, the greatest actor and  the greatest governor of all time.

If you don’t know a lot about Arnold Schwarzenegger but you want to change that, just read this book. Because this book involves a lot of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s life which will teach you a few things.

This book is about Arnold’s path to success and how you can succeed like he did in whatever you want in life. And reading this book really motivates you to actually work harder and to succeed.

This book in a way gives you confidence and empowers you which really shows how good of a writer and person Arnold Schwarzenegger really is.

The writing style in this book. It really proves how good of a writer Arnold Schwarzenegger really is. He is just amazing with words.

It was very hard to put down this book which really made me love this book even more. I was glued to this book from the first sentence and I read this book in less than 1,5 days.

I Give This Book 5 / 5

“The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne Review

Posted in Book reviewTagged , , Leave a comment

The Secret contains wisdom from modern-day teachers—men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible.

This book is another sort of a mix of nonfiction and self help book which as we all know some people will love and others will hate it. And there is nothing between hate or love when it comes to books like this. 

The whole idea is pretty good. Because it’s for the most part that “good attracts good” and “bad attracts bad” which sort of make sense which a lots of self help book lacks now on days. 

The writing style is bad, for the most part the writing is nothing but “do this and this will happened if you believe”. The writing style will make some people hate this book. Because it almost feels like the author didn’t care about putting good enough effort to this book. And all she did want is to collect pay checks for this book. 

This book could have had the potential to be so much better if the author would just cut out the quotes of other people and but more effort in the writing style. 

The whole book for the most part is just a collection of quotes from doctors, scientist, random people and the rest of humanity. And there is no origin story to “the secret” or something supporting that’s the real thing. All we get is that Albert Einstein believed in it and it’s real. 

There is no background to it and no evidence to it. If you want to believe it, no one on this blog is telling you that you can’t. I’m just saying that some people needs evidence supporting everything. 

I give this book 4 / 5

«Mów Własnym Glosem» by Regina Brett Review

Posted in Book reviewTagged , , 4 Comments

95Speak With Your Voice is 50 engaging lessons about the power of words – not silence; about the fact that even if the truth is difficult to face, only in this way will we become free. How to exercise courage? How to face everyday life in spite of our fears and fears? And finally – how to share your story so that it is inspiration and hope?

So this is another self-help books, the thing with self-help books is that you either love the book you just read or you completely hate it.

It is a quick read, and you will really read it in just 3-4 days. The text in this book are pretty big and the chapters are pretty small.

Every chapter is a different “lesson”, and every “lesson” isn’t longer than 5 ish sides. However none of these “lessons” are really lessons, they are pretty much stories from the author’s life. Which will not change anything in your own life.  And a lot of these so-called “lessons” were (in my opinion) targeting a special groups of people. Well come on we are in 2020 not in 1920.

This book have a lots of good reviews, but truly this book doesn’t deserve all these good reviews.  There were parts in this book that made me feel like the author wanted to squeeze every dollar from people who are buying this book.

If you watched some interviews with the author of this book. You will quickly see that what she writes in this book is the opposite of what she is saying in these interviews.site things which she say in some interviews which I had watched. She is also roasting herself a lot in this book which is probably something  you shouldn’t do in a book at least.

In the end these so-called “lessons” doesn’t learn you anything. And the entire book book feels like reading a blogger who is trying to be a journalist way too hard. And its probably too long because most of these “lessons” could have been one sentence long or 1 page long.

And how can you name random stories from the author’s life “life lessons” ? thats the big questions with this book. Another thing here is that bringing in every lesson religon is bad idea. Because thats why too much religion.

   I give this book 1 / 5
