April Reading Recap + A Motivational Speech to Help You Harness OBSESSION
Plus another great book breakdown available at the Stairway to Wisdom
Hey, so I mentioned last time that my Monthly Reading Recap was almost ready.
Well, now it actually IS ready (watch it here), plus my latest YouTube video about harnessing the unrivaled power of OBSESSION to smash through your goals - even your limiting beliefs and the judgments of others.
This video is for people with BIG dreams, but a *small* support network.
Hopefully, you have more people who believe in you than “just” me, but regardless, if you have a dream, you need to protect it.
You see, oftentimes if people can't do something, they're going to try and tell you that YOU can't do it. Get these people the f*** out of your life.
NEVER apologize for being OBSESSED, or for having big dreams that you're pursuing with everything you have WITHIN YOU.
Because I’m telling you:
The late nights and the early mornings will all be worth it.
The training to failure will lead you to new muscle growth.
The stretching of your mind by reading the best books will lead you to the best ideas you've ever had. It will all be worth it.
NEVER apologize for being OBSESSED, and NEVER apologize for being SUCCESSFUL, either.
Most people will NOT understand. But I'm with you.
After you’re all fired up from watching THAT video, you can check out my much chiller, much more laid-back Monthly Reading Recap.
In the video, I talk about the 6 great books I read in March of 2023, including the INCREDIBLE life story of Eric Thomas, one of my favorite inspirational leaders.
We've also got the story of A.J. Jacobs, who decided to read the Encyclopedia Brittanica from A-Z, a novel by one of the most famous poets of the Beat generation, and a REAL self-improvement book that delivers some harsh truths guaranteed to make many people uncomfortable...but that might just set you free.
Tonight, I’m also sharing my complete breakdown of Bob Proctor’s book, Change Your Paradigm, Change Your Life.
Totally free, and ready for you to read right now.
It’s about 9,200 words covering the key ideas and takeaways, and you can finish reading my breakdown of the book in about 35 minutes.
Your “paradigm” is your mental programming that keeps you stuck in old patterns of behavior.
It’s that little voice deep inside your own mind that tries to tell you, “I don’t deserve this, I’m not good enough.”
You can re-program yourself over time (it’s a longer process than some people want you to believe!), and if you want to break through that ceiling that’s been holding you back from reaching your true potential, this is the book for you.
I’ll leave it there for now, but hey, thanks for reading, and I’ll see you later on this week!
I’d also love for you to leave a comment on this post and tell the group what you’ve been working on this week! There are about 280+ members of The Competitive Advantage right now, and we’re here to help you!
All the best,
Matt Karamazov
