It does not give any shortcut to achieve success,but shows that people have reached great heights by believing in their own self and working on improving themselves continuously.

As wine matures, Adam Grants writing is maturing. I read his earlier books n every book is better than its predecessors. This isn't an exception. Perfect for every learner, teacher, coach and mentor. Full of tips, technique that you can put to use immediately. Thanks a ton.

Adam has a great narrative style to convey the research topics in simplicity. The examples of ordinary individuals making it to their potential are the inspiring stories that many should read as a part of its curriculum. This book is refreshing take on tapping hidden potential by individual or people responsible for identifying it. Enjoyed reading.

Loved the book from cover to cover. Every statement that Adam makes is based on his extensive research and despite that he makes the book so much fun to read. Every student , professional or anyone who aspires to be something must read this book

It gives practical overview of what it takes to navigate they stages of imperfections and journey of becoming well in any field you are in. Very very helpful if you are changing your career or thinking to start your own business or getting into new venture. This will act like a lighthouse towards this journey.

The book has some good points to unleash potential but gets theoretical at places. However, it’s a fine leisure time reading

Enjoyed reading this book thoroughly

Simply one cannot gauge what’s a worth of a person, it is determined by how much one is willing to learn and put in efforts to reap benefits of growing as a person. There pages illustrate, how one should be persistent followed by perseverance and grit to achieve things which one strives for. Though at first it may seem slow but eventually the pace will build towards achieving the desired outcome. As said potential counts as only when one is willing to learn and work for it, again I’ll highlight that at first the results may seem too slow but progress takes time, even the evolution took a considerable amount of time for the existence of planet as well as the life inside it. Overall a creative read to foster self growth and discover one’s hidden calibre. The book ends with a note that one should always be open to learning and stay persistent There are various other Adam Grant series that can be checked out for light read.

This book is NOT about setting huge goals and dreams and trudging forward. It’s about developing character, being better than we were before, and coaching others to do the same. Adam writes so beautifully - he has distilled his ideas into beautiful nuggets. His personal stories showcase his humility and courage, as well as those of the others he shares in the book. Highly recommended if you want to set big goals and have the courage to follow through.

Just read it, enjoy and learn!
