Book Review: Strive by Scott Amyx
We all know people in our lives, friends, family and colleagues, who should have been successful but for some reason just are not. It simply did not happen for them.
They may be hard working, they may be intelligent, but they have not fulfilled their potential or goals.
If intelligence or even hard work was the guaranteed formula for great success then the world would be over flowing with successful people.
Yes intelligence and hard work play a big part, but truly successful people have other factors in common.
One is that they have usually failed before and it is what they have done with this failure or in some cases multiple failures that moulds their future.
Scott Amyx in his new book Strive: how doing the things most uncomfortable leads to success, outlines his recipe for success, based on his own journey as an immigrant child from a poor family to award-winning author and thought leader on emerging technologies and the future of the internet.
He also showcases the stories of some of the truly successful people throughout the ages.
