Being So Broke Never Felt So Good!

The Power of Broke
Received 5 out of 5 stars

Review:
The Power of Broke by DaymondJohn is not only an inspiration to those who are broke, but also for those who may be rich or have a little cushion to sit on for a while. The book stresses the importance of tapping into your power of broke mindset and having it drive the decisions you make, the products you create, and all those things relative to becoming successful.

The book had an old school feel to it, which was similar to Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, but it also had a new school feel to it, very similar to Thrive by Arianna Huffington. The very important thing in the book was that Daymond kept it real. He stated his feelings and did not sugar coat it, especially about the Rocky movies. It was very interesting how he included stories from other entrepreneurs and successful people, such as Steve Aoki, Acacia Brinley, and Christopher Gray.

This book is great to add to your collection if you are an individual looking to tap into your power of broke mindset and go after your dreams. We all need a little inspiration every now and then. This books gives that and more.


This is a must-have, must-keep, must-encourage type of book.

Thrive

Found on Amazon.com
Thrive
Received 5 out of 5 stars

This book was absolutely amazing. It was like it was meant for me to read this book. I felt my previous reads by Napolean Hill (Think and Grow Rich), Robert Kiyosaki (Rich Dad, Poor Day), Charles E. Cox (Life is a Business), and On Death and Dying (Elisabeth Kubler-Ross) really prepared me for the book.

Arianna Huffington discusses mindfulness, mediation, well-being, wisdom, wonder, giving, and a host of other things. I really agreed with some of the key points in regards to technology, social media, and wisdom. The portion that really touched me in the book was her mother's sense of giving and her death. I found myself shedding a few tears toward the end of the book.

I commend Arianna for a book well written. "Onward, upward, and inward" as she would say.
