UnLearn: A Practical Guide to Business and Life by Anubhav Srivastava (9 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

WHY YOU SHOULD BE READING THIS BOOK? "Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: Some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and can't control that inner tranquillity and outer effectiveness become possible." - Epictetus (Ancient Greek Philosopher) Most motivational advice only works if the people receiving it are hyper talented or super lucky or both. But what about the Average Joe or Jane? For them, most advice that is peddled is simply not that useful. When the advice seems to work for someone and gives them statistically extremely extraordinary results that cannot be consistently replicated, it is usually because of survivorship bias (We, our society and the media focuses on the 1 person who succeeded following that advice, supposed to be proof that advice works, but ignore the 1000 others who failed following the exact same thing with the same sincerity.) Several years ago, I shared some motivational advice myself, through my movie Carve Your Destiny, through years of interviews with "super achievers." (I'll talk about it more in the book). Now, don't get me wrong, a lot of principles that motivational books or movies talk about are good in principle and do work to a certain degree. HOWEVER, the world is uncertain. The world is ever changing. The world does not bend to popular advice, in fact popular advice is being pushed out to conform society to a set of beliefs that are taking people in a direction that clearly doesn't work for 99.9 percent of people. Compared to the popular, mainstream advice of today, this is a completely unconventional and contrarian guide to what I have discovered about business, career & life in the past 15 years. Instead of generic motivation, what the reader will get are my raw, unfiltered views on what I have learnt till now about how the world really operates, beyond ...

A Regency Historical Romance Inspired by Jane Austen's SANDITON (Not based on the TV show and not a clean romance)* After the adventure of a lifetime in the up-and-coming seaside town of Sanditon, Charlotte Heywood has returned to her father's house in Willingden with a broken heart. The man she loves, Sidney Parker, did not propose to her, and she left Sanditon without knowing why. It is her dear friend Frederica Lambe who tells her the truth by letter: Sidney is engaged! Will Sidney's wedding take place? And if so, will Charlotte be able to find happiness in Willingden without him? This Regency romance borrows from Jane Austen's original works, which are now in the public domain. The only characters who appear in this adaptation are from Jane Austen's original universe (or are implied by it). While the original Sanditon fragment is too incomplete for us to know how Austen would have resolved the romantic plot, this novel pairs Charlotte with a likely candidate for her heart. Readers may also recognize minor characters from Austen's other works, including Pride and Prejudice and Emma. However, readers do not have to be familiar with Austen's original works before reading this story. *Warning: This novel includes some sexual content. This is not a clean romance.
