Because @cascdr shared with me Tony Robbins’s 3 to thrive routine (https://community.thriveglobal.com/the-9-minute-morning-meditation-tony-robbins-swears-by/)
I dug out my review of his book titled Unshakeable.
—
Right off the bat, @tonyrobbins delivered what I wanted: the intricacies of investing demystified in 7 easy-to-recall patterns, no less. Little did I expect to undergo such a delightful and deliciously methodical journey with him. From the seemingly random movements of financial markets, he then discusses other external factors like choosing a qualified financial advisor before weaving his way to explore the inner self and explain how we should set ourselves a robust criteria so that we remain - you got it - Unshakeable in times of market volatility. But wait, there’s more. Despite the advice of medical professionals, he chose to leave a tumour intact in his brain because he examined all factors and decided that it was non-threatening to his health. Call it misguided bravado if you may, but I surely can’t say that he doesn’t practise what he preaches. His last chapter also took me by surprise. He ended by emphatically stating how money is but a tool and how true fulfilment arises when we cultivate the spirit of gratitude. I was expecting this to be a treatise on money but devoured a spiritual guide to living my best unflappable self instead. Make this the last book you read before this year ends!
