Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

What an amazing book! I have read literally thousands of books and if I had one book to recommend to someone for living a better life and achieving success it would be this one! The book starts with a seemingly simple question, What do you want? and proceeds to provide a global framework for getting what you want and then working with others to achieve greater objectives as well. My takeaway is that finding the truth, being open, and persistence are the qualities needed to achieve any goal or solve any problem. Many people 'think' they are finding the truth and being open but they are not, and companies are rampant with self-delusion in these areas. If all companies would adopt these Principles, the world would be a better place. Principles describes in great detail how you achieve any objective from the individual small goal to the organization huge goal with a clear framework. Along the way, there are hundreds of tips and thought-gems that you will find useful. It's been a long time since a book was published with such enduring principles and quality. You can tell this is Mr. Dalio's life work and not like so many other books in this genre where someone set out to write a book and show they were an expert or make some cash (indeed, Mr. Dalio doesn't need any more;). I expect that this book will become one of those rare books that are still read and recommended 100 years from now as the Principles are timeless, clear, and potentially life-changing. For me, this is THE book I will write an inscription on and give to my son when he becomes an adult. Do keep in mind though that reading the book alone won't change your life, you must take action on what you learn!
