I personally don't recommend the book because it's written very subjective. Furthermore the author repeats same things in different chapters. He basically tell some stories from history, or biographies of some successful leaders, businessmen and link to their ego. I found some stories irrelevant. Honestly i expected more from this book when i read positive feedbacks about the book, however, it doesn't worth to read at all.
If you struggle with public speaking or want to learn some points about making a good presentation, this is absolutely such a good book for you. There are a lot of quotes from TED talks which i found unnecessary. However some of these quotes are really inspiring. The book basically gives 9 secrets to make a good public speech. I am pretty sure that i will pay attention some of these 9 secrets in my PowerPoint presentations. Finally i liked the book.
In the beginning it was very boring but later you get inspired by the successful life of Tara. Also there was a lot of unnecessary information in the memoir. It could be a shorter book. Some stories were not interesting for me at all. If i wrote my life, I guess, it would be more interesting
I had an addiction to reviewing the news all the time. Every second i was wondering what's happening in Turkey and the World in general. After reading this book i became more aware of the distraction of the news and its manipulation. It's actually preventing us to think clearly since it's biased and misinforms us. It also takes a lot of our valuable time. The author basically give the reasons why we should give up reading news. I found these reasons rational. Furthermore, he suggest what to do instead of reading the news.
