Childhood we had long since we left, so we should do more serious effect on our lives as an adult person

The perosn who doesn't make mistakes is unlikely to make anything.

If you can't solve a problem, it's because you're playing by the rules.

Like "Whatever you think, think the opposite", this is a fun little book that's quick to get through but offers some very insightful comments on pushing yourself, breaking down your boundaries and pushing ahead with ideas that most people would disregard.

Mostly aimed towards advertising due to Arden's experience in that industry, but it's easy enough to apply these concepts elsewhere.

This book was a great, little read. It was filled with maxims on being the best at what you do. Each maxim was followed by a brief example for clarification. I appreciated Arden's candor especially when encouraging the reader to embrace failure, even to the point of being fired. Most of the examples related to advertising and design, but it's a good read for anyone who thirsts for wisdom on being the best in their field.
