The Fine Art of Limiting Yourself to the Essential...in Business and in Life

Jorge Quinteros ▶ Power of Less, The

A life without limits is taking a cup of red dye and pouring it into the ocean, and watching the color dilute into nothingness. Limited focus is putting the same cup of dye into a gallon of water.

I have read all Brown's books and have found them both interesting and innovative and if you've ever enjoyed any of his novel, I'm sure you would agree with me too but Deception Point is quite the opposite of what you would expect. I found it extremely boring and repetitive. Not one of his best works.

Granted, I'm just around page 100, but so far the book has been enjoyable and entertaining. I read "Angels & Demons" and loved it,so I decided to give this a try.

Angels & Demons was capturing for me right for the start but this one just lags in getting to the gist of plot. Enjoyable yes but not one of my favorites from Dan Brown.

You have to treat everyone you meet as if they are the most important person in the world - because they are. If not to you, then to someone; and if not today, the perhaps tomorrow.

The emerging picture from studies is that 10,000 hours of practice is required to achieve the level of mastery associated with being a world class expert in anything.

Jorge Quinteros ▶ Outliers

It's not enough to ask what successful people are like, in other words. It is only by asking where are they from that we can unravel the logic behind who succeeds and who doesn't. Successful people don't do it alone. Where they come from matters. They're product of particular places and environments.
