Outstanding video. The mindmap allows me to master the book and make it mine. The mindmap makes committing the key points to memory by reviewing the mindmap several times. It allows me to retain the material where reading the book without the MM will cause the materal to be fleeting.
One of the most eye opening personal development books I have ever read. Could consider this as the holy grail of all self help books. Thank you for such detailed summary!

Find what drives you and gives your life meaning. 24:41 🤔 Ask high-quality questions to lead you towards success.

If you're unsure about your purpose, take action in a direction and refine it as you go. 35:19 🎯 Set goals from someday to now. Break down your goals into categories like someday, one year from now, monthly, weekly, and daily, then take action accordingly. 36:03 📆 Time blocking for planning helps keep your goals on track.
