Summary: Read my review of this book and learn why it had a huge impact on how I conduct my business.

Synopsis (from Goodreads):

More success than you have now?
And even more success than you ever imagined possible?
That is what this book is about.

As publisher of SUCCESS magazine, author Darren Hardy has heard it all, seen it all, and tried most of it. This book reveals the core principles that drive success.

If you’re serious about living an extraordinary life, use the power of The Compound Effect to create the success you desire. Begin your journey today!

I was required to read The Compound Effect as part of a one month business improvement course. It’s not something I would have picked up at first glance. This book, however, had a huge impact on my own mindset and how I conducted my business.

The author uses plenty of real-life examples to show his readers that building a business is all about consistency and hard work, and eventually all the little things you do at the beginning will end in much larger rewards. I loved all of Hardy’s stories because they not only broke up the information in the book, but they helped me to connect big names that I knew with the small steps that I am taking in my own business right now. He helped me to realize that if I am consistent and work hard, I can do big things too.

This book is a great motivator for anyone working towards an overwhelming or seemingly unfruitful goal.
