3 key takeaways in under 3 minutes 🎓

G’day!

I spend hours putting these takeaways together and I honestly hope you learn something cool today too!

Before we get into today's book, a quick thanks to our sponsor…

Don’t trust the media? 
No one can blame you.

That’s why Ground News was created.

Co-founded by a former NASA Engineer, it’s a next-gen news platform that highlights media bias so you can see the full story and judge the truth for yourself.

It’s not better news.
It’s a better way to read it.

Key takeaways 🎓

1. Do more walking

If we want to enjoy longer, healthier and happier lives, we need to walk more.

Many of the most successful people in the world have a habit of walking outside.

Not only does it improve our physical and mental health, but also gives us time to think and plan our life which ultimately leads to more success.

2. Be an action taker

Everyone wants someone who can get things done on their team.

Our ability to take action often outweighs our intelligence and experience.

Many people have big dreams and ideas, but only those who take action stand out and make real progress in life.

3. If you want something, ask for it

Too many times we’re scared to ask for what we want.

But if we don’t ask, the chances of getting what we want are slim to none.

Being bold enough to perform the simple action of just asking can lead to surprising and rewarding outcomes in all areas of life.

Closing thoughts 🧠

The book is a collection of practical life strategies that demonstrate how an extraordinary life is within reach for anyone who wants it.

Pompliano shares 65 letters to his children with inspiring lessons on how to succeed in business, have great relationships, do well with money, and live a healthier and happier life.
