The One Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results by Gary Keller
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Review in 3 words – “Pareto Principle on steroids”.
The book falls under the category of ‘self help’ and most ideas written in the book are clichéd. I promise everything you read in this book are already known to you. In that sense, it lacks novelty.
Where this book stands out is how the content is delivered. To begin with, it is an easy read and easier to digest. The author really drives his point deep and succeeds in keeping you engaged in some sort of reflection throughout the book. He poses many probing questions and makes you think. He has even used a highlighter to capture important aspects of every chapter.
In a nutshell, the book is very actionable, helps you reflect and drives the core idea deep into you.
