Review Novel "The Greatest Salesman In the World" - review part 3

 “The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure.” - Og Mandino



Chapter 7:

In this chapter, author pinned a sentence ” … Cultivate the habit of laughter.”  and tell about the only creature who can laugh, and the best thing to laugh at is ourselves.  Whenever things seem to serious or dismal, repeat the word, “This too shall pass, ” and all troublesome thoughts will seem lighter.  Laughers puts events –successes as well as failures – into perspective. Only with laughter and gratitude can we enjoy the fruits of prosperity.

Chapter 8:
In this chapter the author tell about seek out opportunities and experiences that will multiply in value.  A grain of wheat has not choice as to what it will become – whether it will be ground into bread or planted in the earth to multiply – but each human
being has a choice – to grow or to perish.  In order to “multiply in value,” we must set goals, short-term as well as long-term.  We must not worry if we experience initial failure in reaching our goals; we compete only with ourselves.  Upon reaching goal, we multiply again by setting another, and by striving to constantly make the next hour better than the present one.




Thank u. To be continue :))

They always prioritize their hearts rather than their logic, which is why women are called "very sensitive creatures" because they really always involve the heart. In the way of communicating women tend...

Important thing about name

 Many of us assume that names do not have rules and assume names are trivial. But, do we know that names have rules?

The two surnames refer to each of the parental families. Traditionally, a Person first surname is the father's first surname (apellido paterno), while their second surname is the mother's first surname (apellido materno). For example, if a man named Eduardo ...
