\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Recently, I read ‘The Go – Giver<\/a>‘ by Bob Burg and John David Mann. As suggested by the cover, it is a little story about a powerful business idea. And what is that powerful business idea?<\/p>\n

Giving !<\/p>\n

Yes. Giving. Give more to receive more. Add more value to get more money. Add value faster to get value faster.<\/p>\n

The authors present this central concept through protagonist Joe’s story. The parable is simple and the characters and story is predictable. However, it lives a good impression and sets you thinking. Hmm. This is special!<\/p>\n

The book is a good collection of the classical ideas. These principles are presented in form of The Five Laws of Stratospheric Success.<\/p>\n

1. The Law of Value:<\/strong>
\nYour true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.<\/p>\n

2. The Law of Compensation:<\/strong>
\nYour income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.<\/p>\n

3. The Law of Influence<\/strong>
\nYour influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people’s interests first.<\/p>\n

4. The Law of Authenticity<\/strong>
\nThe most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.<\/p>\n

5. The Law of Receptivity<\/strong>
\nThe key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.<\/p>\n

The book also covers The Law of Attraction (The Secret is the best adaption) and the ‘Survive-Save-Serve’ Concept.<\/p>\n

I agree to the ‘The Go-Giver’ snapshot of the book
\nImparted with wit and grace, The Go-Giver is a heartwarming and inspiring tale that brings new relevance to the old proverb \u201cgive and you shall receive.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

If you want to read a short, quick and easy going inspirational book in simple English, try ‘The Go – Giver’.<\/p>\n
