Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules For Life Book Review by Ndiritu Wahome
Ndiritu Wahome’s Book Review, Think Again by Adam Grant
There is a clear-cut difference between having confidence and competence. Most people suffer from the Dunning-Krugger effect, in that the better they think they are, the greater the risk of overestimating themselves regarding the current task. Consequently, the greater the odds they have of improving. They become mediocre as they cannot doubt their abilities to improve. Moreover, they are not able to reframe the situation and have the confidence to have the capacity to learn while questioning their current solution to a problem. They lack the awareness of knowing what they do not know, which is the first step towards developing expertise.
Dr Joseph Murphy, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind Book Review by Ndiritu Wahome
For sure, Dr Joseph Murphy, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind is a mind-blowing book that details vital secrets of how people can understand the unconscious mind, how it works and the power it has in steering their lives. In simple friendly language, the author has explained different techniques that lead to success in life, cure mental illnesses, generate wealth, fix marital problems, and create a harmonious human relationship, among other helpful insights. He cites examples of true life-based stories of how patients changed their lives by using the concepts and techniques that he has highlighted. I especially liked the practical methodology he uses of affirmation of what one wants before going to be. The does miracles as the unconscious mind takes in whatever is fed from the conscious mind.
Prof Steven Peters, the Chimp Paradox, Book Review by Ndiritu Wahome
In all honesty, Pro Steven Peter’s book, the Chip Paradox, I found its content to be most basic, commonplace and a huge disappointment from what I expected. The overall perception and expectation of a detailed scientific book explaining the science of the mind and how it functions to propel men towards greatness was such a letdown, that I feel almost not worthy of writing this review. Nonetheless, here I am. I found the book to be simple with a basic language structure full of silly illustrations and commonplace names i.e, the Human, the Chimp and the Computer to refer to the fundamental areas of the brain namely; the frontal, limbic and parietal that in his own words ‘combine to form the psychological mind.’ This in my view has lowered the intellectual weight of an otherwise promising work.
Nathaniel Braden How to Raise your Self-Esteem Book Review by Ndiritu Wahome
People who have high self-esteem take responsibility for their lives. One way they do so is by being responsible for the consequences of each decision they make. They take one hundred per cent accountability for every action done. They act. They do not wait for others to fulfil their dreams. They do not sit the whole day and wait for an angel to help them. Also, they do not shift blame when decisions made do not turn out as expected. In short, they take full responsibility for their existence and the attainment of their desires.
For us to live a full life and have healthy self-esteem, we must be responsible for our lives. We must be fully conscious that no one is coming to rescue us from the bad decisions and inactivities we have indulged in. We must know and understand life belongs to us alone and we are accountable for it solely.
