The 10x rule is an idea that the author created which means to put ten times more effort in any category of life to receive ten times the results. This book talks about how bad it is to be average. There are average people all around, but their life is never as fulfilling as somebody who abides by the 10x rule. The idea of putting yourself in uncomfortable situations is heavily encouraged throughout this book. If you constantly challenge and put yourself in tough situations, then everything will become easier for you because you have experienced the worst. Furthermore, writing down goals is described as a fundamental habit to commit to. Everyone has goals and visions which they want to accomplish and the only way to do that is to write it down on paper and have it in plain sight. This book is highly motivational and will put you in the right mindset to succeed.
The 10x Rule, by Grant Cardone, is like no other book you have read before. It introduces a very interesting concept and mindset to have. It reminds you that you are going to have obstacles on the pathway to success but because you are facing problems, that means you are on the right track. Fear is described as “False Events Appearing Real”. That line alone really motivated me to look past my fears and do things that scare me. I recommend this book to everyone. The ideas expressed can be applied to every aspect of life. After reading this book, my attitude towards everything changed and I am more focused and goal oriented. I enjoyed every chapter of this book and I guarantee you will too. If you find yourself struggling to succeed then pick up this book. It will forever change how you live.
