Grant was an addict himself before he got clean and replaced that bad obsession with a new one: to be the name synonymous with sales. Drug addicts are an example of people who obsess over bad things. You’re not stressed out if you’re feeding your obsessions. If you’re obsessed with what you do at work and you pour yourself into it you’ve probably been called a workaholic or people think you’re stressed out. Most average-minded people hear the word obsessed and associate bad thoughts to it equating it to addiction. What are your putting your 10,000 hours to mastery to? Candy Crush? Or building your empire? You see, there are good obsessions and bad obsessions. Many of us have heard of the 10,000-hour rule. When was the last time you put in more effort than just the minimum?

Other average-minded people would tell me I was talented and that they wish they had my abilities. While I may have had some natural ability given to me or “talent” I know for a fact that I would never have achieved that title had I not put in the daily hours, effort, and discipline for over 7 years. When I was in high school I achieved being one of the best young musicians in the state. I can apply this to my own experience as a young musician. However, hard work beats talent to a pulp when talent doesn’t work. It is true that there are some people who are naturally better than others at a specific skillset. Talent is defined as a natural aptitude or skill. In today’s economy and workplace, average just doesn’t cut it anymore. This is a topic that I have been thinking about for a while now. To give you an Idea, this book came out today and I’ve already read it! That’s how good it is! He delivers so much value that it’s hard to believe I even got away with this book being only $17. Anything from Grant is well worth the investment in my opinion.
