StoryShots Book Summary and Review of The 80/20 Principle: The Secret of Achieving More With Less by Richard Koch The episode is a summary of the book 'The 80/20 Principle' (The 80-20 Principle) by Richard Koch. It introduces the idea that 80% of results in business and life stem from 20% of efforts, and emphasizes the importance of prioritization and focusing on the aspects that matter.

The episode delves into the idea of 80/20 thinking, which involves self-reflection, unconventional approaches, and understanding nonlinear relationships.

• 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do by Amy Morin Book Summary and Review

She’s a highly sought-after keynote speaker who gave one of the most popular TEDx talks of all time. Her books have been translated into more than 30 languages. Amy is a columnist for Inc., Forbes, and Psychology Today. Her articles on mental strength reach more than 2 million readers each month. No matter how intelligent you are or what life has thrown at you, there is no way to become more deserving of success than anyone else. If a person loses their business and feels indebted, they’re inviting more frustration and anger into their life. Mentally strong people can shift their focus away from their debt. Hence, they can help people in need. Mentally strong people keep themselves busy doing good deeds. If you follow this guidance, you can stop wasting time, stop feeling like you are owed something and stop resenting others’ success. By far, the most harmful drug is self-pity. It is addictive, provides only temporary pleasure, and disconnects people from reality. No one is immune to hard times. However, it is how you react to these situations that is important. Mentally strong individuals do not spend precious time pitying themselves. They replace self-pity with gratitude.  Amy Morin provides an example of an American long-distance runner, Marla Runyan. She ran the New York Marathon in a little over two hours. Marla also has a master’s degree in education and has written a book. The most impressive aspect of all this is that she is legally blind. The key to her success lies in her refusal to indulge in self-pity. She’s always refused to identify her illness as a disability. Rather than dwelling on what her illness took away, she’s grateful for what it gave her.

The only meaningful difference was their mindset.  StoryShot #1 - We All Need Financial Education Financial literacy is extremely rare. The vast majority of students will leave school with zero financial skills. They will have developed knowledge that will help them pursue a specific profession but won’t know how to keep the money they make. They will have learned how to make some money but have no idea how to spend their money. Earning money only amplifies the cash flow pattern in your head. Financial literacy helps you control this cash flow pattern.
