PENGUIN The Victory Project: Six Steps to Peak Potential | Book On Investment And Wealth Creation

"I strongly believe that focus will lead to depth & depth will lead to excellence" as stated by Harsh Mariwala in the book "The Victory Project". The book starts with a breath-taking foreword by Gurcharan Das & presents a prologue so deep-rooted that it gets under the skin of working professionals. The co-authors, Saurabh Mukherjea & Anupam Gupta, in this final installment of the Coffee Can Trilogy, share their ideas on rising issues of mental health & how to deal with it in order to achieve peak productivity. The book talks about numerous learning concepts that are rarely explored like:1. Anchoring effect of Human Mind.2. Nick Chater's 'Knowledge illusion' & 'Multitasking illusion' with the Royal Bengal Tiger experiment.3. Human Mind, being a weak memory re-collector, suffers from 'perceptional bistability'.4. The debate between 'generalists' vs 'specialist’.5. Habits form 40% of our decision-making.6. Buying unnecessary stuff & excessive use of social media leads to ‘Cognitive Overload’.7. The concept of ‘Optimal Stopping’ while making a critical decision.8. The ‘SQRQS’ technique for reading & better memory retention.9. The importance of clearly defined goal-based investing from an early age.The book not only helps to tackle human minds from getting cluttered but also how one can develop the undeterred focus to ultimately achieve peak potential & cognitive happiness in work & life.

So I read this book in about 2 days of travelingThe question that I need to ask the authors is as to why have they written this book?They have not brought nothing new on the tableThey have only 3-4 concepts that they keep on repeating in the book about digital detox and noticing our inherent biases before we take any decisionIn between they have written profiles of eminent personalities which is the best part about the bookOverall this book was written by saurabh and anupama over a cup of tea and samosa(peanut butter sandwich for saurabh) with the objective of enjoying the intellectual momentum thay they are carrying
