Babar Raja’s Personal Review

Reading this on an Airplane from Zurich to Berlin

I read this book while traveling on a short airplane journey from Zurich to Berlin. I was looking down at the clouds and thinking about my next big project. Let me share how it felt…

When I was about thirty minutes into the flight, the part about “selling yourself on your dreams” really got to me. It made me realize that I hadn’t been dreaming big enough. I felt a surge of motivation that lasted long after I landed in Berlin.

It took me 3 nights to finish it. I would read about 70 pages every night before turning off the lights in my hotel. This book connected with me because it reminded me that I am responsible for my own success. My honest rating: 4.5/5.

What I Learned From This Book

I learned that the most important sale is the one you make to yourself. If you don’t believe in what you are doing, no one else will. This book taught me to stop being afraid of hearing “no.” A “no” is just a step closer to a “yes.” It made me realize that being professional in sales means being prepared and persistent. It changed my whole energy when talking to new people.
