I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants success in lifeI am not a great believer in get rich quick schemes, lose weight in 7 days, love at first sight, etc and so does this book.This book is very different from the nonsense that media fills your mind everyday.The best thing about the book is that it teaches you to work hard. There is no such thing as an overnight success. You have to work hard considerably everyday to make the compound effect work in favour of you.According to the Author, the Compound Effect is always at work. You can make it work for you or it will work against you.He gives the example of three friends. One friend tries to improve himself everyday. He spends some time with his wife, walks for half an hour everyday, cuts 125 calories less in his diet and reads motivational books everyday. The second friend does nothing and is a little bitter about life. The third friend rarely exercises, spends enormous amount of hours watching TV everyday, takes his wife for granted and has a cookie and beer everyday to enjoy life.The result after 2 and a half years: The third friend is now obese, has got health problems and loses his job and wife.The second friend remains the same and now is more bitter than before. The first friend remains trim, has a happy relationship with his wife and gets a job promotion.You can see the compound effect in action.The Author gives lots of examples like the one above. The plane analogy, the pump analogy and the steam engine analogy.It is the small things we do in life that makes the biggest of differences. You don’t become obese overnight nor do you lose your wealth instantly. It is all a compound effect of bad decisions taken almost everyday over a considerable period of time.Most importantly the Author has some very practical suggestions to implement good habits and get rid of bad ones.So if you want to lose weight, what many people do, is to buy an expensive gym membership, new gym clothes and shoes to exercise. They work out intensively for an hour a day for 7 days. Then they give up disappointed with the results. Instead the Author suggests that it is better to walk 10 minutes a day and slowly increase it till it becomes a habit like brushing your teeth. In this way you will have long lasting impact for your health.The Compound effect is always in action be it finance, business, health, relationships or your spirituality.It is also important to take things slowly.

Great product
Martha F. –
Great Book!I started out by listening to the audio book version and then decided to purchase the physical book because I wanted it for my collection. I find this book to be very interesting and helpful. The value of compound effect- simply adding small increments of changes in your life- is very powerful and motivating. I think this book is a must read, if you are seeking to improve your life!
