Description:
What is your purpose/cause/belief & are you starting with your WHY? 'Start With Why' by Simon Sinek is a book about leadership/business but it can be used by an individual to help better themselves and bring more clarity to their own life. He explains the difference between successful, long-standing, impactful companies/organisations in a qualitative way. The main themes of the book are his introduction to the Golden Circle of WHY/HOW/WHAT and ensuring that these are implemented in the correct order.


I summarised the book as follows. "It initially comes across as the generic 'inspiring' self-help book, but I became more absorbed into his philosophy the longer I read on. It could be a fluke I felt this way or it could be a demonstration of Simon's own WHY in action. It can be a tad confusing with all the WHY's, HOW's & WHAT's but I found it tremendously insightful. I quite enjoyed it but am going to give it a while longer to sink in to see if I am still as impressed with it once the initial motivational kick has worn off."


I hope you are having a fantastic day wherever you are in the world, Kyrin out!
