📕 Book Summary

This week's book is “Shoe Dog” by Phil Knight

Discover how Nike became one of the biggest Brands in the world. 

This is one of the best memoirs I’ve read to date. 🙌🏻
.
Shoe Dog is a beautiful, candid, funny, suspenseful, and inspiring story of how Phil Knight started a small company by borrowing money from his father and turning it into one of the world’s most iconic brands NIKE.
.
In this book, Phil recalls his foundational relationships and a lot of struggles he faced during his journey of making Nike.
.
This a brilliant book that will inspire you and motivate you to believe in yourself and your dreams.
 
Overall this Book is an amazing read that will help inspire you to take action toward your dreams and goals.

I would definitely recommend you give it a read.

Here are 7 valuable lessons from the book

1. No. of possibilities: In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s mind there are few.

2. Whatever comes just don’t stop: Let everyone else call your ideas crazy….Just keep going. Don’t even think about stopping until you get there. and Don’t give much thought to where “there” is. Whatever comes just don’t stop.

3. Without victory, there is no survival: You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory……Without victory, there is no survival.

4. Life is a game: Like it or not, life is a game. whoever denied that truth, whoever simply refuses to play, gets left on the sidelines.

5. Fail Fast: If I failed, I would fail quickly, so I’d have enough time, and enough years to implement all the hard-won lessons.

6. Forget your limits:  You must forget your limits. You must forget your doubts, your pain, and your past. You must forget that internal voice screaming, begging, “Not one more step” and when it’s not possible to forget it, you must negotiate with it.

7. Don’t tell people how to do things: Don’t tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.
