Publisher's summary

From the millionaire entrepreneur and New York Times bestselling author of The 10X Rule comes a bold and contrarian wake-up call for anyone truly ready for success.

Before Grant Cardone built five successful companies (and counting), became a multimillionaire, and wrote bestselling books...he was broke, jobless, and drug-addicted.

Grant had grown up with big dreams but friends and family told him to be more reasonable and less demanding. If he played by the rules, they said, he could enjoy everyone else’s version of middle class success. But when he tried it their way, he hit rock bottom.

Then he tried the opposite approach. He said NO to the haters and naysayers and said YES to his burning, outrageous, animal obsession. He reclaimed his obsession with wanting to be a business rock star, a huge philanthropist, live in a mansion, even own an airplane.

Obsession made all of his wildest dreams come true. And it can help you achieve massive success too. As Grant says, we're in the middle of an epidemic of average. The conventional wisdom is to achieve balance and take it easy. But this has really just given us an excuse to be unexceptional.

If you want real success, you have to be obsessed and know how to harness that power to rocket to the top. This book will give you the inspiration and tools to break out of your cocoon of mediocrity and achieve your craziest dreams. Grant will teach you how to:

· set crazy goals—and reach them, every single day
· feed the beast: when you value money and spend it on the right things, you get more of it
· shut down the doubters—and use your haters as fuel

You can be obsessed...or you can be average. It’s your choice. Why not start going full-throttle towards your obsession today?

If don't want it all, don't read this book...

People think being obsessed is bad, Grant says it all depend what you're obsessing on. What if you were obsessed with all the positive things in your life and your future? Imagine the possibilities? In true form, Grant delivers on recording his own audio with ad-lib and nuggets of gold. Always truthful, ever unfiltered, you know you're always getting the best. Want all your life to be amazing? Then commit and listen to this program. Grant has changed my life only for the better in so many areas, if you want to be obsessed about your life and success and feel like you are the minority. And you want to help others, then this is for you. #10X #BOBA

Refuse to be average

what can I say about this book that would inspire others to read it. it's worth your time and money. if your not constantly seeking self improvement you are doomed to fail. i look at this with a military inset and compare it to the battle field. Those that get bogged down in life or on the battle field are doomed. in battle it is always better to be moving than it is to remain in place. if your reading my review it is clear that you are on the right path and I want you to know I'm on your side and your not alone.

Game changer for personal improvement

This is a book that arguably everyone should read to give themselves permission to chase and achieve their dreams. Grants performance is colorful and engaging; it will be impossible to give the book up before the end.

This book was one of the best books I read...

I am 13 and have read all of grant card ones books and this one by far was one of the best books that I have read the book is important because I tells you how to stay consistent and not to listen to average people the main part of the books is to be with people that are successful and how you need obsession In your lifestyle It talks about setting goals and building a career It talks about how to get a job at grant Cardone and what employers want he talks about his life too and how most rich and wealthy people are obsessed with their life in conclusion without this book I would have never learned the art of consistency and that you never lose if you don’t quit. #BOBA
