Story
The Code of the Extraordinary Mind is a blueprint of laws to break us free from the shackles of ordinary life. It makes a case that everything we know about the world is mostly decided not by rational choice but instead by conditioning and habit. And thus most people live their lives based on limiting rules and outdated beliefs about pretty much everything - love, work, money, parenting, sex, health, and more - that they inherit and pass on from generation to generation.

Story
I used to get feelings of pure dread when Sunday night creeped up. By the time the Monday morning alarm clock went off, my heart would sink into my stomach. Every fiber in my body knew I couldn’t do that career for even one more day. Sound familiar? Yet somehow we find a way to keep going hour after hour. The only thing keeping me awake was stress induced adrenaline and pure hatred. I now wake up before my alarm clock goes off. I lay in my bed at night after work and can’t stop thinking about how much I love my career.

Life isn’t about “finding” fulfillment and success - it’s about creating it. Why then has creativity been given a back seat in our culture? No longer. Creativity is a force inside every person that, when unleashed, transforms our lives and delivers vitality to everything we do. Establishing a creative practice is therefore our most valuable and urgent task - as important to our well-being as exercise or nutrition. The good news? Renowned artist, author, and CreativeLive founder, Chase Jarvis, reminds us that creativity isn't a skill - it's a habit available to everyone.

Everybody talks about success… Darren C Joe talks about the downside of entrepreneurship, and it’s very insightful.
Meanwhile most of the books and blogs and Youtube videos out there explains you how to make millions… Darren C. Joe walks us through his life journey, sharing with us essential things about failures, anxiety, instability and loneliness. Which I believe, after being an entrepreneur for 8 years are part of the equation of choosing such a lifestyle. Let’s face it; you will have to deal with failure more than success. We are trained to deal with success but no ones tell us how to handle the downside of our own story. And Darren’s book is a very good resource to find ways to understand it’s mechanism and how to handle it.

Insightful & worth reading
This book is not only a good guidance for the entrepreneurs but also valuable for young people as millennials who consider themselves whether to maintain in large corporations or suitably switch into self-employed world. You will easily hear people share about how to be successful, how to make lots of money, but you barely hear people talk about their failures & how to handle such things & stabilise their well-beings. That's why those 2-side mountains are the clearest examples of the beings that we all need to face when it comes to real life's problems. Also coming from Asian family background, I totally understand what & how it is to live somehow not like the way parents want, don't wanna let parents down, taking the pressure to settle down from Asian culture, but also need to balance our emotion, ambition, the needs of our own life. I kept replaying this audiobook again & again for a couple of times since the author's experience & stories are such 'treasures' and the narrator voice is pretty warm

Loved every minute of it. Packed with gems.
This book is so relatable for anyone who is traveling and building their dream. I highly recommend this for solopreneurs, digital nomads, and expats too. It covers all the points of how to do this successfully and brings to light some of the downsides of this lifestyle. I need to listen to it a few times because there are so many tips, things to ponder on, and prompts for me to action.
Do yourself a favour get this book, then carve out some time and take notes.
