Karyn H's Reviews > 6 Mega Life Transforming Hacks

I call it a cowrie of wisdom: an engrossing read with powerful ideas

Mega Hacks talks about how to maximize your life satisfaction, experiences, and results. The author streamlines methodical and practical steps to prosperity, success, happiness, and states that at the end of every chapter are the chapter’s “specks of gold” and the relevant “mega life-transforming hack”. I loved how the author laced his context from historical analects of Chinese philosopher and politician Confucius, the exploits of Thomas Edison up to the story of the invisible bamboo, and the interpretation of some parables. The author, Mirza Barlas by his analogies and life stories made me remember a famous assertion of the difference between working smart and working smart. I now know of the balance between time management skills, being in the right industry and right position and carefully selecting the right opportunities. The book, 6 Mega Life Transforming Hacks is simply written in two hundred and twenty-four pages with six underlying chapters and will serve greatly to those who are caught in between careers or positions and organizations, take it as a deciding portal whenever you are caught in a dilemma of taking a major decision as a leader or manager.
