STOISK MINDSET
How to think when you build without permission.
What this does for you: Stop waiting for permission: know who you are, build daily discipline, and take action even when you are scared.
Who it's for
Anyone between 18 and 34 who knows they are meant for more: stuck in a safe job, the weird one in the group, just dumped or just started something and scared. You need a pen and the guts to do what's on the page.
About the author
Written by Hikmat Brakat, a cabinet maker who went from the worst door-to-door seller in his company to one of the best, and who has built businesses without permission. He is a builder, not a philosopher. The old Stoics show up as backup.
Description
A 140-page manual for 18 to 34 year olds who know they are meant for more. 30 short chapters in 5 parts: the head, challenge (utfordring), discipline (disiplin), action (handling) and the long game. It starts with the idea that if not you, then who will be you better than you, then gives you rules, stories, drills and worksheets: the 50/50 rule, the 1-2-3 daily goal system, the 20 hours rule and a plan for your first 30 days and first year. Written the way Hikmat talks, with honest stories from his worst years.
Contains strong language and an honest story about mental health, including a suicide attempt. If you are struggling, read the page “If You're At The Bottom” first: it lists free helplines (Norway: 116 123 or 22 40 00 40, emergency 113; elsewhere: findahelpline.com). Results vary, and nothing in this book is medical advice or a guarantee.
