Book Review : The Go-Giver


This is my re-read of this short book. I read it a few years ago and read it again as I could not recollect some part of it.  I might read it again as its a short story with 122 pages filled with valuable lessons. 

I would still classify it as a business book due to its context even though the lessons can apply to other aspects of life. 

The Five Laws of Stratospheric Success that is conveyed by the book through the parable is
The Law of Value
The true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.
The Law of Compensation
Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.
The Law of Influence
Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people's interest first.
The Law of Authenticity
The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself
The Law of Receptivity
The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.
