Book Description
Publication Date: January 15, 2014

A life-altering guide packed with accounts from John’s personal endeavors, those of historical figures and influential acquaintances. This quintessential handbook exposes the x-factor, that extra something, which unleashes the potential in all of us. Ingredients of Outliers is a compilation of thoughts, tips and techniques that will guide you toward finding the ingredients in the “secret sauce” that makes an individual go from average to extraordinary and will inspire you to step outside your comfort zone to join the ranks of the outliers.

There is an abundance of humor and enlightenment in this 169-page non-fiction book. Each one of the 16-chapters in the book focuses on a different attribute that outliers demonstrate. The chapter topics include humility, failure, persistence, preparation, communication, imperturbability, tolerating risk, kindness, learning, optimism, perspective, indefatigability, efficiency, integrity, intuition and being one of a kind.

      That's right. But it's the one to read rather than the spinoffs.

      "…moving forward".

      You for got that all sentences must either begin or end with the words "moving forward".

      I am always thinking of being inside a box, is that bad?

        funny. good point - you're probably gonna think of what's outside the box when you're actually in it.

  My first reaction on being presented with any self-help 'expert' is to see what they've been caught doing. Not sure how legit these allegations are:
