Rhinoceros success is such a great book, written at a sixth grade level, everyone looking to understand the difference between successful minded people and average thinking, this is the perfect gift for any child or young adult to understand the difference your attitude makes in your path towards successful adulthood. Also, for any adult, this is also a very inspiring, entertaining and logical book to refresh your understanding of good versus evil or mindfully put, positive versus negative.

This book will help you understand this philosophy.

Remember back in January when you laid out your plans for the New Year? How are those plans coming? Ask yourself honestly, "How am I doing? What have I been able to do and what have I been procrastinating on?" This is a great books on this topic that offers tips and thoughts to keep you in motion. It is a funny, short and easy-to-read book that will inspire any action-oriented person to get moving! Scott Alexander has a creative approach to get you ready to charge forward into action!The author makes the premise that there are two kinds of people in the world, "Cows" and "Rhinos." You get to choose which one you'd like to be. Rhinos are the people who charge ahead and don't let things get them down. They get things done and see the possibilities even in adverse circumstances. Obstacles are merely hurdles to break through, not road blocks that immobilize. Now realistically, every rhino is going to have some "cow" days; the trick is to be a cow as little as possible, because rhinos simply get more done and are more successful. Cows have a different purpose altogether and are OK with mediocre, "good enough" and settling for living in fenced-in pastures, chewing their cud.Scott Alexander talks about reading a focus statement daily. He suggests: "I am a rhinoceros. I have a damn-the-torpedoes spirit! I am full of energy and I can't wait to get up in the morning to start charging!" Now, write your big picture goal and get moving! Success happens one step at a time, whether the goal is large or small. Whatever you do, do something, stay in action and keep moving forward.

I enjoyed the book for the humor it added with a lot of the illustrations. I think it touches on a book to add some positivity to your life and doesn't teach too much about being better at business. It just tells you basic informatiom that you can likely find anywhere on the internet. Take charge of your life, your attitude and way of thinking determines how you see yourself, have a healthy life of exercise and eating well. It doesn't teach anything groundbreaking or enlightening, but I enjoyed the humor of it and understood from the foreword it wasn't your traditional business or leadership book. It was nice to have a book that is an easy read and providing a little humor at the same time. I'd still recommend it for the experience of reading it for the opportunity to read it.

Get stuff done, charge with full force at one thing, stop complaining, charge on. No need for 200 - 300 pages explaining the philosophy. Not ground-breaking but fun book and easy to refer back to when you need a boost.If you need to rest your hooves, go read the one star reviews. ;)

I loved this book so much, I made all my kids read it. We talked about it each night and set goals together. It was truly transformative for our family.

Not really for someone looking for career type motivation. I wish i could return it but since i read it, my integrity is getting the best of me.

Charge Ahead! Be Bold! Rhinos have thick skin, and they ignore the brambles and thick brush that turn back the weak...This book is a fun read that has great principles. I read it first when I was about 30 (which is now almost 30 years ago), and just read it again. I'm happy to say I have lived my life by these principles and it has made me more bold & successful (along with the consumption of many other books and principles). I highly recommend this book, especially if young, feeling inexperienced, finding getting motivated difficult, or fear failure and judgement by other people.Rhinos succeed!Charge ahead!

Best book for success financially spiritually and easy on your eyes

Bom livro, de rápida leitura.

Lo recomiendo es un libro muy sencillo pero muy objetivo.

Ich finde die Buchreihe super! Vor allem dieses erste Buch. Sehr witzig geschrieben und mal etwas anderes. Nicht wie die hundert anderen "Motivationsbücher". Auf das Buch bin ich gekommen weil es Bear Grylls öfters liest :).

Inspirational words on taking action and making every post a winner. The humour and intent of the words presented make it a very easy read.
