Let's start...

At first I want to clarify the meaning of the word Outliers. Someone or something that differs from any other set of people or things is called an outlier.

Outliers is a very compelling and wonderfully written book by Malcolm Gladwell. He brought many success stories of different people who have achieved great success in their work field.

He mentioned how the people of Roseto lived longer than the average people around them by being habituated in a manner that others didn’t. Their food habit was different than other city dwellers. Also, they had a unique environment that helped them stay healthy.

Canadian-hockey-example was an eye-opener. Bringing a lot of statistical data, the author showed us how a birth date affects someone's hockey career. If a child is unfortunate to be born one day before January, he or she has to wait a whole year to get admitted to the clubs where others are admitted after a certain age. As a result, most of the former ones lag lacking a year of practice.

10,000 Hour Rule was one of the core concerns of this book. Malcolm Gladwell pictures examples of Mozart, a great music composer; Bill Gates, Microsoft Boss; The Beatles, a famous English rock band; so on and so on... . One thing was common in their lives. They have, at least, spent 10,000 hours practicing heart and soul in which they truly desired to do. And fortunately, they got added advantages from many different parts in that course of their lives. The author describes it unbelievably engagingly that you will be astonished to get a flavor of fiction in a non-fiction book.

This book also contains some psychological and cultural facts regarding success. You will see how legacy plays a vital role in a person's life in this wonderfully weaved.

Have a grab of it, read it, and use it for an inspiration to achieve your life's goal. I got a different kind of taste by reading this book.

No more today. Thanks for reading my post for so long. I hope you enjoy the article. I will come up with something new very soon. Till then Stay well and healthy.

Since I read the book in PDF, I couldn't take any pictures of this book. I collected those photos from google. You can also get the PDF version of this book online.

What you narrate is interesting, a book of fiction and at the same time of non-fiction... success stories of characters that have been important in the world of music, business, each one from their own spaces... the dedication they made to achieve that success that is valued by humanity.

Very interesting review.

Regards

Lo que narras es interesante un libro de ficción y al mismo tiempo de no ficción...historias de éxito de personajes que han tenido importancia en el mundo de la música, empresarial, cada uno desde sus espacios...la entrega que hicieron para lograr ese éxito que es valorado por la humanidad.

Muy interesante su reseña.

Saludos
