Book Review - Relentless by Tim Grover

[LordFall]

Really enjoyed this book, don't think I've read one like it before. It highlights the mindset that you need to become a world class performer. Which is not everyone btw. Not even close. For there to be a top 1% there has to be a bottom 99%.

Tim Grover's worked with top atheletes like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and Dwayne Wade. He talks about how these guys thought patterns and effort put into the game was on a completely different level than their teammates. They weren't here to have a fun time and get paid well to be a superstar, they were here to crush their competition and be #1.

It related with me because about 10 years ago I was a professional League of Legends player and reached top 0.01%(challenger and rank 170 in North America out of around 1.5M players.)

It was not easy and consumed my life and I can say I was relentless at that point in time. It's not about fun, it's about dominance. I think if you have important goals that you wanna accomplish in your life adopting this mindset or at least part of it is mandatory.

I would rate it 8.5/10 and one of the top 5 books I've read.

Thanks for sharing @LordFall

What are your other top 5 books? Mine are Hormozi's books (both Offers and Leads), Atomic Habits, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Six Pillars of Self-Esteem and Flow. For now, these are the only ones that I'd buy, over 30 or so I've read.

Ralston's books are a bit too far ahead for me but otherwise they'd be part of this list too.
