This book teaches readers to think like non-conformist minds by questioning, challenging, and creating new rules for their lives. It argues that many of our beliefs and practices are based on outdated 'Brules' (bullsh*t rules) that limit our potential. The book provides a revolutionary 10-point framework blending computational thinking, integral theory, modern spirituality, evolutionary biology, and humor to help readers shed limiting beliefs and achieve an extraordinary life. The framework is based on Lakhiani’s personal experiences, his work with Mindvalley, and interviews with influential figures like Elon Musk, Richard Branson, and Arianna Huffington.
Shōgun is a historical novel that chronicles the end of Japan's Azuchi-Momoyama period and the dawn of the Edo period. The story centers around John Blackthorne, an English navigator who becomes shipwrecked in Japan and becomes embroiled in the complex political dynamics of the region. Blackthorne must navigate a foreign culture, learn the language, and adapt to the customs of feudal Japan, all while being caught in the midst of a power struggle between powerful daimyōs, particularly Toranaga and Ishido. The novel explores themes of cultural clash, adaptation, political intrigue, and personal transformation, providing a vivid portrayal of the collision between Eastern and Western cultures[3][5][2].

He reveals how to redefine success on your own terms, embracing simplicity, and uncovering your unique edge in a rapidly changing world.
