This book delves into the Japanese concept of ikigai, which translates to 'the reason for living' or 'the happiness of always being busy.' The authors, Héctor García and Francesc Miralles, travel to Okinawa to uncover the secrets behind the longevity and happiness of its residents. Drawing from psychology, spirituality, and philosophy, including concepts like Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s 'flow,' the book provides practical tips and insights on how to find purpose and meaning in life. It emphasizes the importance of staying active, nurturing friendships, living in the moment, and pursuing passions to achieve a long and happy life.
In 'The 10X Rule,' Grant Cardone introduces the principle of setting targets that are ten times what you think you want and then taking ten times the action you think it will take to accomplish those targets. The book stresses the importance of massive thoughts followed by massive actions, perseverance, positivity, and a domination mentality. Cardone argues that success is not an option but a duty, and it requires a mindset shift to achieve extraordinary results. He emphasizes the need to take full responsibility for one's success, to be obsessed with goals, and to overcome fear and obstacles through persistent action.

Most people overcomplicate getting started.
They think they need:
- A huge audience
- Fancy branding
- Some genius business idea
They’re wrong.
You need one thing: To solve a painful problem for a specific person that’s easy to find online.
In the latest Kickoff Sessions, Adam Power breaks down a step-by-step roadmap to hitting $10K-$20K/month online.
Here’s the playbook:
- Pick a high-value skill (ads, copy, automation, client acquisition)
- Package it into a simple offer (charge for outcomes, not tasks)
- Find your first 5-10 clients (cold outreach + organic content)
- Deliver results & retain clients (low churn = high profit)
- Stack cash before scaling (get to $10K/month first)
Most people stay stuck because they:
- Never put in the reps
- Focus on learning instead of doing
- Chase shiny objects instead of doubling down
Adam’s 7-10 rule will change how you work.
If you’re tired of watching others win while you overthink—this is the exact roadmap you need.
