 10X Rules By Grant Cardone

Summary

10X Rules is the 1st book I am reading, which is written by Grant Cardone. Grant Cardone is an American Author. The 10X Rules was published in 2011. The book gives you 10 rules which will help you to achieve great success. 

You can say its a self help book. The book says that you should set a target which is 10X greater than what you can achieve. Most of the people made a mistake in their life, they never set a big goal, they always doubts their ability. 

Now this was the one side of coin. The other side is 10X thinking. The book has also covered the earning part. Real cash earnings. You must multiply money by 10 that you think you can earn. You must identify the steps those will lead to achieve this goal. 

10X Rule is about setting big goals and achieving them by following right methods.

Overview

10X rule has total 23 chapters which are able to teach you, How you can achieve any goal in your life and about setting a 10X big goal than you think you can achieve. It also changed my view and the definition of success. 

The 10X Rule tries to teach yoy how hard it is to be successful in life and to achieve your goals. What efforts does it takes to achieve goals in life. Sometimes you have to do sacrifices in the process but its just a small cost in the path of achieving your set target. 

• So basically what is this 10X Rule. 

According to Grant Cardone 10X Rule is the holy grail for those who desire success by establishing right levels of actions and thinking that guarantees success and ensure that you will continue operating at these levels throughout your career and rest of your life 

• What is the meaning of Success?

Success is the continuous, never-ending investment in yourself. Cardon described success as a huge lawn which is well maintained. 

Also according to Grant Cardon Success is the degree or measure of attaining some desired object or end. Most of the successful people believes that they must continue with their efforts to realise new goals. 

• Basic Mistakes that leads to failure

1. Setting targets too low which doesn't carry enough potential in them
2. Underestimating the main pillars of success, like Money, Energy, Resources and so on.
3. One of the biggest mistake is, spending more time in comparison with others rather than improving yourself.
4. Underestimated amount of adversity that required to over come in order to achieve goals.

Grant Cardone explained how hard it will be to achieve your goals. Achieving everything 10X than you currently have is depends on how Disciplined and Methodical you are. Without applying required efforts it will hard to achieve anything in your life. 

• Success is our Duty

According to Grant Cardone Crybabies, whiners, and victims just don’t do well at attracting or creating success. It’s not that they aren’t capable; it’s just that people who typically succeed are required to take big actions—and it is impossible to take big actions if you don’t take responsibility. It is equally impossible to do something possible when you are spending your time making excuses

Mind set plays an important role in achieving your goals. If you're thinking about your self imposed limitations then this is not going to help you at all. Grant Cardon claims that this is the main reason behind most of the people are unsuccessful in their life. 

Grant said that It is your duty to be successful not just to yourself but for your Legacy, Your Family and Your Future Generation.  If anyone wondering that there is a shortage of success, Grant says there is no scarsity of success unlike the manufacturing.

Success is an Infinite game using finite rules to play.

• The Four Degrees of Action

Grant says You will know you are stepping into the realm of massive action when you (1) create new problems for yourself and (2) start to receive criticism and warning from others.

Grant says you must take actions in order to get success. 

The Four Degrees of Action are

• Do nothing. In this degree of action, you’re working to make excuses
• Retreat. In this degree of action, you’re moving in the opposite direction of success
• Take normal levels of action. You do enough to get by (the majority dwell here)
• Take massive action. You take immense, unstoppable action toward the target

First two actions leads to failure, third one quiet better than first two, but the fourth action will lead you to the mastery of 10X rules.

The fourth rule is the most important one. It wont be easy to go with it, you will face a massive chain of problems if you go with the 4th one.

• Why Average is A Failing Formula

Grant Cardone says that Average is an incorrect method. It assumes everything works steadily and which is not true. 

Grant Cardone provided few take aways

1. Dominate Territori 
2.  Make the ask
3. Always expand 
4. Never rest on your laurels

Weakness of 10X Rule

• I think Grant Cardone is asking for too much to do

Strengths of 10X Rule
