About this book
Regular, everyday success is intuitive: work hard, get rewarded. But what does it take to achieve massive, moonshot-level success?
Leaning on the wisdom of ancient philosophers and Silicon Valley thought leaders alike, Alyssa Mavor's The Art of the Moonshot demystifies the principles behind exponential success. With the proper strategies, small successes can begin to compound endlessly on an upward trajectory. By breaking down concepts into easily-digestible principles with entertaining anecdotes, this book illuminates:
- The secret to creating a brain outside your brain
- How mental models clarify thinking and decision making
- Why 80% of time and energy is often spent on the wrong endeavors
- How hidden force multipliers can amplify even the smallest of positive actions
The Art of the Moonshot equips readers with a personal toolkit to build and propel their mission towards enormous personal and professional success. By exploring the tactics of great achievers - Archimedes to Adam Grant to Adele - as well as taking a deep dive into groundbreaking psychology, game theory, and sociology research, Mavor's book is the final ingredient to realizing a personal moonshot.
Life moves fast, but exponential goals move faster. It's the perfect time to begin.
