Book Review: Rhinoceros Success
Summary: 5 Stars
I first heard about this book 19 years ago and thought it was stupid and wacky at first. Then the man who told be about it, a jewish guy name Albert that he had a net worth in the 7 figure columns and was recommending Rhinoceros Success to all of his sales people.
I told him that I had read Think & Grow Rich and didn't think any book could top that one. He just told me that this book was different, gave me a copy, told me to read it that night and let me know the next day what I thought.
Rhinceros Success was different. It was no Think & Grow Rich but it did have a very powerful message and one that I needed to hear at that time.
This book is told in storybook form and tells us that in this world we have the cows and the rhinos. The cows graze in the pasture with the other cows, unwilling to take a chance at success, thinking that success only comes to those who are lucky, or that they just aren't cut out to be successful. Many live out their lives in fear; they are the lives of quiet desperation that Emerson talked about.
Then there are the Rhinos. These guys, unlike the cows, take charge. Focused and unafraid, thick skinned and unstoppable, they take massive action toward accomplishing their dreams and goals. They understand that success is there for the taking., if only one brings to bear the right training, mindset and work ethic.
Rhinoceros Success is motivational, educational and funny. It doesn't appear on the surface as a book that can teach you the fundamentals of success, but it does and it can.
When I went back the next day to see Albert, I told him that I really enjoyed the book (in reality I was fired up like never before) and I wanted to buy a copy from him. I recommend this book to everyone.
I understand that Rhinoceros Success has sold more than 2.5 million copies in 20 years. I can see why.
