At tender age in my life, the concepts of my belief has been on Christ which relate to faith, thought and gave birth to my goals and value. With this concept, all things I think of or hope for has been working for me. I never see myself think of something without result, it may delay but it will eventually materialized. Delay is not denial. I think big and right. My thinking to get graduate job as undergraduate because I don’t see anything new in what graduates are doing that I can’t do. I got the Job and I was performing very well because of my first thought and idea behind my thinking. World is expecting you to manifest with your thought. Man without right thought will definitely manifest what he has and the it’s product may not be ok for the community he stays and he become irrelevant in the society. Your life is in your thought.

3. What are the most important new ideas or concepts you learned from this book? Please Explain. With this book, I learnt that you can become whatever you choose to be with your right thinking and vision with focus.

Your thought determine your level of happiness, well being, future, career, richer or poorer (think right and big)Your destiny is in your thought. Don’t ever play with your thought. Your background has nothing to do with your future, you can change your world. What it takes to change your world is already given to you i.e. power of your thought. Your thought will manifest your character and that is what will give birth to you future. It take your good character to reach top but right think to maintain top. Hmmn, the thought of man is evil that is why there is little or none manifestation of greatness in the society today. We are counting high level of poverty instead of greatness. I got the wisdom and the secret behind greatness in life and what it takes to maintain it. I belief I will impact many life with this great, inspiration book. This is wholesome. The facts below are powerful worth quoting

* Act is the blossom of thought, and joy and suffering are its fruit; thus does a man garner in the sweet and bitter fruitage of his own husbandry.

* Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions, but when he realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the hidden soil and seeds of his being out of which circumstances grow; he then becomes the rightful master of himself.

* You will be what you will to be; Let failure find its false content In that poor word, “environment,” But spirit scorns it, and is free.

* Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self-control. Its presence is an indication of ripened experience.

* Strong pure, and happy thoughts build up the body in vigor and grace. The body is a delicate and plastic instrument, which responds readily to the thoughts by which it is impressed, and habits of thought will produce their own effects, good or bad, upon it.

* Those who are not prepared for the apprehension of a great purpose, should fix the thoughts upon the faultless performance of their duty, no matter how insignificant their task may appear. Only in this way can the thoughts be gathered and focused, and resolution and energy be developed. Once this is done, there is nothing which may not be accomplished.

* A man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts. He can only remain weak, abject, and miserably by refusing to lift up his thoughts.

* Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals. Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts. For out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.

* The strong, calm man is always loved and revered. He is like a shade-giving tree in a thirsty land, or a sheltering rock in a storm. Who does not love a tranquil heart, a sweet-tempered, balanced life? It does not matter whether it rains or shines, or what changes come to those who possess these blessings, for they are always serene and calm. That exquisite poise of character that we call serenity is the last lesson of culture. It is the flowering of life, the fruitage of the soul. It is precious as wisdom–more desirable than fine gold. How insignificant mere money-seeking looks in comparison with a serene life. A life that dwells in the ocean of truth, beneath the waves, beyond the reach of the tempests, in the Eternal Calm!

Before a man can achieve anything, even in worldly things, he must lift his thoughts above slavish animal indulgence. He may not, in order to succeed, give up all animalistic and selfishness, necessarily, but a portion of it must, at least, be sacrificed. A man whose first thought is bestial indulgence could neither think clearly nor plan methodically. He could not find and develop his latent resources and would fail in any undertaking. Not having begun to manfully control his thoughts, he is not in a position to control affairs and to adopt serious responsibilities. He is not fit to act independently and stand alone. But he is limited only by the thoughts that he chooses.

Discover the potential in you and how to turn things around, don`t settle for the least and don’t be ok with your best. It is not what you are destined that matter but what do you like and want? Do`t ever compare yourself with others and don’t allow what people called you to determine your future. Bring out the man in you and let it reflected in your action and attitude .I rather prefer to be foolish when doing it and be a wise later than to be wise when doing it and be foolish at last .Let the reasons why doing things be know unto you and be on top with your right focus. Take whatever price it takes to make life difference from others. Don`t allow people to take you out of your thought, let your thought triumph, you may be neglected but impact your own generation and let them realize that there is greater glory awaits them if they belief that they can do all things. Your focus will make you to discovered more things about life. There is more to life than living, eating and enjoying ,make your purpose of living well know to people and don’t be an ordinary person. Try to show examples from where you are and make yourself equal to them in other to gain them. Every law can be suspend because of you to be fulfilled and cross to the other side. Try as much as possible to stay with your followers in time of trouble, for them to realize the reality of greatness. You can become whatever you choose to be in life, matter of choice and time.

Always ready to learn new things that will help you to make decision and create problems that will leads to great solution for yourself to solve. Don`t ever see yourself as failure. Winners never quit and quitters never win, any failure is challenges for you to do it in better way and another way. You can turn mountain if you desired to do so. Nothing is impossible.

Whenever you are moving, little or none will stay with you because of your vision, don’t let that one distract or shift your attention from your target. By the time you are thru, you can always help those that are ready to reach top as well, if they are truly desired it. Make your uniqueness a glaring one that can’t be hid or overcome as you progress in life. Forget where you are coming from and what you need, strife to survive because of your future and focus. Don’t minimize your potential , discovered the potential deposited in you and make use of it. Don’t let the potential be utilized by soil when you get to the grave. Make it happen when you can still make it
Love people that are not in support of your moving forward and let the shame be on them

PsychoCybernetics 2000
Assement by Arajulu Tubosun Emmanuel (Nigeria)

1. What Ideas were personally most important to you in this book? Do not simply list the ideas, but explain or discuss why they were important to you, using personal examples.

-Success instinctive
-Inbuilt guidance
-Having realistic image of success
-Moving ahead by broken old habit and create the new one
-Increase your ability of self esteem
-Concentration on where you are up to
-Creativity of ideal
-Sharpen your belief
-Time for everything(Stress less life)
– Set your Target
-Failure is the key to success
-Life is simple & flexible
-Controlling your Emotion
-Exposure

The desire for attention, recognition, honor, success and fame is what people are running after. Even then there is no guarantee of success because human instinctive beliefs are there, it will work.

Natural, instinctive behavior is not always appropriate in life. Hence, it is important to make an effort to produce behavioral patterns that lead to productive and effective self esteem which will eventually leads to success.

Natural behavior is based on subjective responses that can often lead not only to negative feelings such as insecurity but also to mistaken perceptions concerning the intentions of other people.

Consequently, behavioral skills that are more constructive include a proven facility to communicate positively and confidently with colleagues at all levels; the swift and generous recognition of the achievements of others; the ability to learn mistakes and failures; and a general approach that is based on collaboration with people around you than competition.

We all have inbuilt guidance that tell us what to do and when to do it and also helps to achieve our target. Our inbuilt guidance is the one moving us around, having realistic image of success to guide you helps a lot. Breaking the old habit and build a new one that will leads you to everlasting joy may be hard and difficult but it worth it.

Increase your abilities and power of self esteem to activate your uniqueness and remove any form of things that will not allow you to see beyond.

Focus on where you are going not where you are coming from, yesterday has gone for ever. The more you think about where you are. the more you hinder your success

Change your past record of failure to success , discover yourself and don’t ever settle down for least which people are expected of you. Don’t allow your best to be the maximum. What people say about you does not matter but what did you say and know about yourself.

Your Image determine either you are physically, financially and spiritually failure or not. You can change your story and write new story about yourself, it may take time to achieve this but is achievable. Delete the old record from your system, insert new data full of ideal, familiarized and train yourself on your new sheet for lasting usage by using it everyday.

Your life is a reflection of what you conceived in your subconscious mind and once you agreed with it that settled the matter and other idea become useless .There is no negative self esteem that CRAFT can’t change if you allow it to work.

There will be difficulties and hard time when trying to reposition yourself but don’t compromise if you mean the business, take your stand.
You are responsible for your life and thought at any given time. Imagination is powerful than belief, it may change your belief if your care is not taken. There is power in imagination, your imagination determine your success or failure. What you can imagine is what you will get.

Everything becomes possible with your imagination. Create time to access yourself and accept all positive images as valid and helpful.

Your belief determine how far you can go in life and how your future will look like. You can overcome and set yourself free from false by readiness to change and realize the wrong place you found yourself.

To achieve your success in life, you must also give time for relaxation of brain to visualize your dream. Set yourself free from stress, it will help you to play the role that will materialize the right vision, belief and imagination. Turn your stress to success by taking your stress period to explore what will change your mind and world.

There is need for your to set yourself goals, it is not possible to achieve what is not well plan.

Your Family, Emotional problems, career etc should not be an hindrance for you to move forward always take time to appreciate your physical and spiritual life
Don’t allow the fear of failure to determine how far you can go in life and what people says about you.

Discipline yourself with priority settings, don’t think something is too big to achieve at its time. Make your priority realistic all the time.

How you handle life matter because life is fragile, handle it with care. Respect people you come across in your ways in life and make your mind open to advice.

Don’t hide your emotional feelings, relationship etc matter in life as you stepped up. You need to Know whom you are to overcome your problems in life . Discover yourself today.

2. Can you relate the ideas or concepts in this book to your personal circumstances in life such as your relationships, your beliefs, your goals, your values, etc? Please use personal examples in your explanation.

My imagination and belief is what make me whom am today, I belief and I have strong imagination that I can never search for a job for day before getting one, it has been working for me. I’m striving with the rest but I have the key now (CRAFT) to change my belief, imagination, relationship with people, relaxation of brain to release myself from frustration and Self esteem etc. Failure has been kind of fear that I nurture in my life for sometimes but I learnt that I can overcome it not only that I can overcome but turn it success.

3. What are the most important new ideas or concepts you learned from this book? Please Explain.

This great book has exposed me to a lot of things about life generally not how to succeed in life alone but the path and patterns of things that hinder our success in life and some other things that contribute to our physical body. How to overcome the major challenges in life and what it takes to overcome them. Your beliefs, goals, and target and results are what make life, for you to be succeed in life you must follow the pattern. Your inner man contribute half and your body contributed half of it as well. So, for you to achieve what worth achievable in life you must subject your body to discipline and exposure to a lot of thing that will contributed to your progress in life. Try to be an opened minded person that respect others privacy and their ethics.

4. Has this book challenged or changed your thinking in any way? If so, explain how?

This book has taught me about self esteem, my belief about life that whatever
I conceived in mind and my imagination is worth working for and achievable by prioritizing my target and free myself from every form of stress and emotional problems.

Everything about life depends on the way you handle it but life is very easy, straightforward and simple while others are complaining, you can be among the jubilating ones that found life interesting and worth living. Whenever nothing seems worthwhile, keep moving and hopeful. Turn impossibility into action that will engage your brain working.

Don’t ever think you are alone, that there is no one cares or insecure in life. Respect people and relate with people very well and engage in discussion if possible to gain the ideal and know their mentality about life. For you to move forward in life you have to acknowledge your worth and work on your weakness, by having mentality of success in you.

Belief in your capacity and seeing beyond yourself. create great opportunities that will lead to success for yourself. Evaluate yourself from time to time is another key point that I got in this book, it will help you to maintain your stature, control your stress ,measure your achievements ,Your relationship with individual/races and reprogramming your life if the need arise.

The major secret about life has been revealed in this book and the fact remain the same that you can get more in life with less effort , if you don’t relent and trap by perfection. it depends on your belief and your imagination by adjusting your thermostat and keep moving to the next level. Don’t try to isolate yourself from visible reality that will help you to attain next level, it can be friend or co-workers or anything. Relief yourself stress for growing thinking and imagination

The main idea behind the Authors mind is for all his readers to become their real self, no matter the condition or the situation. The key to open the strong room where the reader’s treasures are kept is within their reach. The Author makes them to realize that they are suffering and the inner man is sad just because they lack the tactics to free themselves. Moreover, they have chosen to do the right thing at the wrong time without proper time planning. Time is one of the major destiny determinants but once you missed it, you are on the wrong track which could lead you to unfulfilled destination.

I will start by saying all things are possible, only if you are willing to make it possible. The elements of possibilities are in your hands and you are the only person that can take them. Possibilities in life are in stages and arranged accordingly, meaning that whatever you suppose to do in the morning must not be postponed and prolong till tomorrow. Life are in stages. Life in stage 1 is quiet different from life in stage 2, each stage with its own elements and challenges and you can’t build a strong tower with a faulty foundation- Meaning that you must solidify stage 1 before moving to the next stage otherwise the first stage will be fault and it will definitely affect the last stage. Our life is in stages and they are all in our hands. We are the maker of our destiny; we mould it to suit our purpose a time but not fulfilling purpose. We diverted/derail from the master plan purpose in most of the time just because we are afraid of future or failure, when we have not even near it at all. Some people die with unfulfilled destiny just because they can’t realize their purpose for living and in most time, some discovered lately

There are wrong and right moments of truth while climbing the steps of success/moving in the stages of life but your ability to yield the strength of your power is what will make you later. During the moment of truth, it is always good to create an environment that is full of happiness and make it conducive for your thinking to expand. As it goes on, let the faith arise in you to meet the food for thought there, in which its wisdom lies to manifest the good work. Justice must prevail in whatever you are doing and word must be guided with wisdom as not to fall victim of unwanted circumstances. My journey in life will never be someone else journey, if others are disengaging themselves from the journey because of failure, I don’t have. It take consistent, watchful, commitment and prayers to get there.

2. What were the seven ideas which were personally most important to you and why? List these seven ideas followed by an explanation after each one as to why it was important to you. Use personal examples from your own life.

Personal inventory with reference to author outline
Much more interested in this quote because it’s the fundamental of everything we are doing in life today. You have to accounts for every single damn that involve you. Particularly, your time and money which are the basics things that has a vital role to play in inventory of your life. Going by time- you can’t be studying and dancing in club house at the same time, you have to take one and do it at a time. ONE THING AT TIME. Meaning, once you messed up with second, chances of gaining another second is very slim if you will even get it at all. Here the issue of money set in, money is good and it also has its own impact on life. When you take money in excess, it becomes your God and you become slave. Money has to server you not you serving money, be in charge of money, control money and don’t allow money to dominate your life.

Beware of these Habits
These habits are what I called destiny destroyer. They hold you tight as if you were born together until you read books like this or get yourself deliver somehow before receiving your freedom

Use cosmic Habit force
I was meant to understand that your achievement in life will not only comes because of destiny but many times we achieved destiny with focus and more concentration by making our habits a meaningful one that can fetch us something or take us somewhere.

Maintaining Sound health
There is a proverb that says health is wealth…..Having the whole keys of success without doing the right thing to sustain your health is just a time wasted. Understand your body language better, what to do and when to do them. Do not do things because you see people doing them. Make it a point of duty to do whatever you are doing because you want to do them not because you see a friend doing it or you are trying to belong and end up where you don’t expect. Life has many things to offer and what is the best for me maybe the worst thing for you. Don’t expect twins to have the same character and same life model, which is life and what make it differ. All your habits must be well established with your own points which you can always ref to as the major thing in your own life.

Cultivate Creative Vision
I learnt that you have to do something that provokes your spirit to be at alert all the time. If you can wake up your inner man to action, you can confront any form of challenges, your work will be tested with fire and it will still be standing in the midst of trouble. Don’t forget that you can only achieve this if only belief in going extra miles to accomplish some challenging tasks and making impossible possible.

Learn from adversity and defeat
Everyone face defeat and adversity but ability to take your stand is what make you e.g. I have been facing challenges for sometimes now, at a point I have to stop my IIGL course, thou not willingly but Mr. Michael encourage me to resume even at a point of given up. He advised and made me to commit myself. To worsen the whole situation; I resumed the course but no time to study very hard for my assessment because of inevitable factors around me. I stated the write up some few minute ago, all of sudden the system hanged and I have to shut down completely to restart, only to restart and lost what I have done. Yes, that was enough to close the chapter but if I close that is defeat in the midst of adversity. No life without challenges but what are you doing to overcome your challenges. You can’t make challenges but challenges can make you, why do you have to allow yourself to be fool with challenges by allowing him to dominate and control your life when you confront it

Inspire Teamwork
A tree can’t make the forest; you need people around you to make it in life. The raiment that dropped from other tress in the bush is very good added advantage to a tree. Making other as to make you, you need to build a UN formidable force around you to make your company worthwhile. Don’t just build team but co-partner in progress that will add to your positively.

The power of controlled attention
Your benchmarking of success in life is concentration in which remote of destiny is attached itself to. Concentration introduces new realm of idea for progress in life and it must not be under emphasize if you are really on your to greater height where only eagles can reach

3. How will these ideas or lessons help you in a practical way, both in your daily personal life and in helping you to create a better world?

From what I have learnt so far, I thought I have arrived but with the new understand I got from this book is nothing compare to what I have be able to read and understand. Indeed, if I want a positive change in my life, I must be ready to sacrifice time and resources for something with positive result. My thinking towards life must change and not just to change but to affect something reasonable that can take my life to a new realm. Discipline can’t be under emphasize in issues like this, that is where the major home works comes in. I think a lot about current situation to judge my future but from here I learnt that current has nothing much to do with the future only if you can control your future from now on by putting proper measure in places. In addition, my attitude to life must be more firm but not rigid in other accomplish my purpose for living.

4. Quotes: Are there any statements which the author made that particularly got your attention? If so, please quote them and comment as to why they were important to you.

“Tolerance is the disposition to be patient and fair toward those whose opinions, practice and belief differ from yours“

This is one of the things I have been struggling with for some time- Ability to tolerate. Now, it is very clear that it is applicable to all ages, sizes, culture & Ethics. I thought I was the only going through the same thing but with what I read now it’s very glaring that in one way or the other each and every one of us tolerate each other. We must be able to tolerate each other since we are differing in belief, opinion, belief and other wise.

5. Is there anything in the book that you do not understand or are unclear about, or are there ideas which you disagree with and, if so, why?

None that I’m aware of, the book is full loaded and I will go for more of them. I will also recommend it for people

6. Did the book contain exercises for the reader to complete? If so, did you complete all of the exercises and did you find them helpful?

Yes. They are very helpful; I think I contributed my quota to the book from there.

The New Dynamics of Winning
Assessment by Arajulu Olatubosun (Nigeria)

1. What is the main idea that the author is trying to convey in the book?

The forces behind winner stories are; Faith, Vision, Determination, hope, believe Zeal and yourself. Winners never quit and quitters never win. When you embarked on any journey in life, you must have a very clear vision of what you really want to achieve. Secondly, determination will make you to concentrate on your vision while fueling (Zeal) your winning strategies to continue the journey of course moving forward without relent. Lastly, the determinant-world shakers. The steps mentioned above will graduate you to the real vision accomplishment. We should not be ignorant of the world we are living; it is full of uncertainties. We can’t really predict what tomorrow holds for us. Does that hinder us from moving and accomplish our vision? The outstanding answer should be NO, if the answer is NO, what do we do then? 1. We have to develop a very strong heart of a champions where defected cant be pronounce. You must have a burning desire/willingness to pay the price of a victor. Thou, the traitor may think of its impossibilities but you know your victory is around the corner.

Since you know your target, how do you intend to get there? Nobody is born with a victory skill but ability to learn and master the key of a successful life style is the major point that we all needed to have in other to get there. Otherwise, we are far behind schedule of winning.

Champions are not born but they are made. I will cull my champions formula as Desires + motive + hardworking = champions; ability to transform your burning desires into real actions that is viable.

Chances of getting things right at once is very slim unless you are determined.

The determination now goes beyond powerful dictator that controls the path of Hero. The dictator is FEAR, it cross the path of hero and make them fall unexpectedly if the drive to win is not on the stable heart.

The fear we are referring to here may come in different directions and ways e.g

Fear of unforeseen future-You future can permit changes. It’s only neither change that is nor permit in life. Therefore, we should not be scare or living so conveniently to the extent that change will become uncalled for in the process of life transformation.

Fear of uncertainties: We move very fast in the process/ shadow of life transformation. In the process we consider negative impact on life a lot. If it fails what next and what will I do when things are going wrong? These are the questions we keep on asking ourselves from time. We have been questioning ourselves over and over again, on the same issue of serious killer diseases that have been affecting human generations without any solution. The killer disease is FEAR…..can there be any remedy for the disease? YES. The answer is what makes a winner. Winners derived pleasures in doing what the losers are running away from….they see it as the strength, they are lovers of challenges. Challenges lighten the path to do more and focus. They know what to do, when to do it and how to do it. Winners’ strength makes ways for them when things are not working roasting for them. Winners will never see themselves relaxing when they ought to conquering.

The people around you, that share your ideal and vision must not be the determinant, rather a role player in your progress. Point breaking in a journey or history of life is very important. Don’t take a long unending journey at once, rather make it easy to crack journey otherwise you will break in the journey process. Don’t relent after getting silver, when you quiet know that silver is not your optimum goal but gold. Don’t forget what you have to take along in the journey, as you are embarking on journey of greatness; you must not forget self discipline, proper planning and time management. In summary, don’t forget that nothing good come easily, you have to work very hard for outstanding result with enough challenges on your way up there.

2. What were the seven ideas which were personally most important to you and why? List these seven ideas followed by an explanation after each one as to why it was important to you. Use personal examples from your own life.

i. So far the lesson has gone beyond what I thought. In all ramifications, I learnt that you have to make yourself; nobody is going to make you. I resumed back to this course after some many challenges because I wish to and embark on the journey because I choose to.

ii. Your inner man must work very hard as ever before believing in reality and seeing beyond the face of life. Don’t relent or relax on past glory or someone that promised you. you have to secure it with what it takes e.g Someone get me a job but he did not work for me. I tried all my possible to build myself to the level of what I want when working very hard is not enough to accomplish the mission. Of course, I have to pay the price; what it takes to acquire it not to get there by following the steps

iii. It all begin with a dream, following decision making which will automatically take us to the fundamental basic of moment of the truth. At this Point, my decision is either I go forward but I keep on hearing the voice of the past asking me the danger in giant step that I’m about to take. Must I allow that unclean thing to tackle or take away my blessings? Nope I will move forward to perfection and protect the interest of my real self

iv. My fame, fortune and integrity inquires discipline and time conscious. Let people know me for who I am.

v. I see myself accomplishing my vision not by mouth but in reality. I achieve easily if my mind set is at rest, seeing the result manifesting. I recalled when I was invited for an interview in an organization, without having the requirement, I floor them. I knew it that from the inception that I am not a failure….

vi. Never assume you know it all, in the process of progressing in life, learn from people that know better. You need the pass-bye knowledge to make it. I joined an organization with the mind set of knowing it but after some time, the repercussion stated materialized. Eventually, I was made to know that assumption is the father of master failure

vii. Abilities to coordinate make you a relevant, achievers and outstanding leaders with a clear vision. I learnt that to be a leader is a mess but be a servant leader. Don’t wait to be serve but serve others. My boss in office will never react like a boss rather like a servant…I learnt the secret of leadership by example from him otherwise nothing else. He will do it for you not you doing it while he watches.

3. How will these ideas or lessons help you in a practical way, both in your daily personal life and in helping you to create a better world?

Everybody want to be at winning side, controlling their world, mentioned among the nobles, achieving outstanding success/result but how many people are following the principal of the strategy of winners?

In fact, for you to be somebody you must do something and doing something might not be enough but something extra ordinary.

There is an adage in my dialect that says “Anybody that want to take honey from the rock must not check the mouth of his/her axe that is using to break the rock otherwise you will be discourage’’

Life is full of different challenges at a different stages, it’s only a champions that go through all the stages gloriously.

Champions with well defined objectives will move in the market world but it will not allow the noise in the market to distract him otherwise he/she will loose his/her focus once he /she look at other directions market will not be distract

4. Quotes: Are there any statements which the author made that particularly got your attention? If so, please quote them and comment as to why they were important to you.

Quote: when we feel threatened by an aggressor, we either defend ourselves by attacking our adversary; we try to escape harm’s way by running in the opposite direction or hiding

Facing challenges to overcome must be the winner’s motto.

I could have let disappointment defeat me, I could have just gone home, telling myself, ‘You wanted to go fishing, but the soldier did not come, so that’s that. You need to break that desire down into smaller parts and reach your main goal by what I call the stair-step method.

The complete sentence here really catches my attention because nothing can divert your attention from achieving your main goal if you are focus

5. Is there anything in the book that you do not understand or are unclear about, or are there ideas which you disagree with and, if so, why?

The book is full of mystery. Hmnnn, from each book I read, I think I should be able to come out with outstanding project that will transform people around me. The major thing that bothers me a lot is how the author come across examples he used in his illustration. I’m wondering if they are real or abstract.

6. Did the book contain exercises for the reader to complete? If so, did you complete all of the exercises and did you find them helpful?

Yes, I have 21 Days assignment there, which I have not been able to complete. I take one assignment and am going to take another 7 days to complete everything.

7. Was there anything you read in the book that you would like to comment on that was not covered in the previous questions? If so, please comment

None, not even a single sentence. Everything is covered under the questions and they are well captured
