One of the most important books out there
I really enjoyed this book I have to say, having gone through quite a lot of "self-help books" this does not belong to that category, it belongs to the life-changing ones.Being a trader, this book made me realize I should adapt my strategy to fit my personality instead of trading a plan that's not fully adapted to myself.He also shares methods to maintain our skill once you are at the top of the mountain - which is the most important part if you ask me.If you're unsure if you should buy this book, go listen to the podcast he did with Chats with Traders, that's how I discovered his content and I'm extremely glad I did!

Excellence is a process
Awesome! Awesome! Book. There are many independent variables that lead to excellence but, it's the framework that makes the difference. Accelerating Excellence is the framework that brings the process of Excellence to life!

Debunking 'hustle culture'
I found this is a book that really sets out steps on how to gain success in any field, and keep it. It doesn't romanticize success like what we see on the internet, this book gives you a roadmap to follow to achieve your goals and become elite. It also shows you how to 'win the day' and although much of the habits and routines mentioned in the book I'm already doing, there is things in the book that helped me further refine my habits and routines to further optimise my development.What makes this book stand out though is how it can be read by anyone at any stage of their journey. If you are already well on your way to success, sure, skip the first few chapters but after that all the material has immense value. If you're somebody like me and believe that potential is infinite then this book is fantastic for those 1% gains to further refine yourself.Overall, it's clear to see the work James has put into this book and the stigmas he breaks created by hustle culture like 'no sleep' or 'work harder for longer'. James breaks these down and aims to create an environment of efficiency rather than a romantic one. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book, It's helped further change my life and I'm sure it would help anyone reading this too.
