Tim's book turns the traditional definition of success on its head. This is refreshing news for those who desire success (don't we all), but who've never quite resonated with society's definition of the term.

Have you ever started reading a book and said "oh damn, this describes me exactly and I feel seen." ?
Well this is that book for me. It best describes my exact feelings on success and why no matter how much I accomplish it is never enough. It is not a failing of who we are but of what the society seems to place on us, but we are not doomed to keep repeating the same mistakes over and over. There is a way to find success and happiness that isnt the conventional wisdom of it. The book does a great job of describing the issue, the alternative way and stories about those that are living this new way. Highly Recommended.

One of the most inspirational and redefining books I have yet to read. Tim Schurrer will truly make you view the definition of success differently from page one. I loved how he was impactful and used real-life examples throughout the book to show the reader you do not have to experience the norm of burnout to be considered successful. A great book for new employees or those who are wondering if they have what it takes to make it as an entrepreneur in this cruel world. Will recommend to all my friends and have already recommended it to my employer.

The Secret Society of Success is a great book about the mindset and heart we bring to our work! It can apply to so many areas of life, not just the work we do to make a living. The chapters are short, easy to read, and full of practical advice. I loved all the real life stories and examples of people who don't define success the way the world does. Anyone would benefit from reading this book, from hourly workers to CEOs to entrepreneurs, no matter what industry or stage of life you’re in. It would make a great gift for high school or college graduates!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This book is an impactful collection of insights and stories of what Tim Schurrer has appropriately titled "The Secret Society of Success". While many stories may include highly recognizable names and brands felt, it felt unexpectedly relatable. Let alone as he bug into the people working behind the scenes. I certainly never would have thought I’d find myself feeling so connected to stories that included experiences of people like LeBron James and Bob Goff.
Tim did a fantastic job of shifting the daunting idea of success to something very attainable. As an entrepreneur I empathize with so much of what Tim shared in his book. Success can feel like something bigger than you. But it’s not when you approach it differently than what you’ve come to expect.
