  “Inner Strength is required to question success, to face failure, and to accept that changes are needed. Further strength is necessary to enact those changes. Churchill said ‘Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.’ This courage can be inspired by competition or any number of external factors, but in the end it has to come from within.
  This is just a paragraph in the book. It is not just about strategy. It is about life. Not everybody is smart enough to dedicate a chapter to questioning success. I learnt a lot from Garry. This is a must read for everyone specially people that are not so competitive. He has a lot to say.”

  “I struggled to go beyond the first part of this book. There are many insights to life detailed in this book and I did not find many that are new. Kasparov's examples are largely derived from chess and his reading of history. Fresh insights on business wisdom were very rare. ”
