The Potentialist: The Pursuit of Wisdom by Ben Lytle

Posted

Ben Lytle's second Potentialist book focuses on the pursuit of wisdom. 

He shows that it is possible to exercise the muscle of wisdom to create a better quality of life and relationships, and help us reach our potential. 

Similarly to the first book in the series, which focused on potential, he is encouraging us to be the best we can be. In his words: “I will do my best, to be my best, and leave the world and the people I meet a little better than I found them.”

Lytle takes us through a thought-provoking exploration of the future and how we as individuals can prepare for the rapid changes ahead. The book offers a unique perspective on the intersection of technology, society, psychology and personal growth.

Preparing for and living in The New Reality, our future will shaped by technological advancements and societal shifts. To thrive, we must learn how to adapt to this "new reality".

Wisdom, as defined by Lytle, is the ability to apply knowledge and experience to make sound judgments. Making informed decisions based on relevant information will be crucial in a world where we have more information at our finger tips than we know what to do with it. 

Throughout the book are dotted various exercises, to help the reader prepare for the new reality including developing wisdom and potential. This include cultivating a growth mindset, building strong relationships, and developing financial literacy.

Despite the challenges presented in the book, I was left with a feeling that it is possible to harness the power of technology and innovation to create a better world.

I highly recommend that you read this and his previous Potentialist book. I found them to be extremely inspiring and encouraging. 


"The Potentialist: The Pursuit of Wisdom" is available from tomorrow 8 October 2024.


I am looking forward to the third book in the series, which according to a comment in this book will cover how some people and relationships lift us to become our best, whereas others hold us back or destroy our potential.

Road Queens by MaryJanice Davidson

I downloaded this book from Netgalley back in August and read about 15% of it before I gave up and jumped onto another book. Since then I have read another 20+ books without coming back to finish this one off. I may come back to it at some point, but most likely not as there are so many other books out there.  Please see below the blurb from the publishers: "From the bestselling author of the Undead series comes a ride through the lives of three estranged friends as they’re reunited by murder (possible frame job) and mayhem (just the way they like it). Operation Starfish has one goal: to remove domestic violence survivors from danger. But when a mission backfires in tragedy, the band of bikers who founded OpStar dissolves the organization and their ride-or-die friendship. Five years later Amanda, Sidney, and Cassandra are brought back together by the same thing that tore them apart when the man who victimized his wife is murdered, and all signs point to Cassandra.
