Metaphor of Chinese handcuffs and when struggle get trapped but if push in easily and twist you can get out!
Instead of trying harder, try easier!
Doing the right things imperfectly yields better results than doing the wrong things perfectly.
We doubt the wrong things such as our potential. Instead doubt your limits!
You can let doubt be, but let it be without influence!
ACT AS IF YOUR SUCCESS IS CERTAIN!
Seek failure routinely!
You must trade psychological comfort for high velocity results!
Resistance to change is like psychological soreness! Must give time to work through the soreness.
Comfort is incompatible with quantum leaps.
Start immediately and before you're ready!
You have the power and total control. External circumstances are irrelevant! Assume total responsibility!

This is a partner book to "You2" (You Squared.) It helps to solidify mostly the same points, but comes from a bit different perspective. (I was wondering if he wrote them together, or revisited later and added more after time.) It seemingly could have been consolidated into one book without much difficulty. But, they both stand up fine on their own, and it was a good followup for grounding the information in my brain. I was happy to read it immediately afterwards, and ponder and examine this and my thinking once again. He's onto something very important, and I'm getting it.

I love this simple & basic strategy in inventing your future. Seek failure and get uncomfortable are two of the topics that spoke the most to my first read.
Prichett writes about trying easier instead of harder and suspending disbelief.

Quite the paradigm shift. Welcome failure and the uncomfortable into your life thus realizing your dreams. A fearless attitude for an abundance of opportunities. Truly a remarkable read.

This book is the sequel to You2. The ideas are so excellent for helping one to achieve a goal that requires a quantum leap.

I didn't vibe with Price Pritchett's other book, You 2, but ooph, this one spoke to me.

It's a very short book.The author makes some very good points and presents interesting examples.Your time will be well spent.This book will make you think which is what a book should do.
Definitely worth a read! I'm glad that i read it and you will be too.

I read this book to try to fill in the missing “how� part of You^2. By the end, I still didn’t feel solid or concrete about what I was supposed to do. I felt like this book actually took the first book, cut out all the parts that weren’t about what to do or how to do it, and replayed the rest. It felt a little clearer, just by not having the other stuff taking up space in between, but still not really concrete.
Based on their lengths, I don’t think that can actually be true, but it’s how it felt to me.
Also, “exponential,� “geometric,� and “order of magnitude� are terms that have actual, specific meanings that are not the same as each other. Someone should notify the author of this.
Note to self: this book is in iBooks if you need to find it again. It wasn’t available on Kindle and wasn’t in Scribd.

The Quantum Leap Strategy is a short but insightful guide for anyone looking to achieve massive results in a short time. Pritchett emphasizes taking bold, unconventional actions rather than relying on gradual progress, which is a refreshing approach. The book is concise and to the point, making it easy to absorb the key concepts quickly. While it may feel a bit repetitive at times, the practical advice and motivational tone make it a valuable read for those ready to break free from limiting beliefs and reach new heights.

The term "quantum leap strategy" often refers to making significant, sudden advancements or changes in a particular area, analogous to the quantum leap in physics where an electron jumps from one energy level to another without passing through intermediate states. In business or personal development contexts, it typically involves implementing bold and transformative actions to achieve rapid progress or breakthroughs. This can include embracing innovation, taking calculated risks, and challenging conventional thinking to achieve ambitious goals.

It's the same as You2 . Except You2 is better.
