Part 3/6:
Next on this journey to genius-level thinking is The Road Less Stupid by Keith Cunningham. Praised for its straightforward approach to learning from mistakes, this book emphasizes the importance of avoiding the "dumb tax"—the costly mistakes we make without full information.
Cunningham, often referenced as the "rich dad" in Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad, encourages readers to engage in what he labels "thinking time." This structured exercise involves reflecting on past decisions and distilling insights from both successes and failures. By asking targeted questions at the end of each chapter, readers can mine for gold—actionable lessons that can be applied in future endeavors.
