“The 5 AM Club” narrates the coming together of 3 individuals leading 3 distinct lives. One was an artist yet to unlock his true potential, the second was an entrepreneur that was on the verge of losing all she had worked for, and the third looked very much like a homeless man. They met in an optimization seminar anchored by a well-known pseudo-guru, The Spellbinder.

Halfway through his powerful presentation, The Spellbinder collapsed, and what ensued afterward will take you down a path that will change your life and the lives of the three main characters forever. In the midst of the raucous caused by the Spellbinder’s collapse, these three people got talking. While at it, the entrepreneur and the artist could not help but notice the way the homeless man carried himself — his words and charisma contradicted his looks.

The homeless–looking man spoke of his vast wealth, how he became successful by following the principles of The Spellbinder, which had helped him transcend the norm. He spoke of his knack for surrounding himself with people and things that value the importance of quality. He asserted that this decision had helped him preserve his peace and revamp his joy. By keeping only people that get him around, he learned to express himself freely, without worrying about the stereotype that came with wealth.
It is dangerous to spend time with people that would drain your zeal to become exceptional.
This summary highlights the importance of avoiding people and things that zap your energy. It recommends a morning routine that allows you to master your life and birth the hero that lies within you.
Take excellent care of the front end of your day, and the rest of your day will pretty much take care of itself. Own your morning. Elevate your life. ~ Robin Sharma
second key point

True wealth and fulfillment come from using your life’s work to uplift other people

The artist and the entrepreneur listened as the “homeless” man told them how he had come to see that service to humanity was the sole motivation of all the people that had left an imprint on history. True wealth and fulfillment come when you have subjected your life’s work to uplifting other people. In addition, he condemned today’s social economy that thrives on the narratives that people need to grow up to become successful. This means we often forget to appreciate the little things, and in contrast, we grow accustomed to the ordinary.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
