Illogical
Illogical: Saying Yes to a Life Without Limits | Emmanuel Acho
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
From the New York Times bestselling author of Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man, a call to break through our limits and say yes to a life of infinite possibility. You may know Emmanuel Acho as the host of groundbreaking video series Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man. Or as a New York Times bestselling author. Or as an Emmy-winning television broadcaster. Or as a former linebacker for two NFL franchises. What you probably dont know is that Emmanuel defines his own life with just one word: Illogical. Behind every triumph, every expression of his gifts, Acho has had to ignore what everyone around him called logic: the astronomical odds against making it, the risks of continuing to dream bigger or differently. Instead of playing it safe, at every turn Acho has thrown conventional wisdomlogicout the window. Now, in this revelatory book, hes empowering us all to do the same. Whether its creating the next groundbreaking startup, fighting for change as an activist, or committing to a personal passion, Illogical is the go-to book for all readers ready to become change-makers. With a step-by-step guide to finding our callings and shifting our mindsets, enlivened by stories from Achos life and other illogical pioneers, Acho asks us to replace the limits set for us, and which we set for ourselves, with a world of possibility. Our horizons, he shows us, are endless.

Pickpick

This #NewRelease self-help book is from the author of Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man, which I loved. And while this is good, it didn‘t rise to the level of that book. I don‘t think this will stick with me as much, but still a pick.

Acho gives examples of the times logical or conventional wisdom didn‘t work in his life. E.g. times when he‘s set specific goals that kept him from achieving greater things.

Note: does have ✝️ overtones
