The Infinite Game.
For most people, life is all about winning or losing, successes or failures. This finite way of thinking may drive short-term results but tends to backfire in the long run. In this book, Simon Sinek urges readers to adopt a different mindset—to play the Infinite Game, where it’s possible to create a new reality that concurrently serves individuals, organizations, communities, and the entire humanity.

Ensure to engage with meaningful and result-oriented conversations. Never take your time as granted and misuse it. I had a conversation with my Mentor in New York, which has created a huge difference in my career life.
