Breaking the Mold: Remodeling your Way to Success by Fabian Videla describes how a young boy from Mendoza, Argentina, stretches beyond the normal to live a version of life he has always envisioned for himself. Fabian Videla teaches how, through dedication and hard work, he can create a business that is sufficient even without his expertise. He takes us through the journey of his childhood and young adult years and how lessons learned during these periods helped shape the CEO he is today.
 
The book contains nuggets that are needed for a successful enterprise, helps inspire individuals to desire more for their future, and also expounds on certain values that are often needed on the path to success. The stories and experiences fabricated within the pages of these books were more like a springboard, throwing me into the highest clouds of motivation. Through Fabian's story, I immediately felt the need to do more with my life; it gave me the urge to want my dreams brought into actualization. The crucial lessons learned from each business he ventured into were put together in this book to help others learn from their own experiences.
 
The reason I like this book is its simplicity. Its narrative flows like a clear stream, immersing me in relatable characters and experiences. Every page feels like a treasure trove of wisdom, resonating with me deeply. The lucidity of the story strips away unnecessary layers, leaving profound messages to shine brightly. Drawing morals from each page feels instinctual, like unravelling life's complexities one simple truth at a time. I would recommend this book to those who draw inspiration and motivation from real-life success stories because this book is a solid one.
 
The reason I dislike this book is that it left me hungry for more of it, akin to Oliver Twist; it leaves me wanting. Its beautifully woven success story fails to quench my curiosity, leaving questions unanswered and plot threads dangling. Despite its simplicity, there's an unsettling sense of incompleteness. It serves as a mere appetizer, teasing without delivering the full feast of resolution. While I appreciate its straightforward narrative, the lack of closure frustrates me.
 
I gave this book a rating of 4 out of 5 stars as the author's narrative style is captivating, drawing readers into the story of his journey from a young boy in Mendoza, Argentina, to a successful CEO. The book's simplicity makes it accessible and relatable, with each page offering nuggets of wisdom and inspiration. However, its failure to fully address all aspects of Videla's story and provide closure may leave some readers feeling unsatisfied, akin to craving more after a tantalizing appetizer. The book was exceptionally well-edited and error-free.
