So many books ,so little timeâ€? - Franz Kafka Franz Kafka is not alone. We are all inundated. The human race publishes a book every thirty seconds. As a stack, the more than 100,000 business books published yearly in the United States alone, is the height of a 9 story building and the roughly 800 million words contained in them will take close to 7 years to read. Hidden in these books, like needles in haystacks, are knowledge nuggets that can change lives and turn situations and businesses around. You do not want to miss these ideas. One great idea is all it takes to shoot YOU to the top! bookGUTS keeps you up to date with the current knowledge that shape our world today by distilling trends, thoughts and ideas crystallised by authors in amazing books and offering them to you in fun, highly visual and bite-sized formats that fit your learning style and lifestyle.ď Ž


Great Selection of Books “There are too many books in the world to read in a single lifetime; you have to draw the line somewhere.” - Diane Setterfield, The Thirteenth Tale What is novel today is obsolete tomorrow. One key way to stay informed is by reading books. However, in a world awash with information including those in books, not everything should have your attention. Regarding the essential need to read business and self-help books, we shield you from modern day information overload! We select only the best from the thousands of business and self-help books published every year. Our aim is to offer fresh, time-tested and actionable ideas or knowledge. We are no purveyors of platitudes. Our summaries are dense with content and without fluff, providing a quick read, listen or watch in typically 15 minutes. As the name bookGUTS suggests, we gut the books and render the knowledge, ideas, and insights in plain view. We feature only the latest, the relevant and the classic business and selfhelp books. Today’s fastpaced world is anchored on information. There’s much value to early access to knowledge and information. Those who are first to obtain and act on relevant information are at a clear-cut advantage.

Life Application “Knowing is not enough; we must apply.” – Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe It has been noted that the gap between ignorance and knowledge is much less than the gap between knowledge and action. Information is simply a tool; its use is what makes the difference. Knowledge isn’t power. Only applied knowledge is power. bookGUTS provides a simple life application workbook to aid the application of the ideas, insights and knowledge gathered from the business and personal development books we feature. They are made quite simple but don’t be fooled by their simplicity. They provide the required framework and hook for action and application.

Tied to a unique and simplified Getting Things Done [GTD] method, we make it possible for you to derive maximum value by the use and application of the knowledge gained 


Lifestyle Compliant "You can't teach people everything they need to know. The best you can do is position them where they can find what they need to know when they need to know it." – Seymour Papert
