The 1% Mindset: Nietzsche, the Noble Spirit, and Why Low Pay is Good

Why is it that people give up on their self-help? Oliver McCann shows how spiritual quests often miss out the tough-mindedness that the highest performers have behind their agreeable profile. This first book in the series about the 1% concentrates on careers in an age of austerity, cuts, and economic uncertainty. McCann shows how ethics limit the world. Ought and should, he says, have gone beyond their basic purposes for survival and have invaded every corner of our lives. The result is a limited imagination of the could. The book draws on the imaginings of Friedrich Nietzsche to explain how the noble spirited can go beyond religion and rationality in resuming their self-help and creating new values for themselves and the world. The chapters are:

- Why People Give Up on Self-Help
- Why Ethics Need to be Re-Imagined
- Why More Connections Aren't Necessarily Better
- How Low Pay is a Springboard
- How Low Pay Can Keep Syphoning Wealth up to You
- How to Play the Long Game

How to shake off the 99% mindset and acquire better habits
How to make the best from a low paid job or unpaid internship
How to use a pay cut and an increase in responsibilities to improve your personal standing
What the global immigration crisis means for your sense of motivation
