Bill Gates Gifts Graduates His Favorite Book On Positivity

Graduates of 2018, Bill Gates has a special gift for you.

Although Gates recommends the book for anyone, he chose to gift free copies to graduating students because the message of putting world events into perspective is an especially important habit that helps foster and maintain a sense of hope.

“Although I think everyone should read it, it has especially useful insights for anyone who’s making the leap out of college and into the next phase of life,” he said.

“Factfulness” helps readers overcome biases about the world and identify ten instincts that prevent us from examining the world factfully.”

Gates isn’t the only one giving this book a great review. After Rosling passed away last year before completing his book, his son Ola and daughter-in-law Anna helped him finish it and it landed the #5 spot on the New York Times Bestseller List for hardcover nonfiction.

Gates hopes that by seeing the world through a fact-lens, graduates can focus the beauty in the world, and how to make our planet a better place for everyone.

Progress comes bit by bit,” summing up one of the main points Rosling wrote about in his book that inspired even one of the most philanthropic humans the world has ever seen.

By giving grads the opportunity to download one of his favorite books for free, Gates’ is looking to help students begin their path with a fresh perspective — one that requires optimism, ‘factfullness,’ and less fear.
