This is yet another book I’ve read about overcoming extreme limits, discipline, and planning. This work is also related to survival, but this time not due to an accident, but as the result of great, well-planned, and executed projects.
The story is told by the author himself, Amyr Klink, a Brazilian of great character and known as the greatest navigator of the South Atlantic. His work is titled: Não Há Tempo a Perder, which translates directly into English as: No Time to Lose.
This journey through the world of books has introduced me to people who achieved incredible feats, many of them from my own country. I am surprised by how I had never heard of such stories until now. Truly, the best knowledge is the one you seek out yourself.

Throughout the book, the author shares how the development of his personality, along with his involvement with the sea, brought him resilience and how he gradually discovered where his heart truly lay.
He also describes how he studied and acquired knowledge from people from various parts of the country about sailing, and, in great detail, he explains how he applied all of it to his boat projects, which allowed him to travel the South Atlantic numerous times and pass on this passion for the sea to the next generation.
As usual, I listened to this story while doing my daily exercise routine. The audiobook is narrated by Diego Muras.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find an English version of the book to share the link. However, I am happy to write here that yet another great name from my Brazil is renowned for his remarkable achievements, particularly for rowing more than 3,500 miles (around 6,500 kilometers) from the port of Lüderitz, in southern Africa, to Praia da Espera on the Bahia coast, aboard a tiny rowing boat.
This is my reading log for tracking progress in my personal development plan. Links may participate of referral program.
