There is no shortage of well-known people around the globe, but there are only a few who have created an impact as profound as Arnold Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger not only made a name for himself in the industry but also inspired millions every day with his persistent supply of motivation. However, to achieve such success and wisdom, he had to stick to his guns and follow some strict rules in life. Recently, he shared his seven rules to live a meaningful life in his new book, Be Useful: Seven Tools For Life.

The book hit the shelves on the 10th of October and has been receiving highly favorable reviews from critics. Days after its release, Schwarzenegger cleared a misconception attached to his book by replying to a social media post. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed why his book is useful 

Amazon Audible recently shared the link to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s audiobook with a caption saying, “What is Arnold @Schwarzenegger’s secret to success? Listen now and find out”. This caption caught the attention of the former Californian governor, who re-shared the post with another caption confirming that there are no hacks or shortcuts in his book. The 76-year-old further added, “That’s why it will help you!”

For quite some time, Schwarzenegger has been busy promoting his book, Be Useful, on various platforms. He appeared on many podcasts to talk about his life lessons and struggles. During these interviews, fans got to learn about the impact his father, the late Gustav Schwarzenegger, had on him. 

Notably, days before re-sharing Audible’s tweet, the former bodybuilder re-shared one of his fans’ tweets, which talked about one of his core memories as a child. This tweet had a connection to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s father and the methods Austrians used to employ to discipline the children.

Gustav Schwarzenegger was a strict Nazi soldier who lived by uncompromising principles. Despite having difficulties getting along, the FUBAR star learned some of the most valuable life lessons from his father. A few days back, a user shared a screenshot of a page from Be Useful on X, formerly known as Twitter. This page talked about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s childhood events and the demon-like figure Krampus, who punished the bad village kids on Christmas. 

Schwarzenegger in his book revealed how his father became that monster several times for other village kids to teach them discipline. The user shared the post with a caption saying, “The Austrians sure have a way with child-rearing”. To which The Terminator actor replied, saying, “If my book teaches Americans about Krampus, it’s a success”. Considering the fact that Schwarzenegger drew inspiration for the name of his book from his late father’s lessons, it is safe to say that Be Useful will unfold a lot about the late police chief’s values and principles in life.
