We're in the middle of an epidemic of average. So-called "normal" people get up every day, go to work, do what's asked of them, leave promptly at five, and return home to sit on the couch and watch TV. Society tells us that this is what it means to lead a balanced life. Don't stress too much or work too hard. Your career isn't everything. But Grant Cardone thinks this preoccupation with balance has really just given an excuse to be mediocre.

The content is neither awful, nor original. However, the narrator sounds exactly like Gary Busse. So if you can handle listening to him give advice them you might like this book.

Direct, blunt, and brutally honest, Tim Grover breaks down what it takes to be unstoppable: You keep going when everyone else is giving up, you thrive under pressure, you never let your emotions make you weak. In "The Relentless 13", he details the essential traits shared by the most intense competitors and achievers in sports, business, and all walks of life.

rubbish, preaching locker room blips nothing more

I have no doubt that the author has been very successful as a personal trainer. His history proves it with the clients he's worked with. However this book is unless you're simply interested in the man himself not worth the time.

Six days after an InStyle-worthy wedding in Los Angeles, Lisa Fineberg Cook left behind her little red Jetta, her manicurist of 10 years, and her very best friend for the land of the rising sun. When her husband accepted a job teaching English in Nagoya, Japan, she imagined exotic weekend getaways, fine sushi dinners, and sake sojourns with glamorous expatriate friends. Instead, she's the only Jewish girl on public transportation, and everyone is staring.

Entitled Valley Girl whining
Revisado: 10-13-15
The story of the quintessential narrow-minded, sheltered, snarky ,entitled twenty-something so prevalent in modern America.
I kept hoping something horrible would happen to the "heroine", in the process teaching her how shallow she is. Alas, I couldn't stomach the pity party long enough to find out of it did.
The narration is the only redeeming quality of this turkey and the only reason I didn't give it a straight one.

Surviving the Dragon is the remarkable life story of Arjia Rinpoche, who was ordained as a reincarnate lama at the age of two and fled Tibet 46 years later. In his gripping memoir, Rinpoche relates the story of having been abandoned in his monastery as a young boy after witnessing the torture and arrest of his monastery family. In the years to come, Rinpoche survived under harsh Chinese rule, as he was forced into hard labor and endured continual public humiliation as part of Mao’s Communist "reeducation".

Interesting story, distracting narration
Revisado: 01-29-15
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Only to someone with an existing interest in Tibetan Buddhism or Chinese communism. The book itself is filled with meaningless asides and dead end stories, interesting because of the context, but individually, boring and lend nothing to the story.
What did you like best about this story?
The inside glimpse into the history of the Chinese occupation of Tibet.
Would you be willing to try another one of Mark Ashby’s performances?
I would avoid books with this narrator. He annoyingly tries to pronounce names with and absurd accent and when he isn't butchering Tibetan he sounds like a newscaster from the 1950's.
Do you think Surviving the Dragon needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No.
