Religious

Revisado: 08-05-23

This is a Christian book but that wasn't very clear from the product details. The tips are also not applicable to non Christians. Unfortunately I can't return it because I bought it on sale.

Good insights, but focuses on large companies

Revisado: 06-18-23

I liked it, and it opened my eyes to a few trends I was overlooking. But it is very short and doesn't really cover what it promises - how can small businesses compete against tech giants.

Really good

Revisado: 12-27-22

Listened in one day and took lots of notes. It's full of practical advice, which is not based on research but on years of practice from the author. This is for me much better than platitudes about listening. Also, the author has already a book on that topic for those who are interested.

It's about social studies around dopamine

Revisado: 10-01-22

The criticism of of other reviews, in particular the chapter on politics, don't do justice to the book. It's a very easy read and obviously social science has many caveats one should consider. Criticizing results of studies just because they don't match personal beliefs is a no for me.

Having said that, I hoped the book would dive deeper into the biology and behavior associated with dopamine and other neurotransmitters. That didn't happen, with all of it being about social studies and the duality of dopamine vs. other neurotransmitters.

Uninspired and uninsightful

Revisado: 05-13-22

Unlike other reviewers, I didn't feel like it's difficult to relate to her life. But unique stories and a level deeper of vulnerability and reflexion are indeed missing.

The book is just basic and bland. Not that entertaining and nothing that you haven't heard a hundred times before.

The exceptions are a couple of chapters where she tells stories on why being honest and open pays off for everyone.

Some good ideas

Revisado: 05-09-22

It's difficult to review, because it mixes science with pseudoscience with bullshit. I'd probably read it again, but be ready for fluff and the many horoscope-like questionnaires, arbitrary "types" and "recommendations" for you based on those.

Good listen, but superficial

Revisado: 03-12-22

Before starting this book, I knew a lot more than what was covered. It's very non-technical and covers a wide range of interesting topics. Even though it worked more as a consolidation/review for me, I still really enjoyed it. I just wish it would have been more comprehensive. For example, covering the use of password managers would have been critical.

My first 5 out 5 stars

Revisado: 05-31-21

Nothing brings me to tears. This book did, many times. Impeccable narration and great stories. It's also not just for educators, but honestly should be listened to by all adults.
