A must read for writers and communicators

Revisado: 12-16-21

Possibly one of the best books out there for offering the broad perspective of what story was and is though the ages and how we hunger for its arcs, movements and resolutions. Lots of good tips, sources for further reading. Deeply researched, well sited with narration that goes down smooth like a just in time glass of aged bourbon.

Sad and all about mememe

Revisado: 09-19-21

Clearly, story or no, authors could only see as far as their own toes. Few people with or without the many boasted about academic degrees are that interesting and fewer more would dare to care.

Strong Execution of Complex Concepts

Revisado: 08-19-20

Well done -- while many of the examples offered have been recounted in many other tomes, The Art of Thinking Clearly brings fresh spins without all the unnecessary verbosity. A helpful book when the world is suddenly so confounding and the narration performance provided brings even greater clarity.

Once again, all about Elizabeth

Revisado: 08-07-20

Had hoped for a greater view into philosophy and spirituality from a creative who has a well considered position on these topics and whose prose is outstanding. However, all we get is all about Elizabeth Gilbert, the names she can drop, the attention she can draw to herself at every turn of the page. In a world already brimming with me me me conversations (monologues) and videos, this work was just too hard to engage, especially when there is such a big magical world out there to observe and interpret. You're not that important, Elizabeth. Returned it.

If you only buy one book on SEO ever, this is it

Revisado: 05-18-17

What made the experience of listening to SEO Fitness Workbook, 2017 Edition the most enjoyable?

Jason McDonald boils the hard scrabble thinking and strategic maneuvering required to succeed at online visibility and gives it to you in one comprehensive, easy to digest egg. SEO is hard by anyone's standards and getting more difficult by the day as what worked yesterday can kill you off today. But there are basics and rules of law, even at Google, and this book cuts through them like butter with logical builds, clear explanations and even organized written tools that you can follow as you go and have a strong idea of what to do next when you are done with the audio portion. Have been studying SEO and practicing various techniques for nearly a decade and have never found the bible I needed until now.

What did you like best about this story?

Conversational, clear and the guy knows his stuff. I can spot the frauds who gloss over the tough parts and try to make it all sound easy. It's not. Jason digs in and does not leave you stranded.

Have you listened to any of Daniel Matte’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Was a clear reading performance but not familiar with the reader.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Feed Me! Escape from the Little House of SEO Horrors

All Self Promo, No Meat

Revisado: 09-26-12

What would have made Subattraction Attract Wealth better?

To deliver what was promised. After a long and rambling lecture that could have been taken from an AA pamphlet then a silly hypno session about regret and gratitude, the listener is left hanging and regretting the purchase. The "meat" would have been the subsequent session on attracting wealth, but he seems to leave that to trying to extract more money from you off his shameless self-focused site. A poor purchase even at $5.

Would you be willing to try another one of Craig Beck’s performances?

Nope

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anger

Any additional comments?

Will remember there are consequences to even what seem to be inconsequential purchases: time spent listening to drivel and money better spent on a latte and book written by a legitimate author.

Business tips for five-year-olds

Revisado: 02-27-12

What disappointed you about Online Business Promotion?

Delivered for children as a school teacher might teach reading. Annoying in tone, void of useful or depth content, continually self-promoting. Shame on you, Liv. A rip-off of time and focus for anyone over the age of 6.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Jut that it was not more hours of emptiness than it was.

Any additional comments?

Do you really think your audiences are this stupid, Liv?
