Good ideas, horrendous AI narration

Revisado: 10-29-24

Lots of good, even life-altering ideas here.

But get this book in a different format - the narration at times sounds like a real person, but over and over it just tells you that “We want you to think that this is actually Roland Frasier reading the whole thing.”

It’s not. The book is nine hours of Chinese water torture, reminding you that there is no sane person - never mind a hugely accomplished businessman who knows this information like the back of his hand - who would use such weird inflections, timing, pronounce symbols as if they were actual words, and pronounce EBITDA no fewer than 5 different ways.

Never mind hire even a moderately articulate high schooler to use the AI software to fix glaringly obvious mistakes.

The authors’ reputations and experience are legendary, and they say that they want to spread positive messaging to help people achieve their goals. But the presentation is fundamentally, repetitively lying to the listener in the process. If you can stomach that to get to some good high-level concepts, go for it.

If you say you’re human, be fully human. Please don’t lie to us.

Stop leaving value on the table!

Revisado: 10-14-24

It’s easy to roll our eyes at people who think “too much” of themselves, talk a big game, and can’t back it up.  It’s a lot harder to admit that we’re not actually giving ourselves enough credit, then get it. This book is jampacked with ideas to help you do exactly that. All the stars, especially for Dia’s energetic and empathetic delivery.

Deeply insightful

Revisado: 08-16-24

People are complex, and genuinely connecting with them can be even more complex. But Joe’s hard-won wisdom provides a hugely generous roadmap to make those connections possible. Read this book over and over!!

Hugely important and valuable

Revisado: 08-07-24

These ideas are so important for advisers and clients alike. As a heads up, this audiobook is not the book itself – it’s a conversation about the book. It’s still highly valuable though, and you can hear how much Tyson genuinely cares about these ideas.

Finally, the unabridged version!

Timeless, counter-cultural advice and systems of thinking for building your financial future - so glad to revisit the unabridged version. All those extra details and stories matter.

Deeply insightful and important

Revisado: 03-21-24

So often, human connection seems to be a talent that “you either got it or you don’t.” This book offers incredibly insightful thinking and tools that make human connection achievable for anyone who wants to learn.

Absolute gold

Revisado: 02-13-22

Put these ideas into play, and see your world change. I just finished listening to the book after having read it last year, and I will absolutely be listening again multiple times.
