Historia
In 2006, John Doerr was moved by Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth and a challenge from his teenage daughter: “Dad, your generation created this problem. You better fix it.” Since then, Doerr has searched for solutions to this existential problem - as an investor, an advocate, and a philanthropist. Fifteen years later, despite breakthroughs in batteries, electric vehicles, plant-based proteins, and solar and wind power, global warming continues to get worse. Its impact is all around us: droughts, floods, wildfires, the melting of the polar ice caps.

Highlights every important aspect for solving our climate challenges and provides great insights for great actions. It seems like the book took a lot to be put together and I value that a lot. Thank you

Not a book!
Revisado: 05-27-20
This is more of a blog, not a book. The title was catchy but the content is just too much talk. You can enjoy the first 10 minutes of the book and the rest is just boring. Sorry, but if you are good in making a website that generates few millions, it doesn’t make you an author or experienced.

Historia
In 1912, scientist Marie Curie spent two months on the British seaside at the home of Hertha Ayrton, an accomplished mathematician, inventor, and suffragette. At the time, Curie was in the throes of a scandal in France over her affair with Paul Langevin, which threatened to overshadow the accomplishment of her second Nobel Prize. Performed by Kate Mulgrew and Francesca Faridany at the Minetta Lane Theatre, this play by Lauren Gunderson is an ode to two remarkable women.

Historia
Without John C. Houbolt, a mid-level engineer at NASA, Apollo 11 would never have made it to the moon. Top NASA engineers on the project, including Werner Von Braun, strongly advocated for a single, huge spacecraft to travel to the moon, land, and return to Earth. It's the scenario used in 1950s cartoons and horror movies about traveling to outer space. Houbolt had another idea: Lunar Orbit Rendezvous. LOR would link two spacecraft in orbit while the crafts were travelling at 3,600 miles an hour around the moon. His plan was ridiculed and considered unthinkable.

This story is great for everyone
Revisado: 07-25-19
I truly enjoyed the “between the line” lessons I learned in this audible. I think it is a story for everyone because you can always relate to it. It will also open people’s horizons for many more ideas and - perhaps - innovation.

Maybe the Print but not this Audio
Revisado: 06-29-19
The book is more of a Class Homework or a Course Note. You can’t just listen to the book and finish it. It requires so much studying afterwards which was truly disappointing for me. I suffered from the narrator too especially that his tone makes you sleepy and sometimes just BORED!
A short book but took me so long to finish listening to it. Get the print, it will have a greater effect on your understanding.

Great lesson but too long stories
Revisado: 06-22-19
Although the lessons from the book are very inspiring but the story is way to long to keep up with. It is entertaining sometimes but with so many names that are not relevant to a new reader or someone who doesn’t have a historical background; it will be hard to keep up with everything. I think it is also more challenging because this is an audio version and you can’t easily go back to the previous page to see who said what or to who at anytime. More of a great biography than an innovative book.

Historia
It is the tenth anniversary since the first publication of Daniel Goleman's groundbreaking bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, which maps the territory where IQ meets EQ, where we apply what we know to how we live. Spending over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence for what many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just a matter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your own emotions and understanding the emotions of the people around you.

A book to fill your self personal gaps!
Revisado: 05-24-19
You won’t go through anything that would assess you or tell you what you should be doing to overcome a problem or a gap you discovered, but it will definitely make you come into yourself awareness and help you understand the basic reasons to the realization of who you are or how you act and react.
I enjoyed reading the book although I found its vocabulary to be difficult sometimes. For readers, this is a good one to take on.

Use the Workbook!
Revisado: 05-13-19
Without the workbook, it is 50% less efforts to understand the full meaning of this book. I read many books and to my understanding now: most of them were inspired by this book “Think and Grow Rich”.
Yet, I suggest you read/ listen the/to book once every 3 months. And if you really want to understand it well, listen to the audio book while following on the print book too. It will concrete your understanding.
Some of the terms on the book might not adapt to today’s reality, but they will definitely act as a guideline for any given time.

Historia
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Good motivator but not a one to follow
Revisado: 03-12-19
Goggins is a tough one but we don’t have to live like he did. He doesn’t even live now the life he had before. We can consider the motivation and message he wants to deliver and that’s very true of him, but Goggins is not a role model when it comes to his personality, marriages, behavior and kindness. Also, the last 30 minutes is the book itself and everything before is not a good guidance or a good story. Yet, well done Goggins. Now go back and apologies to your wives for all the selfish decisions you made to achieve your inspiring goals.
