One of my favorite books for Creatives
Revisado: 02-08-23
I love Elizabeth’s tone throughout this whole book. You can tell she deeply cares about this topic and wants to share what she has learned. Fantastic read/listen. Another one in this realm is Steven Pressfield’s “The War of Art”; another one of my favorites.

Loved The Alchemist, Not This
Revisado: 01-19-23
I’m a fan of Paulo Coelho and love The Alchemist.
This book is strange, even ridiculous at times. Very much revolves around the occult and unusual “traditions” and exercises. I do wonder how Paulo was able to write a book and account for his entire journey, especially conversations word for word unless he recorded them in some way.
I’ll take it for what it’s worth and consider it “A Hero’s Journey” in a sense, and it sounds like Paulo found himself in some way.

I love the podcast but this was extra special. The personal stories in between TWIHI stories were such a pleasure to listen to. Entertaining, funny, sad, heart warming, it’s all here. I’ve recommended this book and the podcast to so many people, I can’t even remember. I seem to always be thanked for the recommend later down the line.

Historia
You cannot bounce back from hardship. You can only move through it. There is a path through pain to wisdom, through suffering to strength, and through fear to courage if we have the virtue of resilience. In 2012, Eric Greitens unexpectedly heard from a former SEAL comrade, a brother-in-arms he hadn’t seen in a decade. Zach Walker had been one of the toughest of the tough. But ever since he returned home from war to his young family in a small logging town, he’d been struggling. Without a sense of purpose, plagued by PTSD, and masking his pain with heavy drinking, he needed help. Zach and Eric started writing and talking nearly every day, as Eric set down his thoughts on what it takes to build resilience in our lives.

Historia
Some people believe that the easiest journey is the one with the fewest obstacles along the way. However, it’s the adversity that we experience throughout our lives that provides our greatest growth, development, and fulfillment. If we can muster the courage and persistence to “go thru” these obstacles while maintaining a positive mental attitude, we will find our unique expert power on the other side.

Wonderful Display of Expert Power
Revisado: 06-12-19
I Go Thru resonated with me on several levels, both professionally and personally. From how Chris dealt with his mother, sister, and bullies in his life to his perspective on the value of work and providing for his family. I have struggled with some of the same things and IGT helped shape a new mindset on how I can view these and give 100% to whatever I should be focusing on at that time,
Chris' happiness and contentment has clearly been a decision, and that’s encouraging. So often we become a victim to our circumstances and let life pummel us down. I can definitely attest to that. I’ll remember that I can choose my response as well as any other emotion, as opposed to reacting to what life has to throw at me.
I had many takeaways from this book and that is coming from someone who is an avid reader/audiobook devourer of books in this genre. I hope that I Go Thru helps you in a similar way as well.

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.

The most inspirational book I’ve ever read
Revisado: 02-01-19
Don’t waste anymore time; just get this book! Incredible story and well read by the narrator. I loved the podcast style commentary in between chapters as well as the challenges they set for the reader/listener.
My biggest take away is that we are meant for so much more in life. It’s time to quit our complacency and live up to our fullest potential in all areas of our lives. I’ve already started applying his mindset at home, in the gym, and at work and have seen an enormous difference.
David’s story is nothing short of amazing.

I was so excited about this book that I couldn’t wait to tell my wife when I got home everyday. I’ve already started implementing the “Cue, Routine, Reward” in some areas of my life and look forward to the outcome. Great book!!

Essentialism is more than a time-management strategy or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter.

“If it’s not an absolute yes, it’s a no!” This has been my main takeaway from the book and I’ve used that question all the time; at work, home, etc. I love the idea on focusing on things that truly matter.

I love Zig’s teachings and outlook on life. This Audiobook is very long and can be a bit repetitive but I didn’t mind that; I figured the repetitiveness could help instill the stories/principles in my mind. I like the input from his son, Tom Ziglar as well. I would recommend that any salesperson own this in their arsenal and in all reality, anyone could benefit from this book.
