After listening to this title, I cleaned all the clutter in my office, I journaled, I thought purposefully about the gratitude I have for the friends in my life, and I spent time being present with my family. Oh! And I am VERY motivated to deepen the value of the time I spend, and live more fully!

The narrator is pleasant to listen to, and there is a lot of content that can help make your life better.

Now, I will say, on a personal note, I initially wasn't on board with the leaning toward New Age spirituality that the later chapters in this book seemed to take. It's just not my path / cup of tea. However, one thing I did appreciate is the author offers a variety of tools and ways to engage (or not engage) with each tool.

For instance, a tool may be more rooted in religion or spiritual practice for some people, while for others, it doesn't hold that connotation. Rather, for others, it may be more of a non-religious, physical exercise. The book seems to say, "If this doesn't resonate with you spiritually, there are also mathematic/research-based approaches to this." I did appreciate that.

Overall, I think whether you pick 1 or 2 practices out of this book (or more), there's something in it that can help you live better.

I have learned and grown so much from this work. There are game-changing principles and even techniques that I still use today, to take my life back and put it in the hands of the One who knows best. Thank you, God, for Levi Lusko :)

I really did like a lot of the encouragement in this book. Some gems stood out that I can tell will mean a lot to me as a new dad. I don't like giving critical reviews, but this issue just kept happening.

I can’t understand what happened in some of the narrating. Or at least why someone didn’t catch it before releasing this audiobook. Either the script being read was bad, or the narrator would misread something. I’m sure I would stumble every now and then if it were me narrating, but the point would be to do another take on that section before releasing the audio.

Some of the phrasing is strange so you can’t understand what he’s saying. Also, some of the words are just wrong. For instance, in the section on the importance of delegation, he states, “you can’t do anything.” I am sure that the correct phrase here would be, “you can’t do everything.”

Another example. One section header advised dads to “love conditionally” ... after replaying a couple times I realized, no, they meant “love unconditionally.” Another spot mis-quoted the phrase as, “do I state, not as I do” (leaving out the word AS, “do AS I state, not as I do”).

Overall it was a decent listen, I just found myself confused in more than a few moments due to this issue, having to rewind and de-code. I eventually just had to put the book down.
