Useful ideas but lots of fluff

Revisado: 10-17-24

For being a book about less being more, it was disappointing how much space was taken up by stories, anecdotes and inspirational quotes. The actionable examples and idea could fit in one chapter.

Fully meets expectations

Revisado: 10-04-24

Excellent chapter topics. Well laid out. Compelling points made throughout. Excellent narration. Good summary and conclusion as well. I liked that he went out of his way to say that he wasn’t trying to make anyone lose their faith. Strictly wants to educate and open eyes.

Insightful and clearly experienced

Wish there had been more specific executable examples to try at work. The narration was a bit stiff/blocky at times.

Relatable and Immediately Applicable

Revisado: 01-09-24

I started a new job a couple years ago and quickly felt my leadership skills weren’t good enough. Since then I’ve been listening to countless coaching and leadership audiobooks during my one hour commute each day. I’ve developed the habit of pausing books when I hear something awesome to bark notes into my phone for things to apply and try out at work. All I can say is I did that far more times with this book than any other thus far. And so far each of the things I’ve tried has worked in one way or another, or opened up new doors.

Everyone should read this!

While practice makes better, the advice in this book is an instant game changer! It’s worked every time and is even fun to implement.

Learned A Lot

Revisado: 10-04-23

The author takes you through all the key points and perspectives in history in chronological order, from more or less Homer’s Odyssey to the invention of Purgatory (1300’s/1400’s). The first half, say, through Jesus, was great. Really enjoyed it. But the second half was really hard to not get bored by it because it starts feeling extremely repetitive. While it doesn’t actually repeat itself, there are just sooooo many ever-so-slight changes of philosophy that it’s hard to not glaze over/become numb to it. It’s not the author’s fault that more people wrote about this as time goes or and that their records survive better, but I just wish he had boiled them down to a bit more Cliffs Notes.

Hits the nail on the head!

This book put into words all the problems that I’ve experienced in my marriage and gives great constructive advice. I intend to share it with my brothers.

Worth the listen regardless of your leaning

Revisado: 09-08-23

I learned a lot about this world that I knew little about. It all made perfect sense to me and seems obvious when hearing it. I do wish the author had included the typical verbiage to know when someone is being quoted, like “…she said,…”. It was hard to tell sometimes with the audio book whether the narrator was reading the author’s words or someone’s quote. The author did a great job of showing that she was trying to not be bashing the trans community, but instead expressing concern for those that have mistakenly jumped into this community when they really don’t belong. However, some of this didn’t shine through until her words at the very end. I wish it had been emphasized more and better up front.

Extremely informative.

Revisado: 08-02-23

Somewhat concerning that a quick internet search seems to agree with the author’s statements that his methods are not widely accepted in the medical world, but this was nonetheless a very informative and practical self-help book. Covers some serious in depth stuff about the brain and how it’s health relates to who we are.

Excellent, Relatable, Honest

Revisado: 06-28-23

This was a very well done and relatable study. It was so refreshing to hear a real life story of all these issues played out for an organization and inspirational to tackle your own issues. This isn’t just applicable to business leaders. It serves as a great guide for helping us navigate all sorts of social/interpersonal issues in life.
