"Great Scot! ..and what a patriot"
Also being American by choice this book spoke to me in several ways.
Craig takes the listener on an entertaining journey from being a wee Scottish lad, insecure and unsure about himself, through his range of achievements and life experiences.
Understandably he keeps you laughing through the highs of his life but his story telling abilities shine through as he drops you down again and again into his struggle with addictions, yet he still keeps you laughing.
A great listen, and a highly recommended read for the entertainment and motivational value.
"Not a panacea, but definitely a sound method"
I'm not a GTD evangelist, but I do like to review my organizational situation from time to time.
If you are looking for a step by step solution to organizing your life get the printed book, but to be reminded of the basics and to help you adjust your actions, this is a great listen.
"The key message is in the sub-title"
Agreed, some of this content and the examples used are somewhat dated but it still makes very interesting and thought provoking reading.
Mass Collaboration IS changing everything, and understanding this fact has influenced me and my work. If you listen to this, don't dwell on the specific examples but take in the underlying message.
"Good thinking material"
Fareed Zakaria is an excellent story teller and this is no exception. This book gives a great overview of the multitude of issues facing the USA and the rest of the western world. It's an easy listen and great to stimulate thought.
