Clear, concise and practical

A long time ago, I promised myself never to read the same book more than once because of the cost of opportunity of reading something new and potentially better. I broke my promise to read (or listen) this book for the second time just to confirm how clear, concise and practical it is. I enjoyed it (again) and recommend it without reservation.

Love it

I love the book. I finished it in 2 days. What's the one thing I can do to make everything else easier or unnecessary? I probably have to listen to the book on a regular basis when I get lost in the future.

Great change in life

I have been struggling to keep my mind on one thing, my mind has been going from business idea to business idea but never actually went through till the end with any of them. This book helped me focus on THE ONE THING that is important at the moment. Would recommend.
