It's great to hear this from Sean himself

I had heard Sean interviewed on a Radio show about the release of his book. I knew that I was going to read this book at some time in the future and the ideas he shares can make a difference for the better in anyones life. It's a ton of good common sense stuff that when used everyday will make a huge difference. What really moved me in both the interview and in the audiobook was the emotion that Sean brings to the stories that he tells, which he himself has experienced, added enormously to the power of the book I don't think it would have had the same impact read by anyone else. I recommend it for everyone!

Read the authors story before you listen

If you read about the author and his life the book will have a larger impact on everything you do

Great advice

Very thought provoking! This book really helped me to think differently about friends and relationships.

Good only if you have no exposure to Tony Robbins

This is a great book if you have no exposure to Tony Robbins material. But if you have been expose you realize that Sean is pretty much is using all the teachings of his with a twist.
In general personal development material are great if you can have a relatable story attach to it. Sean's story is very touching and inspirational.

Great book to help get moving forward in life

The narrator was great. The book helped tremendously in helping to get over my insecurities. Recommended this for anyone looking forward to moving forward in life.

Best self help book I've read.

I don't usually like to listen to self help books I would rather read them so I can make notes in the book as I read along but I couldn't stop listening to this one even though the author suggests reading it slowly as you do certain assignments. The book was very engaging,Inspiring, and practical and I wanted to absorb all of it in one sitting. Now I'm going to start over again and listen to it the way that the author suggests. Thank you thank you thank you. I'm going to suggest this book to my Family and friends.

Highly recommended

Sean has done an amazing number of things with his life given his disability. He outlines what has helped him and gives detailed instructions of how to overcome issues. He also gives powerful examples of others in his life adhering to his principles. Highly recommended for self-helpers!

Thank you for this incredible piece of information

This is a great piece of information, knowing Sean…. I couldn’t wait to read it!!

I am glad I quenched my thirst and yess it is worth every second, will definitely pick lessons from it and apply to my life.

Good overall motivational book

I love the motivational book genre, and was intrigued by the title. I was looking for a book that specifically addressed self-sabotage. This book is a great overall motivational book which walks through Sean's incredible story. But it was not prescriptive enough for me in addressing self-sabotage.

If you are looking for a good overall motivational book, this is good. If you are looking for more specific, I recommend looking elsewhere.

Common sense isn’t common sense until

It is common practice.

This book is wonderful, I did all of the activities. It was awesome and I can definitely see how it can change my life when out to use. I recommend this book to everyone :-)
