Publisher's summary

Isn't it about time you stopped being lazy and took back control over your life?

I used to be lazy. Extremely lazy. But just this last week, I ran 50 miles, did three weight-training workouts, attended kickboxing classes, and got a ton of work done, making a nice, big, fat paycheck.

You see, I learned how to overcome laziness - and you can, too.

This audiobook is a nice short listen designed for you to learn the secrets of going from lazy to self-disciplined and productive. It's the audiobook I wish I had when I was younger. The one that could have saved me so many hours of frustration and helped me retire and become financially free much earlier. Oh, and also to get those six-pack abs I finally have. (I was fat once, too.)

Deep down, you know you are meant to live a life better than the one you’re living right now. You know you are capable of doing, having, and being so much more - but you’re too damn lazy to experience who you truly are at your core and having what you’re really worth.

I know how you feel because eight years ago, I was in your shoes. I was lazy, overweight, filled with fear, and living way below my potential.

This audiobook takes you into my personal journey out of laziness and into a life of empowerment and self-discipline. In this audiobook, I will share with you:

• The mind-set that had me trapped in laziness, fear, and procrastination and how I broke free
• How I created a new mind-set of a tenacious, unstoppable bulldog
• What the bulldog mind-set is all about and why you must have it
• Why I do hard shit
• Why I became a finisher
• And more

If you’re really ready to give up laziness, I’ll show you how I did it and how you can, too.

Another Great Book by John!

John's straight forward approach to his content has always resonated with me. I have all three of his audiobooks, and I have listened to Soft Skills and The Complete Software Developer's Career Guide twice already. I can tell that I will listen to Stop Being Lazy at least 15 times this month since it so short an straight to the point. Just like programming, concepts always seems to take me a while to grasp, so it comforting knowing I can go back to any of his books to and get my mindset back on track. I really wish John would get back into the Tutorial Game and give us some tutorials on all the many hot languages of 2019, like Python, React, Javascript or even an updated version of C.

Great quick read with valuable life advice.

What to say... there is a lot of truth and tough love spoken in this book. Which is how it should be told. The author also provides great advice to overcome laziness.

awesome book

Very good book. You can tell he really cares about his audience. Very smart and accomplished guy.

Bad Ass

I struggle with depression and anxiety and this has really helped me. I highly recommend

Great inspiration! Definitely recommend

I loved listening to this and will listen to it over and over again! Great!

Concise and Inspiring

I love that the author narrated the book himself. He speaks my language, for sure. Motivating and a great compliment to a lot of his other material. Short and fucking great.

Best Motivation When I Feel Lazy

JUST GO AHEAD A READ IT! IT WILL MAKE YOU WANT TO KICK YOUR OWN A$$. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? WELL READ THE BOOK (OR LISTEN TO THE EBOOK) AND FIGURE IT OUT!

Short with a huge Impact! You never let me down!

The book is a little over an hour long and straight to the point. The examples John uses are based on his own experiences and always tie back into the topic. I've read it twice in one weekend pretty much. He makes a lot of good points that we as individuals have probably heard before but need to hear again to be reminded of why we're doing what we do. Thanks for this! I am already tackling my days with more drive, getting more shit done and throwing the excuses out. I will likely be reading it a few more times to come.

I loved it!!!

Im just starting my journey to becoming a better person and this book has helped a lot.

F*****g great

Content-wise pretty basic, but told in the right way to wake up my inner bulldog.
