Jake Ducey knocks it out of the park.

I loved hearing him tell his own story. It was very insightful and I did learn a lot of lessons.

Worthwhile Book

Enjoyed the book. Worthwhile with many unknown facts about some notable people. Jake is inspiring in his own unique way.

Awesome!!

First off I would like to say I love the way this book was wrote. Jake did an amazing job and the enthusiasm while reading was great as well. Very helpful information and knowledge in this book that can be applied everyday. Thank you Jake. Much respect and I hope to meet you one day!

A paradigm altering experience!

Jake's vision for this world is not only unique but exactly what this world needs. It is an absolute joy to know that there are like minded, young leaders that have the vision and drive to open the minds of others and empowering our youth by making them believe that they're capable of so much more... which they are, which we are! I listened to the whole audio book in ONE DAY!! It's the best book I've ever experienced.

really enjoyed it

great message with a heart felt push. I would recommend this to everyone I know.

Good Book

There is a lot of information and will need to listen to more than once and maybe even take some notes to implement the ideas into your daily life. Well written and organized!

Nothing ground breaking, but it's the Swiss Army knife of self hell

I really enjoyed the book. It's one of those things I need to listen to once a year.
+Easy listen, great content.
-I felt like he was borrowing too many ideas. Although I think that's a good thing because that means he has distilled all the books he has read into this.
-I found it hard to take him seriously for the first hour. But after finishing the book, I have deep respect for this man!

Great job!!

In due time?

Great book, Great author. Hopefully the lessons outlined benefit my Journey sooner rather than later. Great thanks.

Hope I will think about this when I was 23!
