Critic reviews

Great classic! Highly recommend it!

I really loved every bit. I could do without the cheesy old school sounds throughout but other than that there was tremendous insight and valuable knowledge shared!

Motivating

I loved it! "if you think you are strong, you are. If you think you are weak, you are." This book not only changed the way I think but also the way I act. I have a purpose when I got to my job everyday because I know my outcome and where I will be years from now. My parents always told me had they made a goal to be millionaires and not just a goal to make half a million they would have surpassed that goal. Recommending this book to everyone I know.

Great summary of the principles of success

The audio book was engaging and I especially enjoyed the dramatization as it helps one connect with the message in a much more simpler and human way. I found the book to cover most of the success princples I've read if in other self development types of books. I highly recommend it!

very good book

loved it! it was very inspiring, very easy to listen to. I couldn't stop listening.

Valid, useful advice

Loved this book. It has greay advice with examples that make sense. I don't think I disagreed at any point. 5 stars.

Perfect

Loved it! Great success principles that can be applied right away in any life situation.

Despite buying the book, I judged it by its cover and put off listening for some time...

It is among the best brain food I’ve ever come across. It pairs beautifully with coffee, a morning stroll, cleaning the home, or as a monthly check on.

An absolute must listen (a must implement!).

The extra push I needed to hear

Being an overwhelmed entrepreneur running a business and sustaining my family, I've already listened to this audiobook 3 times in 7 days. It's like fuel for the brain. Such simple, practical concepts yet they make so much sense in the way he describes them. This audio book differs from others in the sense that it provides specific action items along the way. He literally says "here's what to do about it" and lists steps. Awesome.

I will listen to this weekly for months to come. Already have seen an increase in productivity and motivation. And best of all, an increase in income.

For the record, I've also listened to: Think and Grow Rich, The Law of Success, The Science of Getting Rich, the 4 hour work week and the E-Myth revisited. This adds to the collection perfectly. If you're a business owner or someone who simply wants to "level up" in life, definitely get this book.

The best book I have listened too.

This book can change your life! I plan to listen to it again. It is a great motivator to put in the work and get what you deserve out of life!
