Thought provoking book for all men

This book provides valuable knowledge to the individual that seeking to understand more about self and desiring to build closer relationship to God and man. I would recommend taking notes and/or replaying chapters to absorb most of the content. This book spoke to my Soul and challenged me to be better and made me aware of my weaknesses as well as strengths. It helped me to begin creating an action plan for becoming a better person for God, Family, and Friends.

Wish He Had Gone Deeper, but Really Good

If you could sum up He-Motions in three words, what would they be?

I felt like he touched on a lot of stuff but didn't explore it and go deep enough like I would have liked. I really was hoping after it was over, that there was more. It felt like the entire book nearly was an introduction and we were going to get to the answers, reveal some stuff that I'm searching for answers to, but it just ended. I do recommend, with that said, that men read it. You will gain and benefit a lot from it!

What other book might you compare He-Motions to and why?
