10 principles to change your life and success

Wow this is gold!!

Re read the book multiple times for the info to stick and live it daily. Change your thoughts change your life

Author needs to correct grammar

This book is inspiring, however, the author is not the best reader. She makes mistakes like “scroliosis” for “scoliosis” and “ex-specially” for “especially” and “eruptly” for “abruptly”. Just wondering if someone could have edited the reading before it got published. Not the best audio. The music at the end of each section over-powers the voice. Could be better.

Good content, but read, don’t listen.

The content of this book was good, and I recommend it. However, the Audible version sounds like some digital application was used to clip pauses for punctuation, lists, section headings, etc., likening it to a computerized voice narration. Each chapter sounds like one long run-on sentence. If you tend to listen to books, I would suggest a different format to get the best benefit from the content.

Worth reading and re reading!

I'm not this book! The practice's make so much sense and seem so doable. I can't wait to apply them in my life!

A better you

The author presents a process for becoming, and staying, the best version of yourself. I know doing is hard, but now I have a plan to focus my efforts. I’m excited and motivated to start (a first since a traumatic brain injury 15 years ago)!
I prefer listening to books, but bought a print version to make doing the exercises easier.

Great mindset

Easy and simple strategies to follow every single day. I listened to this book on my way to work every morning and it really got me into the right mindset to hustle throughout the day!

Great Tools

This is a great book full of practical tools to help us perform at our best. The lessons learned can be applied to sports, career and family. I'm thankful to have the workbook in paper form as well.

Mindset and Attitude

It is so incredibly true that our mindset and attitude affects everything we do in life. When life gets complicated it is so easy to fall back and gets swallowed up by it all. I will step forward with the tools this book provides. Goals,focus,process,mindset,attitude.
Well written! Thank u!

Some great tips for high performance

Love the little snippets of advice in this book, some practical advice to help apply the ideas from Angela Duckworth's Grit. Only complaint is the music clips between chapters, just a random mix of genres and at one point the music completely drowns out the reader. But if you can ignore that it's worth a listen
