Concise, easy to follow

I really like how this is done. Unlike other audio downloads, a separate voice announces each new section. Carlson is a very good speaker and his diction is very clear. The concept behind the book is to learn how to not sweat the small stuff in numerous different settings, and it is well done. By the time I finished the book, I had calmed immensely. Well worth the money and time.

Mental coaching

One of the best mental coaching books in the history of man-kind. Some of Wayne Dyer's wisest wisdom. Richard is a brilliant storyteller, great mental coach and an authentic teacher.

Great book. Very good message.

A bit repetitive. Otherwise awesome. Will probably relisten every few months to remind myself. This is like a throwback “subtle art of not giving a f*ck”

All makes sense

This audio book was clear, to. the point & well read. Thank you to Richard for condensing what we are all aware of, at some level. Life moves so fast, we forget to stop to take note of the gifts we have & to recall & stand up for our values.
