Publisher's summary

In the tradition of Stephen R. Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People and M. Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled, motivational speaker and author Steve Chandler's personal growth gem transcends all categories to impact psychology, business, self-help, and contemporary social commentary.

For the first time in history, listeners have a definitive audiobook on what keeps them from succeeding. Chandler breaks new ground with his startling revelations and fresh interpretations about people as diverse as Elvis Presley, Van Gogh, Governor Bill Richardson, actor Tyrese Gibson, Dr. Andrew Weil, Hugh Hefner, Mark Twain, and the biblical character Lazarus.

By exposing people's stories as the most false and limiting part of their lives, Chandler invites you into a new world of action and creative accomplishment.

Pleasant, well prepared material

I’d listen longer! I’ll listen again as I’m sure I’ll gain more helpful pointers. Steve really disliked Bill Richardson’s story, but still time we’ll spent.

Truly Helpful. Also Entertaining.

I heard about Steve Chandler through the book the ultimate coach about Steve Hardison. I thought I’ve got to listen to this guy who spent so many years working with Steve. What I’ve discovered is that Steve is a master coach in his own right and I’ll be devouring all his material. Thank you Steve for producing this!

Powerfully insightful and practical advice!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely! All of Steve Chandler's works that I have read or to which I've listened are down to earth advice from a man who once struggled with life's challenges, but who has become the answer man for over 30 Fortune 500 companies, as well as motivational speakers, success coaches, and the common man, like me.

Anyone who listens and experiments with what Steve brings them, are bound to find more satisfaction and productivity in their lives.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

If you want your life to become more awesome in every way, buy this book!

Many great ideas to break your story

Steve covers a broad spectrum of topics that help to see a new perspective. His speech is occasionally slow or slurred but it didn't affect the overall listen for me.
