I must listen

these were things that I used to know. But you go through life you raise kids you get divorced you figure out who you are you go through all the things in life and you find yourself going through menopause and forgetting things. It was really good for me to listen to this book again and remember that I'm much more strong and resilient than I thought I was and the places that I have become week in a canal strengthen again.

Good read!

This book takes a look into the reasons why we have impulses and talks about how to control them. It also gives ideas on how to handle yourself under pressure. I found this to be very helpful.

Exceptional work

I loved listening as I slept. Gave rise to many epiphanies and great ideas in my dreams. I highly recommend this.

common sense

Well packaged and concisely narrated. So it's not too long and wordy. A good primer on starting your path to mental toughness. Dan Crenshaw's Fortitude would be a good follow up.

Great book

Loved it, easy to follow, good exercises.. very enjoyable. would definitely recommend & even listen to again

Good beginner book

This book has good prompts to get people thinking about mental toughness. All very surface layer info and maybe a good starter book to get into the topic more deeply with other books. The last 45 min of audio is a recap of the book which is why I’m returning it.

Resourceful !

I believe every human needs to improve the mind and soul.. positive thinking, emotional control it’s something we deal on daily basis..!

It’s okay but personally not what I was looking for.

I get how it could work for people but for me I need someone to literally feel like their kicking my ass. I’m sure this book will work and if you do the exercises it’ll work well but the person who is narrating could put me to sleep rather than light a fire up under my ass to be more mentally tough. Maybe that’s the style the author wanted. Calm and focused. Personally for me I found the book “unf*ck yourself” a lot better than this. Again, this might just be how I work. Not to say it didn’t have some good pointers. No harm in trying to see if it suits you and how you are 😊

Not suitable for audio.

Not really suitable for audio, it's filled with exercises but no PDF to view them.

Good book - as long as you do the exercises

Does what it says. A handbook with useful techniques for developing mental toughness. I suspect the benefit of the book will not be acheived by speed reading, but rather by reading a chapter at a time and spending 30 mins to do the exercises. This may mean that it takes 2 weeks to read, but via this approach you will build a positive daily habit and improve your mental toughness. Job done :)

Disappointing!

Great to begin with but then seemed to waffle on. I expected to come away "Mentally Tough"!!!

Worth listening to!

There is probably nothing in this book that you don’t intuitively know however its strength lies in how the author explains it.
Definitely worth the time, twice in my case, I’d be very surprised if a reader didn’t get at least a couple of valuable points out of it.

inspired

we can all benefit from this book very good, thank 3n g h g g
