No science, no discipline

I've read a lot of self help books. The advice varies in effectiveness, but this book has to be the worst. The author simply lists a bunch of empty platitudes, with no guidance on how to actually go about them. To make matters worse, the advice eventually turns from useless adages to pure bad advice.

Here's a sample of some of the sage wisdom you can expect from this book:

- stop being anxious
- if you are a smoker, stop smoking, and start thinking about why you are unhappy
- just work harder and stop enjoying life, and that will make you more productive

By the title, I was expecting to hear strategies on how to improve myself in an incremental fashion. This book has nothing of the sort.

If you're looking for a good listen on how to improve your life, may I recommend some of the following:

- 12 rules for life by Jordan Peterson
- the 7 habits of highly effective people by Stephen Covey

If you don't need an audiobook and wouldn't mind a physical book, I can also highly recommend The Resilience Factor by Karen Reivich and Andrew Shatte - fantastic and practical advice on how to build resilience
