    There are a lot of great insights in this book. However, most of his points could have been written within 20-30 pages. Worth a quick read in half-day.

  • Inaccurate and harmful

    To claim ADD, Seasonal Affect Disorder, and Social Anxiety are not real is harmful and flat out wrong. The author is not a doctor and should not be stating what are or aren’t actual medically diagnosable things. 0 stars.

    I wanted to feel inspired or motivated but walking away at the end this book changed nothing. Instead I found myself questioning the terrible anecdotes and quotable excerpts. The writing distracted from the message and the constant reference to God and Angels really took away from the point of each story. There were some good takes on time and space but overall I did not enjoy this book.
