A pretty good book.

There are a few takeaways from this book if this will be your first time reading about motivation and self-discipline. And if you have read about them before, the book is a great reminder of them. I did obtain some points I’ve never heard before. It is very easy to digest and content is helpful and actionable. The writer actually provides actionable items as well. I always believe that if you have even just one takeaway from any book, it’s very much worth it as you are leaving the book 1% better than you were before reading them. This book was one of those for me.

The reason why I didn’t give this a five star was I noted a few times where the writer mentions his other books through this book. It was alright but it was mildly distracting. Not a big issue if you care about the content, though. I understand as even the most popular writers do the same.

I received a free copy in exchange for my honest review.

Enlightening and motivating.

I needed to hear the words of an experienced Entrepreneur. It was advice about intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation that moved me. And I have already implemented a "One hour" work schedule. Damn that really works!

Any additional comments?

All in all this was a worthwhile listen, summing up a lot of good advice. If I had to choose between the audio & the kindle/paperback versions, I would probably choose the kindle/paperback, as I found myself highlighting several section for later reference. Fortunately Martin offers a discount on the audible version if you buy the kindle version first, so it's pretty inexpensive to get both.

The book lives up to it's title

The book is well organized, with useful action steps and chapter summaries. Meadows's books are always chock full of practical ideas, and this one is no exception.

The narrator has odd inflections at times, often giving emphasis to words of lesser importance. But his pronunciation was clear, and the author's intent was always evident, if not immediately obvious from the narrator's expression.

I think I'll enjoy the written version even more than the spoken version.
