My Thoughts
I’ll admit, this isn’t my typical kind of read. I do have an MBA, but I’m not a business person, per se. I got my degree with the intent of opening a bookstore someday. It’s an iffy proposition these days, but not impossible. Maybe I’ll do it someday, but my true dream is to be a writer. I do a lot of writing these days, but mostly book reviews. So, I could probably benefit from this book’s advice.
The author offers up a ton of beautiful little nuggets of wisdom, but a few rubbed me the wrong way, especially the concept that we all have the same 24 hours. Yes, it is an undeniable fact, but it is a little ableist. It also counteracts a previous concept he said that I agree with wholeheartedly – the danger of the word “should.” That’s something we’ve been working on in our house, and let me tell you: when you start realizing that “should” is a horrible word and replacing it with things like “I wish I had,” “I must,” and “I will,” it is powerful!
If you need some help to achieve a goal, I think this book could offer some tools to help you reach it. There are some great resources and tips to help you focus on overcoming the roadblocks holding you back. I enjoyed the personal touches the author included, especially the vulnerability of his personal stories. He has a powerful message, and his 12 steps remind me a little of some other famous 12 steps – but not so much so that I think he’s nabbed them or anything.
I’m grateful to the author and Love Books Tours for including me on this tour!
