Ratings and reviews

First of all I really enjoyed this book. It has put so many things into perspective for me and would definitely read/listen again. Just can't read and do not apply these things to your everyday life. Application is the key.

This book will help you realize on what's obvious, but what you've always overlooked or taken for granted. It also emphasizes how to achieve your goals with the right way. I really hoped I read it when I was younger. But like what this book says, nothing's too late if you really want it.

Great read! I like that this book gives a different aspect on looking at excuses most people make, and turning it into positive thoughts. I am a very positive individual and this just help confirm why I am the way I am
