Nice, quick read. Not much in here that you wouldnt know if you are at all participating in society, but it is strewn together with a positive tone. A name drop here and there helps to get an idea of the practical side of things but a good bit of this was a hype piece. If you need hyped up to get it together, maybe this is for you. If you're looking for practical advice, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

It's a quick read but sums up all the important points to help one manage time and see it as an invaluable resource. I wished it was longer.

Concise, relevant and a read to contemplate your decisions. A well rounded book that doesn't scold you or push an agenda, it simply asks you, are you doing the best for you. I highly reccomend it, and a bonus as it can be read in as little as 30-60 minutes.
