How true. It was written several years ago but still applies to today. Practical advice. This audio book can be listened to over and over and you will hear new content every time.

I read this book before, and now listening to the author's reading of it is powerful. This is dense, well-articulated "self-evident" wisdom that is still on most best-seller lists for good reason.

This book is great. I've read quite a bit of these self help books. But non match up to this. If you want to be an effective person. Read this, and DO what it tells you to do. It really works...

Not what I expected. Perhaps 12 years in the corporate workforce had taught me many of the messages within this book already, not a lot was new to me. Regarding the audio format... the reader's voice put me to sleep. I do not recommend listening to this book while driving.

Easy, common-sense guidance -- a great re-centering tool that compels introspection.
