My Review:
3.5/5 Stars

This book sat on my desk for about a year and I would just pick it up when I had a minute or two. Overall I think it gives create tips and tricks of how to better think critically and effectively to have a positive impact on your life. It referenced very successful people such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Frances Hesselbein.
I do think it would have be more beneficial to me if I had read it more cohesively instead of page by page over the course of a year. It is a very short read (124 pages) so for sure an attainable quick read. Not my favorite self-improvement book, but if you want a quick one to hopefully motivate you; I think this one by Maxwell would do the job.

  1. This sounds interesting. I don't think I could sit down and read a whole book like this, though. I would be more like you and just read a few pages at a time. :p Great review!
