A different perspective

Absolutely love this book. I have the audiobook, kindle, and hard copy. This has changed me and given me a different perspective. This book has helped me evaluate and really think and get to root cause of why I think the way I do. This book is worth every word. I was legit sad when it ended, I love her wisdom and the insight she provides.

There is good advice and thought here but lots of repetition and essays need development

There is good advice in this book, but it is also repetitive and often it feels like a laundry list rather than an essay. I think the author could re write this book and add more depth and also identify the number of areas she repeats and cut those out or develop the thoughts.

Changing the way you think

This was my first book I listened to start changing the way I think about life. It really makes me realize how you think and how you should start thinking, doing, and becoming. Only one thing I disliked is there was so much to take in you have to take it in bits and pieces so you will really understand everything and not forget it all the next day, but that’s also a positive because the more the merrier. Almost everything she said will impact you in a positive way.

Great Book

A great listen. I Really enjoyed it. It allows your mind to wander and flow with thoughts.

perspective questioning

these essays don't offer new, profound advice. They are short and direct. The Collection as a whole includes different ways at looking at your feelings, which can be profound.
