Keep Chopping Wood

an ordinary approach to achieving extraordinary success

By: Kevin DeShazo

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

We live in a drive thru culture. From the comfort of the driver’s seat in your car you can get dinner, money, dry cleaning, a car wash, medicine and more. When it comes to success, we have the same expectation of convenience. We want better results and we want them now. While everyone is looking for a shortcut or a lifehack to success, the best know that the work is the shortcut. The future you want to create is about the small, simple actions you take today. It requires belief in the vision, commitment to the process and the discipline to do the work. We all have talent, but do you have the discipline to become great? Keep Chopping Wood is a short story and field guide about what it takes for ordinary people to live extraordinary lives.

The little things

Such a great way of putting this in prospective. This can be used in every situation, business, and just life. Thank you for this book. I needed it at this time of my life.

Don’t overlook the basics

Definitely gave me an appreciation for understanding the basics and the need to put in the work in the moment to see the results further down the road.

It’s a cute story with a valid point.

Virtual voice can be unintentionally (mildly) humorous sometimes. It didn’t know the difference between saying one hundred and one v. One oh one for an intro course. Pack that one away for the robot wars.
