The book as reviewed contains information that people need, first-hand. It motivates, encouraged and throws in life coaching tips! The book sounds a good regardless of the editing and coherence! Good review!

Boxes that trapped us into some stereotype is never God's plan for our life. Getting out of these stereotype may require assistance. We must be sincere enough not to be impulsive especially why taking decisions. Love to read this book. Thanks for the review.

:techie-studyingbrown: :techie-studyingbrown: Am not gonna talk about the errors in the book but to my surprise it turns out that every body is trashing it off to the author.
As in nothing important was written .yes I agree with above review about the book and it's errors but to me I took the challenge to say that was really amazing
So no crap towards the author but may be redefinition of the book is much needed in the next edition...anyway I will rate you 3 over 5 for the time being hope I won't be disappointed by the next edition...wish you much luck
Much love keep it up

Not my theme, not my subject matter, definitely not my genre. Unfortunately, I will have to pass this book, because self-help and motivational non-fiction, in my opinion, don't worth time and effort spend on reading them.

What the book contains is encouraging and motivating but lacking originality. I might not be reading the book.

What a shame that a book offering insightful advice on so many different aspects of life be so boring. Hopefully the author will read you review and be able to revise the content and fix the typos. Sounds like a work in progress. Thanks for an honest review.

Am always up for hearing or reading people's thoughts about life. It's unfortunate though that it was poorly edited since it could do much better. Nonetheless, thanks for the honest review.

This sounds interesting, and the point that most people do not use logic to make decisions in their lives is very valid. In fact, many people think that they are logical, whereas they usually make emotional decisions and then use reverse logic to justify their choices. Any good salesman can verify this, and the point is that most people are actually very predictable, contrary to what they think. I would have to read this book to verify other arguments put forth by the author, but I do like the sound of the rest of the logic in the book. Your review was concise and interesting to read.

Wisdom is a motivational book for people who would like to motivate oneself on such themes as patience, wealth, responsibilities and a host of others! Highlighting the importance of understanding who our biggest teachers teachers are. Like our parents and our friends, responsibilities. The book went on to tells about Beauty is subjective, so nothing God created us ugly. Humans are trapped in boxes, so we should escape these boxes(eg. cellphones, cars, offices) by connecting with nature.

Thanks to you author

I had almost made up my mind about reading this book, but the lack of originality coupled up with detracting errors are a turn off.
Thank you for your honest review.

Thanks for the review. I totally understand how you feel and agree with your rating. Motivational books are not unique in this day and age so writers need to have originality or some sort of tension to draw the audience in because it is likely that readers have read or heard of the ideas before. In addition, a book with too many grammatical errors and typos will definitely reduce the writer's credibility. Good job for finishing the book

I like that the author explored different themes, such as patience, wealth, responsibility, and politics, while offering his opinions on these topics. There are positive elements to pick from the book such as liberating ourselves from boxes. I do hope the book is re-edited as it would be a great read. Thank you for your detailed review.
