This is a long review that contains important things from the book, and I believe that it'd be a nice read for anyone who picks it up. Life requires endurance and perseverance. Thanks for your honest review.

I love no nonsense people. Kevin Leman is one of them, and it sounds like this guy is in the same category. Thanks for the review.

I had to do some self introspection after i read this book.i asked myself questions like "Am I where I want to be in life?" I am so buying it and cannot wait to share with my friends. Definitely taking off the blindfold.

The title is definitely catchy and while reading your review, I could actually relate with some situations like the "yeah, but..." excuses we always give. I also like the fact that he said success is different for each person, that is something everyone needs to know for sure. If the review is this informative, I look forward to reading the actual book.

Well hello there.. I am not even go make an excuse about my profile cuz it's not finished. I am going to say I like how your book started out the preface. Even though you're writing a book is like you're speaking to us well speaking to you know, speaking to me like one on one you know.. It made me laugh about the butts. And it really hit home and hard and it kind of got my emotions going I'm not going to get all into detail but I've been dealing with a lot and my mental state have been bad and I'm fighting it alone I once had a car had a job have my own apartment and I lost it all. Even though my insurance was screwed me over and I was thinking my money back but that's another story but anyway I couldn't walk for almost a year cuz of my torn ligaments and they couldn't do surgery because of my weight so I had to lay and roll and kinda of hop because I couldn't put pressure on my ankle. Laying around gain weight couldn't do anything for myself go to the bathroom not moving I was thinking of the childhood traumas getting all the adult traumas and everything hit me at once and it swallowed me whole in this dark place. That was 2019 between 18 and 19 and this year is 22 besides being locked in the room not talking to anyone not send anyone I'm not going anywhere I always tell myself I'm going to lose this weight I'm going to get better make an excuse I'm like yeah but I'm hurting. Yeah but I might try standing I'm just hurting my back hurt and my legs hurt it you don't understand I'm going to try tomorrow yeah what if this happened yeah what if you know excuse that excuse and not even doing anything I can barely stand up for a minute without my last quivering and back hurting I'm at my highest weight that I ever been in my life and I'm embarrassed to say I don't need your life it's just it's just passed me by I stay in this four walls in my room but just reading the preface of that book of your book it gave me a lot to think about it wasn't a lot there but it was. It's hard to explain.. I can't wait to read more..

Latest Review: The Fisherman and his Foundlings by Phillip Leighton-Daly

Post by Raquel Sojo »

A self-help book with a realistic vision. I like the structure of this book; going from less to more makes it understandable in a progressive way and without being. Taking responsibility for your own life and living with intention trumps any motivational premise. This is a book I'm interested in reading. Thanks for this detailed review.

What a great review! This book sounds excellent. The title itself is intriguing and got me more interested. I could feel that easy to blame our fate when we become the 'victim of life'. Everyone deserves success in their life, differently from one person to another. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result or doing various things and expecting the same result. This book might have the same content as many self-help books with plenty of inspirational quotes, but I'm sure it is still worth reading. Thank you for the review.

I will admit that I've recently found myself in a regular victim mentality and it has taken a toll on my mental health. I often have found myself wondering why why why without considering the places I could go if i just took responsibility for myself and put in work. The book here seems to be an excellent option for me to remind myself about self accountability and that makes it feel particularly unique. Thank you for writing this review and I will read this soon

Latest Review: Natural Relief for Anxiety and Stress by Gustavo Kinrys, MD

Post by Monell Williams-JnoBaptiste »

I'm a fan of self help books. I felt that the review was a tad bit long, slightly tedious and repetitive. But as someone who've read multiple self help books the narrative is similar to the others; Your success depends on you! Whether this is said lovingly or with sterner language such as those used in this literary piece, they all ultimately say the same thing differently.
What I can certainly appreciate however, is someone who's been there, done that and has passed on his knowledge to those to come. We cannot, or should I say- should not, get tired of learning and relearning the keys to happiness and success. With every self help book one is guaranteed to be one step closer to their moment of enlightenment. So for those like me who know that in every story there is a lesson may we continue to be grateful for those who spare the time to encourage and teach us. Congratulations to the author and to the BOTD for this self-improvement literary masterpiece.

I appreciate the idea that the author wanted to demonstrate and in certain respects he is right, but it's a book not very based on reality, nor is it very inclusive, it's not something I would recommend.

I love the title, and this sounds like a motivational book to read. People often justify inaction with "buts"! I just downloaded it, and will share thoughts once I am done.
