Obnoxious sales tone

Great content. Although a little oversimplified/ uninformed at times so not a good entry read into productivity. For example if you want to lose weight, eat less calories. Gee, thanks for the advice.

But lots of great anecdotes from ppl who have been successful and feel inspired to take action nevertheless. Appreciated the metaphors on momentum, mo as the narrator personifies him

Persevere

I am usually immediately set on how I am going to rate the book that I have just listened to, but this one, I am still a little undecided.
I was very close to giving up on this book, within the first 20 mins of listening. I feel that I do not need to hear the authors endless accomplishments, when I have already purchased the title and I did not necessarily agree with some of the initial actions spoken about.
The narrative also took some getting used to. Darren Hardy in my mind sounds very much like a game show host. When you 'get into' the book, it does work, but it takes a little time to adjust, when comparing to other narrators.
I cannot say that I learnt anything new, but it was good to 'compound' the information that I already knew, to make it have an effect on my life.
Definately persevere with this book, its a worthwhile read and if nothing else, it is highly motivational.

Cheesy but relevant

This audio tells you things you probably already know, but need to hear again. If you don’t like cheesy pep talks, not the listen for you

simple ideas but very effective

The same messages I've heard before from Jim rohn but a different approach. I would definitely recommend.

initially unsure about the narrator but its a very useful book and fairly short and easy to listen to.

Decent. But kinda of knew the majority already.

We are the sum of our own habits at the end of the day. Good for those who are completely blind to having good routines/structure in their life. Kind of knew most of this stuff already but worth a listen.
Didn't agree about the advice related to marriage/relationships but that's open to interpretation.

A good listen but a lot of it is duplicates of other books

A good short listen. I have found these books tend to say the same thing in a different way.

Great Guide in Small Package

When it comes to the most practical tips and guides on how to compound your life and make the best out of it, this is the best piece I've come across. Darren reveals a lot of effective guidelines without the usual long and dragged narratives out there. if you don't have all the time in the world but need to put your life in the right direction I will highly recommend this. it's all about the little improvements that compound over time. I'm already doing a lot of these things but I'm looking forward to consciously putting a lot more into practice.

good snappy little book 📖 and an enjoyable read.

it can be read on a high speed due to the way it is narated and has lots of nuggets you can use so take notes to implement them. not great for .oney investing like you might believe the title to be within stocks and shares but its good for a way you should live ur life x

some great tips

This book echoes a lot of wisdom from some other books I've read such as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The One Thing.

One of the great takeaways of this book was the power of association in order to help you drive your efforts to success.
