Summary
Richard Reed built Innocent Drinks from a smoothie stall on a street corner to one of the biggest brands in Britain. He credits his success to four brilliant pieces of advice, each given to him just when he needed them most.
Ever since, it has been Richard's habit, whenever he meets somebody he admires, to ask them for their best piece of advice. If they could tell him just one thing, what would it be?
Richard has collected pearls of wisdom from some of the most remarkable, inspiring and game-changing people in the world - in business, tech, philanthropy, politics, sport, art, spirituality, medicine, film, and design.
From Hollywood greats like Judi Dench and Richard Curtis, to entrepreneurial legends like Richard Branson and Simon Cowell; from sports stars and TV personalities like Andy Murray and James Cordon to political activists and born survivors like Mandela's Comrades and Katie Piper, Richard has picked some of the world's most interesting brains to give you a lesson in how to live, how to love, how to create and how to succeed.

Probably a great inspiring read for under 25s
Was looking forward to listening to this book as I really love what the other has done with their life and business.
Whilst I don't question the author's intention and motivation, I found the content and tone a little naive. I found myself cringing at some the statements.
Finished listening to the book though and got a few useful insights.

Throughly Enjoyable
This was an unexpected find, and I really enjoyed it. So inspiring and intriguing to hear stories and advice from such a broad range of inspirational people. It had me totally hooked! I highly recommend it.

Complete waste of time.
Poorly delivered. Poor content.
Hours of listening for a dozen good quotes / outlooks
Sadly disappointing.

Beautifully Compelling
I bought this book with a fear that it would be little more than a sickly collection of life quotes from famous people. I couldn't have been more wrong. Richard Reed meets some incredible people from all sides of the spectrum, and gives a greater insight into their personalities than the media allow. Sure, there are many quotes (some sickly) of which many are repeated etc "be nice". But knowing that takes nothing away from the beauty of this book, charmingly written by the modest Richard Reed. I simply can't wait until the next volume.

A left wing favourite
A few interesting nuggets mixed amongst a massive essay about why anyone who voted leave is an evil idiot!
Ok if you love the guardian.

Emotional, inspirational and down-right wonderful
In all honesty, I bought this book by accident, and had unjustly assumed this to be 'another book of quotes'. I have never been so happy to be proved wrong!
The book's conversational writing style drew me in and brought me to tears on more than one occasion.
I highly recommend this book to anyone with a burning desire to make a positive change in the world.

An easy, punchy and inspiring book
There's a huge amount of wisdom in Richard's book and most of it comes from the people he interviews. No politically correct soft interpretations of what the interviewees say, just honest views from people like Joanna Lumley, Richard Branson and Bill Clinton. Read or listen to the book, you will be a better person for doing so!
