Justifiably popular

I won't add anything that no one has said before but certainly this book is worth a read and I dare say anyone's life would be much improved by instituting these habits.

Effective book - easy to listen to, easy to follow

I bought this audiobook to listen to in the car and what a great choice that was. The book is structured well and is segmented so as each "habit" is broken down into its component parts



I have listened to this book fully twice and a few of the sections a couple of times more. I have already modified my habits at work and at Home with some very interesting, positive outcomes



I would recommend this audiobook to anyone but especially to those who are frustrated at work or at home with certain aspects of their life. It has been one of my best purchases

Simple home truths we all need to hear

This book is well read and easy to understand. I am likely to listen to it again, not because it was too complex, but because the principles set out in it are so fundamental that it seems to me appropriate to start each day remembering the principles explained in the book. Don't expect new pearls of wisdom: here you will find all the home truths that pop-psychology omits - the simple truths about human beings - I certainly needed to hear it.

Excellent!

I have listened this book every day when I go to work in the train. It is the best book I have ever known in personal management field. In short, it is a hand book of life. We can actually use the principles in this book in our every day life. No matter what religion we follow, it can go with all the values because it points out the universal principles. This is a must to listen book. I recommend everyone to read this book, and has a beautiful life.

listened to it at 1.25 speed

I listened to most of this book at 1.25 speed as I found the voice actor to be a bit slow at speaking.

Outstanding

I've gone thru the first chapter of the book three times before I was ready to move forward and that was not the only time when I had to repeat further chapters again and again. Thoughtfully with great examples to explain concepts to the reader. I simply love this book and is undoubtedly number one in my library with a plan to get back to it from time to time.

Good but too long

the overall points raised are very interesting, however like many self-help books, there is quite a lot of unnecessary fluff to navigate.
