The book is an easy read and gives good advice.

I’ve read quite a few self-development books, but this one stands out as the best by far. What sets this book apart is how relatable and applicable its principles are to everyday life. Each principle is introduced with a story that provides context and helps illustrate the concept. Jay Alderton then dives deeper, offering clear explanations that make it easy to understand and apply the principles in real life. At the end of each chapter, there are worksheets designed to help you reflect and put what you’ve learned into practice. This hands-on approach makes the lessons even more impactful and ensures that you don’t just read about personal growth, you experience it. I was so impressed with the content that I purchased both a hardcopy and the audiobook. I’ve already finished listening to it once, and I’m about to start it again. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for practical and actionable advice on personal development. You won’t be disappointed, get yourself a copy!
