He lost me at some parts, and it’s not as academic as I was hoping, but it helped me put words to a lot of feelings I’ve had.

Was really hoping for more depth to the argument and less repetition. I think this could have been a really nice presentation or a couple of articles.

¡Súper interesante! En un primer momento parece el "típico" libro de productividad, "monotasking", etc, y en este aspecto es interesante; pero luego va mucho más allá y propone una dedicación mucho más integral y social.

I haven’t read any of Pete Davis’ books, so I didn’t know what to expect from this one, but it was fantastic. We’re all flooded with choices and options more than ever, which makes it difficult for us to stick to one thing. We’re afraid to commit to one thing because we want to leave our options open, and FOMO is definitely a problem I struggle with, and I know many others do as well. Pete Davis presents a compelling argument for why we need to stay dedicated to relationships, projects, jobs, interests, and much more. Without even realizing it, this book was something I needed in my life because I have 1,000 ideas a day and often jump from one to another. I took a bit longer to read this book than others because I really wanted to savor the lessons from it and implement some of the ideas into the different projects that I’m currently working on. This was an excellent book, and now I look forward to checking out the other books that Pete has written.
