I don't read a lot of self-help in general, but this is exceptionally bad. What a thoughtless grift.

This book should be on everyone's tbr list. It's a short book. It only took an hour of my time to read, but has a basic principle that will last a lifetime. It teaches a practical method to change the way you view problems to help you find solutions. It ends with "now that you've finished the book, read it again." And you will want to read it again.

My boss enjoyed this book, so we listened to it today. It had some good points, but it was mostly empty/"inspirational" filler. Not a bad use of 70 minutes, but a the concept could have been summed up in couple of paragraphs rather than a book.

So, the Question Behind the Question:

1. Begins with “What” or “How.”

2. Contains the personal pronoun “I.”

3. Focuses on action.

I actually see it being more pertinent to my relationships than my career -- although good relationships will obviously help me in many areas.

A short book about accepting personal responsablity instead of adopting an attitude of victomization. It's mostly common sense stuff, but it's useful to be reminded and to have that information reinforced every once in a while.
