This book swung from saying the most cringey “google give me five bullet points on motivation,” to some good things I agreed with and changed my perspective. The last 1/3 of the book however is just hard to get through. This is like someone wanted to make the 200 most popular self help books from 1990 to 2018 into a list of bullet points with some corporate-speak comparisons to life as the only examples. Truly awful. Get the same information in a much more compelling way by reading what this book pulled from.

At first I thought bro was actually reading essays for us, but then it turned out this book was just a collection of inspirational Instagram reels' scripts. So I guess it did change what I thought? But it did not change the WAY I think. A very shallow and superficial, middle-school ahh attempt to "think". Well, I was expecting to let you help us digest 101 Essays on Nature, The Lancet, IEEE, or whatever peer-reviewed stuff with some unique perspectives.
