The concepts outlined in this book are nothing earth-shattering. I didn’t get much new information out of it, but it was an easy and pleasant enough read. However, I found it extremely repetitive. If we took out all of the fluff, this book could’ve been a blog post.
I also got the sense (especially in parts II and III, which are about real-life scenarios and exercises on how we can implement the 12 and a half emotional ingredients outlined in Part I) that the the aim of the book was really to sell you something, to get you to visit his website/social media pages and use his hashtags, and to promote GaryVee’s brand and companies.
Overall, it was a quick and easy read, but I was disappointed with its contents.

look, i've never read a business book in my life and I'm a 21 year old university student, so this book really was not for me. Besides that, I think the contents of this books are extremely useful for any young professional. This is one for the finance bros and hustlers. This book really got me rolling my eyes at a lot of points though

(whenever they mention Linkedin, I roll my eyes haha)
