I have read a few self-help book, mainly due to curiosity more than believing I need help. Fortunately there are a few nuggets of information you can take from them. With Hal Elrod's book I do not not think this is the case.

Books such as The Miracle Morning usually have the same premise. A person is successful but is not fulfilled, overcomes adversity of some kind and comes out of it with the answer to people's problems. I am not taking anything away from the writer's accident as described in the beginning of the book. He should be admired for overcoming that alone. But to then face financial difficulty following his accident to then discover getting up early and doing things is the answer to everyone's problems is not the best premise for a book.

This one ticks all the same boxes as many other self help books. Eat more healthy, exercise more, write in a journal and read more, whilst at the same time selling us the Miracle Morning journal or the The Miracle Morning health shakes feels a little disingenuous especially when you know the writer is an ex-salesman.
