10 Steps To Success: Write It Down and Make It Happen by Matt Morris

informative inspiring lighthearted reflective fast-paced

3.0

This was an OK self help book. 

It uses the S.MA.R.T.  system.  
Which is basically: 
Specific
Measurable 
Attainable 
Relevant 
and Timeline

It's a goal based system.  Break down your goals starting with S and ending with T. 

While I found many parts of the book informative and inspiring,  I was a little turned off by the authors constant talk about attaining money, fancy cars and women. I get he's using his own goals as examples for you to use as a guide for your goals. It just kinda rubbed me the wrong way. 

I also didn't really like that he slipped in ads for his other books throughout, (with handy links to buy them). 

There were a few typos here and there but not enough to be super distracting.  A few strangely worded sentences too, for example: 
 
"Burgess was never been a professional novelist in the past"

The book ends at the 72% mark. The remainder of the book is written by someone named Tim Hanson. 
It's 150 questions for life coaching and personal growth.  
This section wasn't bad, just a different focus than the rest of the book, which is fine as it relates in a round about way. 
(This section was also a little better written. )

Looking at the authors (Matt Morris) other books it looks like he's made a career out of churning out self-published self help books on Amazon.  Which, good for him I guess.  🤷🏻‍♀️
