Reviews
To the point
Great voice. The content is good reminder to not waste time. A bit too much on reading but the point is made.
Still relevant to this day
Lithium
I was surprised to learn that the thoughts reflected in this book, published in 1908, has so much relevance to this day and age.
A R Sapi
Simple, but not easy to employ, ideas about the use of every minute of a day. The ideas are based on a focus on developing interests to the point of engagement and intelligence. Well written and read.
app really lets u listen to books w/no confusing steps
Ahead of it's time.
Thomas A
Listen to it not as another self help book but as the idea of living in the moment, finding purpose and passion and self improvement at its orgins, fresh and grounded, before it became saturated in the milanial era. The reading is engaging and it properly accents the author's grounded English humor.
Relevant to the day
