What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Makes ‘The Secret’ seem like a fairytale”
Sublime<br/>Evidence based<br/>Manditory The turning point for me was something that I am currently benefiting from. The POWER OF PROCESS. One quote that I remember roughly said, "The cause of all man’s problems are due to his inability to sit alone, in a room, for many hours." This "druge-work" is a powerful duty we all have in anything that we may be trying to get better at. It is these long a repetitive tasks that makes us sharpen our sword for wielding in a world full of unmasterful types. You will stick out if you stick to it!! No I haven’t yet.. I plan on listening to this over and over and then moving on to Robert’s previous work on the 48 Laws of Power. I’m not sure if the book or the audio will be better for that though. This is not merely a take this or that and try and apply it. It is a feet first deep end dive to the truth of what we really want. This is OWNERSHIP! Salvery seems so taboo but it is real even today! We are decided for without thinking from businesses left and right and we can not eve make our own decisions! WE ARE UNTRAINED in our confidence of self relience. Like a cat that will die in the wild if he does not grow up there. Are we living?..Or are we just merely surviving? You must change your mind before you can change your actions. This is not pop-tarts folks. This is wild bison meat you just killed yesterday. Learn to provide for yourself! Wake up or die.— James, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “The best book to read for any walk of life!”
I have many books but none like this one! The audible was and is the best way to go. I listen to this countlessly. Take notes immensely! And, practice these principles daily. 50 is amazing and I admire the man’s work ethic and most importantly, his business acumen. One of the best books by far. If I had ever wanted to intern underneath his genius, this my dear is the closest I think at this time I could ever learn from him! GREAT WORK! Loved every word! And, look forward to playing it again. Now, on to Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter!— Audible customer, Audible listener
4/5 stars — “"Banal" rhymes with "canal" not "anal" “
If I can get past the narrator pronouncing banal wrong over and over, which clearly I can’t (I’ve never read anything that used the word "banal" quite so much), I actually was pleasantly surprised by this book. The biographical pieces were pretty repetitive and could have been a little more developed, but the comparison between major historical figures and ‘hood life and the reciprocal interpretation of history from a ‘hood point of view was really interesting and compelling. We could all learn a lot of creative business strategies from those with street smarts, but I’d never though about learning self help/life lessons from the street life. All in all, the book was worth the listen, despite some structural problems. Still… make sure you pronounce "banal" right or you’ll sound like a real roob.— Claire, Audible listener
