Reviews

Listened over and over


(5 stars)

Unlike the one star comment who says it is boring. I found this book to be really interesting. I suggest the person who made that comment to remember the writer is no longer with us, was from a different era, cannot reply to your dumb comment. I find this really interesting and if you can be bothered to follow up some of the contents advise it will be found to be most beneficial. Perhaps you don't fall in the category in the preface, the part where it mentions if you have reasonable intelligence. I would have liked to thank the author myself if he were alive.

(5 stars)

I really enjoyed all the different readers on each chapter. Having a variety of readers made it more interesting to listen to a long book. Leland has an excellent method for mastering the well in this book and it is worth listening to and considering and applying to your life.

Very good work

(5 stars)

this is a beautiful book and easily understood book on the capabilities of our mind and will. I am using the techniques in this book and I am definitely seeing the results. I'm looking forward to all the potential I can unlease from the use of my own mind.

bullshit bingo


(2.5 stars)

While general concepts of will power are explained, the author fails in my opinion to undermine his statements by concrete methods. Vague statements, common believes states and cryptic quotes add to the bad picture
