A bit cheesy? Didn't convince me.

Świetny kryminał i bardzo wciągająca seria. Jedna z lepszych książek tego gatunku, jaką czytałem. Uwaga, trup ściele się gęsto

I don't buy it. I had an audio version. I had the impression that it was the same stuff as in “The Power of Now”.

A one-of-kind type of book. Written from perspective, with honesty, helps to strengthen such perspective in one's own life - to accept, to appreciate and admire.

It might be a good book, but it's not my genre. I wasn't convinced.

I liked the book. But I do prefer when Stephen King doesn't do too much fantasy (I'm talking about the genre).

It reminds me of the “Dark Tower” series.

I decided to give two stars as the book seemed OK in the beginning. However, I had the impression that there was little value in reading further. The interesting got lost somewhere on the way...

Incredible, breathtaking. My second (third) Bryce Courtenay novel and again... bullseye! I recommend the Audible.com version narrated by Humphrey Bower. The author and the narrator compliment each other very well.

I didn't buy the idea. I gave up reading the book.

Too many shifts in the plot, too many characters. I didn't get hooked and after several attempts - ditched the book.

The book teaches how to use reason, emotions and logic in your presentations. It proposes a structure based on film-making analogies.

However, the general philosophy was usable for me mostly. A big part of the book seemed inapplicable. It is worth reading though.

If things like habit-stacking, environmental aspects related to building habits (or getting rid of some others) or the compounding effect of repetition don't sound familiar, it might be worth giving the book a try. Plus, it's short.

Fast-paced. Good read. Not too deep, even if the theme makes one wonder.

Simply put - amazing read.

Personally I wasn't moved by the first 100 or so pages, but then the real fun started. There are gems one can find here - insights, ideas, habits worth considering. I find this to be a very valuable read and definitely one that I will return to.

Perhaps a whole book might be too much, but I find this system to be among the best. Especially useful for you MS Outlook users out there, but not only.

Heartily recommended, especially for those involved in project management. Plenty of practical insight which provides valuable perspective for the aspiring Alphas.

A great read! Fast-paced, entertaining and informative. Interesting characters. A pity the author died before his series became a bestseller.

Beauty of a book

Interesting story, exotic setting, convincing characters, and great climax. I enjoyed the book all the way through - heartily recommended

Every leader should read this
