Poradnik bez porad, napisany tylko dlatego, że autor leczy własne kompleksy. Być może znajdzie się ktoś, kto znajdzie w tej książce jakieś cenne dla siebie uwagi, ale jak dla mnie to strata czasu. Dokończyłem słuchanie tego audiobooka (papierowej wersji nie dokończył bym nigdy) tylko dlatego, że nie lubię zostawiać książki w połowie. Ale była to droga przez mękę.

Straszny bubel. Cała książka to zżynane treści z wielu innych książek i poglądów ich autorów. Kiedy już się trafiają myśli autora, to sam sobie w nich przeczy stwierdzając, że to czego właśnie próbuję Cię nauczyć sam nie potrafi w 100%. Nie polecam.

No nonsense style, which i really enjoyed. My big takeaway from this book was the area of planning, made real sense.

Okej, nic w sumie rewolucyjnego ale dobrze zebrane informacje

[Elwirka · Rating 3 out of 5]

For people who suffer for serious lack of self confidence and didn't read tons of books about it and similar subjects earlier. Otherwise it's just a revision (literally - book is synthesis of some best books about self-development ever) with some new stuff from author (valuable stuff, I have to admit).

The author has done a great job at reflecting his own journey and his own research of current psychological studies.I found the book helpful with a number of very practical suggestions on how to engage in new self-reflection and next steps.

I persevered through the first 100 or so pages. I found this book to be full of complaints /blame of others for his lack of confidence & success. The rest of the information was quoting other books or citing research completed by others.

I appreciate the honesty of Kelsey's advice on navigating from one's past into success.
