I had slightly different expectations, I guess I hoped the book would be very specific on which behaviour to do when, but I understand that was a far-fetched misconception.

Once I accepted the book for what and how it is, I really enjoyed it. I connected with the authors and could easily picture myself in their examples. They keep you engaged by giving their own real-life examples, asking you to test yourself, and/or, what is most intersting to me, describing researches from the past that exhibited certain behaviour correlations.

As someone who's really not into reading self-help books, I would definitely recommend this to anyone who's even remotely intersted in improving self. I just hope I remember to apply in my life what I've learned!
