There is not one big secret to success. Rather, learn the system of practices that enables ordinary people to have extraordinary victories, with self, family, work, and community.
Some good and interesting ideas, while other ideas can be viewed as common sense. I felt the book was stronger in the beginning than in the end (or maybe I lost interest towards the end). Still worth a read, though.
this book takes a lot of common sense items and organizes then in a great, easy to follow way. love the real life examples and the exercises as they take the concepts from well known platitudes to things I can powerfully integrate in my life on the every day. truly recommend it
