Reviews

[Amol Sheogaonkar · Rating 3 out of 5]

A practical book to help you think exponentially.

[Marty · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book is a simply a series of strung together inspirational quotes, famous people anecdotes and the author’s quips and preaching. There is no cohesion between sections and the one section with exercises (legacy map) is weak on instructions and pointers (rather it’s just a guided set of to do lists). It’s his own coaching “manifesto” for the aging whom he assumes only want a life if leisure in retirement (not true).

I was surprised at how much I loved this book! It really helps you think about your goals and what you want your future to look like. It definitely had me thinking and I was constantly taking notes. I highly recommend!

Okay, but I expected more

A nice enthusiastic message but I kept waiting for some real information I could work with. Sounded like a continuous sales pitch with a lot of name dropping and cliche phrases.
