I didn't enjoy this book. A lot of the advice was contradictory. For example, when discussing being disciplined at work at being successful, he suggests going in an hour early and leaving an hour later, and working through your lunch break. But then... even though you'd be working an 11 hour day instead 8, you're also supposed to exercise an hour everyday and somehow find time to spend quality time with your spouse and family. All good advice, but not feasible on a daily basis, especially if you add a commute to your work day.
Also, his book is incredibly heternormative, refers only to male/female, husband/wife relationships. It is very easy to make works inclusive by using words like "partner" or "spouse" and "person," but it felt like he went out of the way to emphasize the male/female relationship exclusively.
No bueno.

Good self help pep up talk. Don't know if it's one I will be returning to soon. Got the job done. If you're stuck in a rut, pick it up.
This book really is a tale of two halves. This first half is amazing and I really loved reading. It really has some great self help tips and really changed my outlook a certain few things. The business section of the book is full of conservative takes, it really seems that Tracey is someone who adores money more than anything. The third section of the book is very surface level tips. It’s not the worst book but it seem sloppy at times when reading it.
it is that i had to read it for an internship otherwise i would have dropped it.
Outstanding!! If there's one message you get out of this book, it's that *you* have to take 100% ownership of your life. There are no "easy buttons" in life. Of course the book contains numerous quotes from famous people to drive a point home, but it's really the down to Earth, no-BS, common sense approach that the author uses to illustrate what makes a small handful of people reach their goals, and why the vast majority seem stuck in a endless loop of "someday I'll...".
