Very easy, quick read but with good information. Probably will work best for people who are already open to the idea of change and need a little guidance. I very much enjoyed this book and will be getting it for all my employees to read.

Very quick read; to the point. The concept is simple: focus on yourself rather than pointing the blame at everyone else. Interesting stories and a simple rule to remind yourself how to approach problems.
Great book on practicing accountability in work and life by being discplined in the questions we ask ourselves. Questions should involve what you can do to make the positive results, not dwell on things you can't control. I've been reading a lot of key takeaways aloud to my hubby while I read it, and I'm loaning this book to my coworkers! It's a keeper!
At only 70 minutes long this cd could contains a powerful yet concise message. If you can use this in your daily life, not just professionally but also personally you can become the force to change your own destiny! Read by the author it contains all the nuances that he intended when he wrote the book.
