Summary

Over the past few years, Brianna Wiest has gained renown for her deeply moving, philosophical writing. This new compilation of her published work features pieces on why you should pursue purpose over passion, embrace negative thinking, see the wisdom in daily routine, and become aware of the cognitive biases that are creating the way you see your life.

Some of these pieces have never been seen; others have been read by millions of people around the world. Regardless, each will leave you thinking: This idea changed my life.

Goosebumps, smiles, thoughts and tears throughout the entire book.

I thought it would take me a while to get through this book but it was demolished in 3 days….

Delivery is so dry and hard to listen to

Struggled through the first few chapters because the narration is so very robotic and monotone.

I know that the content is good from having read on or two of the books featured but I just couldn't sick with it.

101 different lists that say the same thing

101 different lists that say the same thing in a slightly different way. Not life changing and could have been finished about four hours quicker

Good memory jogger

If you can get by the list format there is some great reminders and also insights. I enjoyed it though maybe better slightly shorter as felt it repeated a little. Worth a listen

a whole programme of how to live a best life in one book

loved everything, and the narration on the audible version was perfect; tone, speed and clarity
I advise everyone who wants to grow, to read or listen to this book

There are some truly insightful thoughts.

The actual read is not the best, I would say a bit overdramatic and slow for my taste but speding it to 1.10 makes a great improvement. i found a lot of things helpful and insightful. Bot a problem to go through the chapters most applicable for yur beeda first and recommend repeating them. Would recommend to write down the advice which to deem most applicable to yourself. There is definitely value to this book.

Utterly brilliant and life changing

These are things that most of us know subconsciously but ignore because we think we don’t have the right to be happy, the aptitude to achieve or the ability to change the way we see ourselves. This writer knows better and has been kind enough to share her knowledge.

I Persevered and was Glad

This book reads like one list after another. At first I was very put off by it but I persevered. I didn't agree with all of the content but I'm glad I persevered with the book until the end. There were lots of positives I took away from the book but I suspect a re-read might be better done with a physical version and a highlighter pen.
