- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not too shabby. Actually, I would almost say that it's terrific. The ideas from the writer made sense to me. I agreed with everything, and that's another reason that I am so ecstatic about this audiobook. The writer did not randomly pick little bits and pieces of bad suggestions, but rather, analyzed the claims enough.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not too shabby. As a matter of fact, I would practically say that it's top-notch. You probably won't lament buying this audio book. It gives you what it claims it does. This was worth my time. Lastly, a book which delivers. Another thing: The storyteller appeared to be so great that I would definitely listen to it in the future. And perhaps more than one time. I simply cannot recall every single thing that's being stated in these audiobooks, so it would be worth reminding myself of what was being mentioned.

I agreed with everything, and that's one other reason that I am so ecstatic about this audiobook. The writer did not arbitrarily choose bits and pieces of bad suggestions, but rather, analyzed the claims enough. There were many things within this book that I didn't know before. I am grateful I discovered it. It was actually worth my time, especially because I listened to it while I was driving my car to work.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a hidden gem. This audio book contains helpful facts. This is the ultimate mix of a fantastic storyteller and a great author, who partnered and chose to turn this book into a helpful item. Good for them. I had the ability to comprehend every thing plainly, not only because the narrator spoke words very well, but also since the information in it consisted of new things to be learned.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a secret gem. This book includes precious facts. I think the first couple of sections were my favorite ones, because the entire idea that the subtitle describes, gets discussed. All of the essentials are here. Later in the book, more depth gets included, and I believe this is what makes it so good. I am trying to mention something negative about this audiobook, but I can't. It's just way too good. So without further exaggeration, I just believe everybody needs to think of listening to it.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/55 stars! By far the best thing that's happened to me this weekend. This is a secret jewel. This audiobook has helpful facts. I do not always appreciate any books, but this caught the eye. And because it did, I started paying attention to it. It was some of the best time I spent, especially because I was doing other things in the meantime.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Obviously this is a self-published book. It is a rambling mess that only has a few useful ideas. The author is not a good writer and doesn’t have a clue how to properly organize and outline the material. It is just a waste of time.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Both the storyteller and the writer put some actual effort into this. 5 stars! Without a doubt the best thing that's happened to me this week. I didn't stop listening till completion. That's how much I liked it. I was glad to hear the appropriate articulation of all the words by a proficient audiobook producer.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The producer's performance was simply wonderful, and so was the writer's wording. I endorse this audio book for different reasons. I think the first several sections were my favorite ones, since the whole idea that the title refers to, is explained. All of the essentials are here. Later in the book, more depth gets included, and I believe this is what makes it so great.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I do not feel you have to keep searching. This audio book mentions it all. When you're motivated about something, you typically tell other people about it. So, that's what I'm doing here. I wish I was actually good at publishing customer reviews, but you'll just need to be satisfied with this mediocre suggestion, namely, that the book was intriguing all the way through, till the very end.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5There are so many things I loved about this, but I can only say so much. This book blew my mind, both the information and the storyteller's presentation. Let me think for a second ... how should I explain this? It was expert, simple, and reasonable. With that being said, yes, I do highly endorse the audiobook. No question about it.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Lots of fluff. Good part was about working as a magician or mentalist. Bad part was non relevant stuff about workman's compensation and insurance legislation.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5An awesome audiobook and very well preformed. I Highly recommend it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I absolutely LOVED this audiobook! Seriously! You probably won't lament getting this audiobook. It delivers what it says it does. It is simple: If you understand this audio book, you will definitely discover more about the issue. The title of this book matches the information, so there is no question about how legitimate this book is. So, there you have it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This the greatest audio books I have encountered, which is the reason that I am taking a tiny minute to create a comment about it. I simply just wanted to write something positive about this book. I wish I was truly great at publishing testimonials, but you'll just have to be satisfied with this average recommendation, namely, that the book was fascinating all the way through, till the very end.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5You have got to like something like this. This took a ton of time to write and record. I 'd like everyone to understand that I recommend this audio book. It's an intriguing idea, the whole premise of this book. You don't usually see that in other books. And that's exactly why it can use a person like me to compose a couple of positive aspects of it.
