    Makes one think about the path to mastery and some insights into how one may achieve it. Some concepts maybe outdated, as this is more than 20 years old now.

    Very interesting. I enjoyed his observations about how we Americans see the world and even how we stand and take blows. Then when the master chooses to be buried as a beginner, it really is inspiring!

    I find this book/ audiobook quite unimpressive. Perhaps my comprehension is not that good, but i find it difficult to understand that author's point. The examples and the analogies are, from my perspective, inappropriate. The flow of thoughts are quite disorganised and jump from one idea to another.

    Full of advice about learning, this book provides readers the philosophy of mastery. Great insights as well as stories were given to reinforce the unhurried nature of mastering a specific domain of knowledge, skills or competencies compared to the present goal oriented learning.

    From the summary to the book is a big stretch.
    I was OK to listen the summary. However after diving deep into the whole book.. I discovered the genes that have the greatest impact for me.
    My biggest take away is to learn to love the plateau with zen awareness instead of the hacker comfort zone. I’m tha plateau is the silence between the notes that makes the music a symphony..
    Love it!
    Bring it on. Step into the awareness of the moment.

    Loved every second of this beautiful gem. It was actually recommended by Seth Godin, during one of his interviews with Tim Ferriss. After second hearing, I can conclude that it fantastically written, beautifully narrated and truly leaves you with a knowledge for a lifetime. Persuit your own path of mastery and start by reading this book.

    Now a classic in the self help category; this little book asks us to resist the temptation to become a "dabbler," and instead stick with something until we excel at it. Motivational and to-the-point. And who doesn't want long-term fulfillment?

    A book everyone should read, smacks the modern give-it-me-now viewpoint in the face with a dose of stuff-takes-time-so-suck-it-up reality.
