- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The book was awesome but the reader added inflection that imposed a more pompous tone than the author’s own words. The read itself was really interesting but at times listening was painful.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5John D Rockefela is one of the men that inspires me most in history...
One thing I learned from this autobiography is.
1) don't get carried away by little success.. always keep your head down..
2) Never grow impatient or discourage over major setbacks or failures...
3) arrange matters so that you can overcome unforeseen setbacks that comes on your way.
4) don't engage in anything that won't yield great results.
5) ensure that you are not decieving yourself in any situation. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5An interesting look at an interesting life. Now I want to know more. The narrator sounded a bit arrogant.
