      Unlearnable Lessons on My Father’s Deathbed

      Mar 21, 2017

      I was at my father’s side much of the time in his final weeks, a witness to both the gifts and miseries of being near death. Nurses came and went, patient, long-suffering. They sat beside him for hours at a time, dousing spongy lollipops in water and

    • 4/5
      This book changed my perspective.
    • 5/5
      Genius in its approach and the greatest example of why Og Mandino is the master.
    • 5/5
      excellent book
    • 4/5
      It is abook that gives easy matra to repeat for thirty days. According to the author if you do these matra for thirty days each your life will be changed. I have not had the discipline to do that so I am not sure if it would work.
    • 2/5
      Trite and inconsistent self-help maxims couched as deep religious wisdom.
    • 2/5
      This venerated story just didn't work for me. The concept is good, but I don't like the way it was approached. Leveraging the Christmas story and Paul declared a brazen hubris not backed by the merit of the message. I also found the word choice overly descriptive. Every noun gets its own adjective, e.g. "Beyond the long row of silent tents, strands of thick hemp curled around four ancient olive trees." Moving from this cadence into the main inspirations made them seem more hypnotic than inspiring. There are plenty of useful meditations about persistence and positivity, but they weren't delivered in a way the resonates with me.
