Story
In 2001 Mo Gawdat realized that despite his incredible success, he was desperately unhappy. A lifelong learner, he attacked the problem as an engineer would: examining all the provable facts and scrupulously applying logic. Eventually, his countless hours of research and science proved successful, and he discovered the equation for permanent happiness. Thirteen years later, Mo's algorithm would be put to the ultimate test. After the sudden death of his son, Ali, Mo and his family turned to his equation—and it saved them from despair.

Good book, but could have been better
Reviewed: 12-02-24
The readers accent made the book harder to listen to. But overall the information provided (outside the main story of his son) was really good.

Story
Learn what financial advisors don’t want you to know! Robert’s rich dad often told him: “The faster your money moves, the higher the returns and the lower your risk.” Conventional financial wisdom recommends that you save money and invest for the long term. In other words: park your money. That was not rich dad’s advice. He taught Robert to increase the velocity of my money. And, even if you start small, it’s advice that anyone can follow and benefit from.

A Part II of Rich Dad Poor Dad
Reviewed: 12-23-21
I was disappointed in this book. It really just talked about what his rich dad said.. and what his poor dad said. It really is a repeat of Rich Dad Poor Dad or just a part 2 of that book. I felt there was hardly anything new in this book.

Story
For many years, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer’s fans have wondered when he would write a memoir. Well, Wayne has finally done just that! However, he has written it in a way that only he can—with a remarkable take-home message for his longtime followers and new readers alike—and the result is an exciting new twist on the old format. Rather than a plain old memoir, Wayne has gathered together quantum-moment recollections.

A Summary of Dr Dyers Works
Reviewed: 12-23-21
If you are a fan of Wayne Dyer this book is a must. It summarizes all his previous books and how he ties them together. He wrote this shortly before his passing. And it almost sounds like he knew this would be his last book. Highly Recommend!

Better than I expected
Reviewed: 07-16-21
It started kind of slow in the first chapter. But the story had me listening and looking forward to getting back to it each time I stepped away.
Good for anyone starting a business OR starting a brewery.
Also, good for new businesses. Ones that have only been in business less than 10 years

Very Motivation Book
Reviewed: 12-20-20
As a businessman this book spoke to me. I face challenges every day. And always asking if the business I'm in is worth it. And if so at what cost. This book helps confirm we are so much more than we think we are. At the very least work through the little things, because they add up to be much bigger things. Great book to help you find your motivation! I highly recommend!!

Story
In his early 20s, Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent, rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago, the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin's family. The series quickly became "appointment" television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network - the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.
