Maxwell did a great job of reading this audio book. As an experienced author and speaker, he mixes the information with good delivery by engaging the reader through his spoken word. There is something about listening to an author speak to you. You just want to trust them.

This is the third book in the Laws series. This book provides steps to change. He uses power points to help the reader follow his instruction. He gives numerous anecdotes to bring a commonality to readers and make the material clear to everyone, no matter what your background.

His message is clear. He wants you to value yourself and therefore value others by serving. Do the right thing. Being true to yourself builds character and confidence. To grow involves tension between where you are and where you want to be. If you lose that, you cannot grow. Positive habits, actions, and decisions builds self-esteem. Self-talk is important. Praise yourself for your small victories.

This is an inspiring and encouraging book that can change your thinking from guilt and apathy to what "could be". His strategy is to select the one word that describes you to find out what really makes you tick. Based on his advice to pause and reflect, my reflection is, this book is really moving. Great audio book to listen to when you are alone in the car during your commute. It gives YOU time to pause for reflection.
