Jam packed with valuable insights and stories

I've always heard of Earl Nightingale but never actually read or heard any of his material. I'm so glad I did. this is going to be one of those audio books I'll keep coming back to. So much value!

Powerful words, common sense wisdom.

This is, by far, the most meaningful book I have ever listened to. There is something in here for everyone. In my opinion, it should be required listening or reading for every parent, teenager, worker & employer...in short, everyone!

I will be listening to it over and over again, these are truly words by which to design a life. No preaching, simply how to live the life you want.

In the words of Earl Nightingale: "we become what we think about most of the time."

Life Teachings

Such a wonderful book.

Get more out of life by learning from Earl Nightingale through his vast research on the fundamentals and principles that enable you to understand the essence of success.

You must get used to his voice, I imagined him as a wise uncle that's how I looked past his hoarse calming voice. Additionally he is teaching about you looking past the small things that make you judgmental over others, that simply would make you a hypocrite if his voice bother you.

Other than that, if you want to improve yourself and the people around you, this is where it's all at.

Enjoy!

Great. I wish I had found this sooner. I enjoyed the reflections and music. Definitely going to replay this.
