Worth listening to—good but not great restatement of Dr. Waitley’s work

There are many good ideas in this audiobook. It looked like most of them were taken from Denis Waitley’s Psychology of Winning and Seeds of Greatness programs. Exact phrases from those works were restated in The Joy of Working by each of the three narrators. I found that a bit off-putting; since I expected a wealth of original insights from both authors. The production is dated, with music, diction, and pronoun use from the 80’s. The ideas presented are worth overlooking the 80’s vibe. I heard at least three I can apply right now.
If you want to hear valuable insights from Dr. Waitley restated in a slightly different way—The Joy of Working is worth listening to. If you are considering this program versus either The Psychology of Winning (how to achieve positive dreams) or Seeds of Greatness (how to grow a rock-solid character) then I would buy one of his flagship works instead The Joy of Working.
