I really like that this book gave a different perspective from your typical financial advice. I think the thing I realized for myself is that I was trying to get money to feed into my ego. Now I realize that I really have to make a choice because I can’t make financially wise decisions while at the same time try to make wise decisions for my long term future.

The thing that totally endeared me to this book is Robert’s connection to the whispers of God and his heart to seek Him in every aspect of his life. No matter how capable or smart you think you are, I think if you don’t lean on the Lord while walking out of your life, you will have an unbalanced and unsuccessful life. The refreshing thing about this book is that while it is a look into the success of a man, it is bathed in the vital necessity the author found in depending on the Lord. From the storyline, Robert is a real man with a real God, not a religious pretension. Thank you for the wisdom and nuggets for success.

Great read!

This audiobook is a heartfelt mixture of this man's story of his business ventures, struggles and successes and his spiritual belief and philosophy. He tells the story of how he started several businesses and how opportunities can seem great and yet challenges arise in every endeavour. It's important to keep yourself true to yourself in following what you believe to be right and stay in your integrity as this man does. Maybe this audio could have delivered a little more value in making business decisions and lessons to succeed, but it's a nice mix of personal insight and delivered well.

A great mixture of business and spiritual learning

"Business Made Simple: How Your Biggest Challenges Hold the Key to Financial Intelligence" by Robert M. Donovan flips the script on traditional business guides, arguing that the very struggles entrepreneurs face are the stepping stones to financial intelligence. Targeting both aspiring and seasoned business owners, the book acknowledges the overwhelming nature of the modern market while assuring readers that fundamental principles still hold true. Donovan, leveraging his 25+ years of experience, goes beyond just strategies, offering a unique blend of practical advice and Biblical wisdom. The book delves into overcoming common roadblocks like limited finances, saturated markets, and self-doubt, providing real-world case studies to illustrate strategic planning and adaptation. It then ventures into a fascinating exploration of how core Biblical values like transparency, integrity, and humility translate perfectly into sound business decisions, fostering a culture of excellence. But "Business Made Simple" isn't just about financial success; it emphasizes the importance of empowering leadership, advocating for leading with empathy and fostering a work environment built on creativity, innovation, and mutual respect. The book broadens its reach beyond just business owners, beckoning anyone seeking positive change in their life to embrace the struggles within its pages. Whether you're an entrepreneur looking to chart a new course, someone seeking a strategic refresh, or simply yearning for inspiration, "Business Made Simple" promises a thought-provoking journey that unveils the uncommon path to success through embracing the very challenges that hold us back.

I don't think I've ever heard an audiobook that took scripture and applied it to modern struggles quite like this. There were a lot of moments where I paused the book to think; this is a compliment. Really engaging. Excellent narrator. I enjoyed it.
