Good content, not enough practical examples. Trying too hard to sell their monthly subscription app.

Easy to grasp and apply the tips from the book to my life. As an audiobook, it was perfect to listen to on my long ride home from work.

Sales pitch for their app

I thought the concept was interesting but the book basically boiled down to most of the later chapters ending with a sales pitch to download their subscription app. I went to actually download it and decided not to because of the app ratings. Overall, it’s worth listening to the middle of the book - speed 1.2 or 1.5 - maybe 2x if you are quick.

Its practicality it was very straight forward & easy to understand/apply.

The simple explination reminded me of a componente in brains; the (RAS) which is a network of neurons that helps the brain filter out stimuli via pattern recognition by filtering out "unnecessary" information and highlighting "relevant" cues. The auxiliary help outside of the audio book itself was very much appreciated and understated.
