Great book

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2014

I actually liked this book better than it's predecessor "Choose Yourself", which I also read recently. This book starts out very strong, it's a collection of short stories. Caught my interest right away, I wound up reading it in two sittings. Very close to a five star rating, but the stories closer to the end didn't seem quite as interesting as they were to start the book. I love his writing style, very unique, very intelligent... Many times I paused to think about subject matter he brings up, how so much of it applies to everyone yet seldom is brought out in the open or talked about. I think James Altucher would be my favorite author to have lunch with. Read this book, it's awesome :)

You can eat the dessert first.

I'd been waiting to finish reading Choose Yourself first to fully enjoy this one (in case you're wondering, it's not War and Peace. I read it in less than a weekend, twice.) I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm conditioned to eat the meal first so I can be allowed to eat the dessert.
I heard James say that this is his best book. And it is. It's fun to read, exciting, thrilling, and it's good for you. Like one of those organic desserts that on top of being yummy, have nutritional value. Maybe it's a good idea to skip the meal sometimes.

Brilliantly written as all of James Altuchers writings are. His is one of a few blogs that I read consistently because of his insight, entertainment and truth. I love his work, find it inspirational on so many levels. This book follows that tradition and is well worth the read!

A vital adjunct to 'Choose Yourself'

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 11, 2015

Verified Purchase

Great background for the 'Choose Yourself' book. Some of the stories are poignant, some hilarious, and some are just a little disturbing.Taken individually, they add depth to James' already excellent book, taken as a whole, you get a picture of a someone who has found a way in life that works for him (and he makes it clear in 'Choose Yourself' that if he falls off the wagon with the 'Daily Practice' that things go awry).

An excellent book - well worth your time to read.

fantastic book

I loved the whole book and I am a huge fan of James, however I hate to admit that I actually cried reading the chapter about drug addiction. It is a book that will make you laugh and it will make you 'uncomfortable' at times. That's the beauty of it. Thanks James for sharing your stories and please don't stop doing it!

Stories are moreish, funny, twisty, and intriguing. Love his authenticity and creative spark. Adore his ability to plonk in a lesson without being preachy.

Another great read (I've read Choose Yourself and loved it). James' honesty, wisdom, and sharp sense of humor make this a great read and well worth the time. I truly enjoy his style and his 'voice' and look forward to reading another one of his books.
