First things first, I got this book cause I follow Cheyenne on insta and am a little nerd who liked the outside cover. I made it a goal this year to read less self-help books and more, ya know, other kinds of books, but I'm compulsive and get drunk and order things off Amazon. What can ya do?
As with all self-help books, I am #conflicted about my feelings. There were parts of this that had me going “duh, obviously, who needs this” and parts that had me going “oh damn it was me, i needed this.” I'll most likely slowly implement some of the tips given, but some are just not for me. (No procrastination??? That's literally when I get all of my ideas bruh) But maybe that's the point for me. Procrastination and non-working relaxation are a key part of my loop.
The most important thing, I think, is that I wish this little guy was longer. I think the author could really have expanded on some of the topics and gone deeper and I liked a lot of the anecdotes that were included. I'm interested in this dude's thought processes on some things. He mentioned a blog that I'll probably check out and see if he's written anything more detailed about some of the topics breached here.
I will say that I really like that this guy also works a day job. I get so frustrated reading books like this that are written by people who are so far removed from the place I'm currently at. I think that's what makes me wanna ask him questions about how he schedule's his days, works around his energy flows, etc. This guy gets ~me~ better than a looooooot of people who write self-help style books.
Ultimately, a good book. I'll probably sneak this into my rotation every few months or so (it's only about an hour to read if you don't do any of the activities while reading). I need some of these reminders now and then, even the ones that feel more obvious right now.
