"I brought this book up in a few conversation as "the motivational speaker I'm reading." Motivational speakers have their own rhetoric. They use our language and stories and systems, but always a little too much. They take english and supercharge specific words with extra meaning; they tell stories that, while true, are fantastical and actionable; they have four keystones, three steps, and seven solutions. Motivational speakers are their own breed. This book reads like a motivational speaker talks.
While the communication style is memorable (if only because of its archetype), this book leaves something to be desired. The book over-packages, over-sells, over-simplifies, and over-systematizes. I'd like to be more energetic, yes, but holding my head just so for the past few weeks hasn't really done it. Some of the steps Cooper talks about may be good habits, but combining them all would a) make me insane, and b) probably not revolutionize my life anyway.
I'm a fan of simplicity: under-sell and over-deliver."
"Meh. It had some good points, but was more of an overview of every other self-help book. It had a lot of tips, some of which were useful, but was not a very interesting read."
