Dolor wrote: 17 Jun 2018, 09:17 I specifically like this in your review: "No one wants to buy what you’re selling if they don’t know or can’t see for what purpose it will serve them." This is self-explanatory and true.

The author gives value to those who made him change the way he sees things in life even the ordinary persons. Moreover, he shared the lessons he learned through this book.

Thanks for the detailed review.

I love how misleading the title of the book is and the quote from the book on the ''me, me, me' attitude makes it sounds like a really great read. Great review.
