Highlights

Quality

Packaging/appearance

Every chapter is packed with gems that the reader immediately put into practice.

Competitiveness

He uses comparisons of the primal lizard gut feel brain versus where we want to go and who we want to be.

I don't have much free time, but michael is worth anyone's time.
