great content, narration is so so
Stephen Covey is a stalwart of the self-help world so this is a book full of good old-fashioned advice, no gimmicks. Don't let the narration cat the very start put you off as is not robot-esq for long. As it's a short read is recommend it to anyone interested in self-help. It was also included in the subscription so was effectively free

Cheated
I literally had to re-listen to it as it finished and I thought I’d missed a load of chapters. Just using Stephen Covey’s name without adding anything new

Ok time pass listening
It’s an easy listening of a series of quotes basically arranged around the concept of learning from nature. It’s ok.

This recording should be taken off line
This recording is the worst I have ever heard. It sounds like an automated voice that confuses meaning with the strange intonation, erratic emphasis and stop start reading.

A great listen and therapeutic to the soul!
I found this book to be very inspiring and I resonated with most of the content, it was like an eye opening moment in most of the chapters. I really enjoyed this bite sized book, it's not too long which I liked as some books take days to finish whereas this book it was done in one go so its all fresh in your head.

okay
I found it very nice to listen to but there's no actual instructions in it to live by. only quotes and some Gogd advice. worth the 50 minutes though

Great brief to revisit old lessons in a new context.
I’ve read 7 habits and other similar books. Recent realization led me to look for practical guides to remind me and Renew those learnings in me. I listened to this once and it is a great tool for that purpose. A new concept takes some reputation but reminders of something you already knew but perhaps need to learn again or learn something new in what you thought you knew without long repetitions. Perfect.

Short but sweet
this was a lot of great information compacted into a small book. That makes it that much easier to listen to over and over again.

Just a Sumary
I read many book from Dr. Covey. If you read there is no reason to listen this one. It's just a collection of his most famous quotes.

For all the people that have “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”
Worth an hour of your time. It reminds you why you pay for Audible. To have these titles that are short but contain great value.
