Secondarily, it’s also ploddingly slow - like he has a few bullet points which he’s desperately trying to tease out into many hours of content.
If you want something that can actually help I’d say read/listen to “Atomic Habits” instead.
There is a reason this is free on Audible!!!
Lacking incite, patronising & not very entertaining

For example, there is advice to “just let things go.” Don’t try to change anything or anyone. A great life lesson - and a habit for greatness - that we should all strive to follow (the book says)
Later on we are told to stand up for inequality in all its ugliness, whether based on race, gender or gender identity. We are told that we should consider going on demonstrations and marches. To passively stand by and do nothing makes us culpable so we should practice the habit of standing up to injustice - this is a habit for greatness
Try going on a march chanting and carrying a banner and also at the same time just letting it go and not trying to change anyone or anything
Maybe I feel this was a somewhat pointless book because I am 60 and have long since worked through the many facets of life and am at peace with what I stand for etc
Maybe worth a listen to make you think, and maybe my younger self might have found some useful life lessons, but if I had my time again I would not bother spending a few hours listening to this. Sorry “Dr Happy”
Also - my goodness, if you want a good chuckle (maybe a fitting purpose for this book by Dr Happy), listen to the totally cringeworthy “reviews” in all their glorious accents. I don’t doubt that these are genuine written reviews from his students but the awful male French accent was very funny. The terrible Indian accent from a woman who I think was Welsh was also funny.
I would like to be more positive about this but…
