I checked this audio book out from the library thinking that it would be some standard, mushy self help. I just wanted something to inspire me to make changes in my routine. I was so pleasantly surprised that it was much more than that! The book goes into so many interesting case studies and is very well researched, with lots of evidence to back up all of the information provided. Listening to it felt like listening to that one really interesting episode of a podcast that you want to tell someone about later, but for hours and hours. It had both items for personal reflection, as well as stories that put the behaviors of our society in perspective. Plus the corporate section has some very interesting discussions of data analysis, which I found fascinating. Beyond just being interesting, it did provide me with the inspiration I was looking for - and even better, the context in which to think of my habits as I try to adjust them. The book was interesting and informative, and I’m sure everyone would be able to relate to at least some of the stories told in it.
