An excellent read!
I love short books with your chock full of information and wisdom because they get straight to the point and you get to understand everything that was relayed. I'm really enjoyed this and because it's such a short read I will be reading it time and time again.

Self Ownership in a quick easy read! You can read it in an afternoon, I'll definitely revisit it time and time again when I need a reminder of the principles of this book

Highly recommended
I love this book! I recommend reading Who Moved The Cheese first, then reading this book. I read the book in about 6 hours. Both books show a different perspective on life, and a different approach to dealing with change.

Great Read!
Great read for those transitioning from valleys to peaks with the desire to stay in the peak longer. Easily understood reading for easily applied truths. This may save your company, marriage or dreams of a better life. The idea is to do something and not just think/complain about it. You will not arrive at your desired destination without a plan and much effort. Change your thinking!

New Perspective on Good and bad times
I believe all should read this book. It teaches a new perspective on how to handle good and bad times. I want to buy this for college graduates.

Excellent read!!!
I really loved reading this. I just got off work and instead of running home. I sat down to read this.I am more energized and hopeful of my future knowing that a "Peaks and Valleys" approach to all my situations in life may not solve them, but it will put me in a place to navigate them with the tenacity and fevour needed to stay on a peak longer.I pray that you get half of the enjoyment I received in reading this book.

game changing tool
This book is a wonderful parable written to teach the concept of how to get thru life without being exasperated. It’s a tool given to understand that life is truly a wonderful journey that should be travelled collecting memories and learnings with humility. It teaches us the value of each moment good or bad and how to accept the learning from each. A breezy read but leaves an indelible mark on your mind & soul.

Brilliant Parable on Life
I loved this brilliant and short parable on making good times last longer, tough times seem quicker and the power of a neutral mindset by making reality your friend. I loved the pragmatic wisdom offered with sheer lucidity and the parable that keeps readers hooked until the end. Very inspiring and uplifting for a powerful personal reflection. A fantastic read for anyone reflecting on questions about work and life.

A guide to a happy life
It was a great book about how to deal with the good and bad times in life. Life is full of ups and downs .How we deal with them determines our success and failures,and determines the quality of life.This book is so simple andcan be read in an hour or so,but is such a profound and uplifting one.

A refreshing read with straightforward takeaways
I find that while reading most business books, I will take some of the lessons taught in the book, those from which I find inspiration, and apply them to my work. Unfortunately, most of the time the lessons don't have a great lasting impression and after a few weeks I am influenced by a different business book, or I find the changes difficult to incorporate with one particular aspect of my work and they inevitably get dropped entirely.The difference with this book is that there are far fewer prescriptive lessons, you don't get told how to handle your email workload, or what to do about a specific character type at the office; but instead read a pleasant story about simple virtues, the lessons of which are more readily adaptable to anybody's working or home life. Like Who Moved My Cheese, it's a quick, easy read with lessons which are relatively simple to apply to your work.
