Listened to the audiobook, which I enjoyed, but if I read it I probably would have rolled my eyes more.

I especially enjoyed multitasking v multi-focusing (especially since I listen to audiobooks while commuting or tidying) and listening to the remarks about Ghandi and other notable figures.

At times it came off too much as a ‘motivational speaker' which isn't my favorite style, but I tried to focus on the main message which I have a hard time disagreeing with.

Might check out some of the other books he mentioned – but only if I can get them in audio format.
