The first half of this book resonated with me greatly - probably one of the best “get it done” / motivation books. However, the second half fell flat. Ramblings about god, angels, and muses just don't click for me. A couple of great chapters litter the second half though, namely the discussions around “territory”. If you were the last person on Earth, what would you still do?
Author sets up the problem pretty well.
I felt like it could have been more concrete, some how.
Go and get stuff done.
A few good nuggets, but gets too much into nonsense about angels and gods starting about halfway in that it becomes too hard to take seriously.
