Gotta admit, I misread the description when I requested this book. Somehow I managed to interpret the topic as being more about investing in your business and your own growth when things are uncertain. When it opened, and he started talking about stocks and trading, I was like, “Aw, shit. I’m gonna hate this, but I committed to writing a review.” BUT - a few chapters in, I was hooked. I really enjoyed this book!

A few of great takeaways:
- “Being correct too early, is indistinguishable from being wrong.” DAMN. I've been here and I don't like it.
- Based on the odds, everyone gets about one 'miracle' a month. (Hey - this guy is from STL and I am too, what are the chances?!? That's my miracle for June I guess, hahaha)
- Chill out. The more you try to control, the more you realize you have no control. It all comes out in the wash.

In addition to the knowledge the author brings to the table, his sense of humor was also on display in this book, in a way that made it entertaining and educational for someone who admittedly wasn't exactly the target market here.

The narration was done very well. At times, business books can be hard in audio form, but this one was a great use of that medium.

Thank you NetGalley and Greenleaf Book Group for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

Superb! I listened to this and couldn’t stop thinking and listening! Even got to a point where I was listening and constantly annotating! Excellent tips and business savvy ideas for career enhancement and career planning! If you are an entrepreneur or employee hoping for your next promotion. Or even if you feel as though you’re stuck in a dead end job! I was highly motivated and it’s a motivation that will stick with me for years to come!
