Most of the ideas in this book are not new to me, but I find them interesting and inspiring. One thing I like is the step-by-step structure and 'big questions' at the end of every chapter. While I know the Law of Attraction pretty well, this book makes the ideas accessible to everyone. Would recommend this one to people who're looking to improve oneself regardless of their wishes.

This was an interesting read that dives into the power of mindset and how we can shape our reality—especially through the lens of the Law of Attraction. Invincible leans into some deep concepts but keeps things grounded with actionable tips that you can actually apply to everyday life. It definitely gave me a new way to look at my own potential and how much of our success starts with our inner beliefs. A thought-provoking read if you’re into mindset work and self-empowerment. Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to listen to this book.

There were a few moments in the book where I felt myself becoming nervous despite the uplifting words. I think my prior training, or thought patterns were guiding me toward the notion that the book was going to suggest some version of a “mystical” or “enchanted” something I was going to need to buy into—-

THAT is NOT what this book is…


This book is much more substantive. The author is genuinely optimistic. His words are rooted in a well-disciplined, “Invincible” mindset, which was somewhat foreign to me initially. Admittedly, I took for granted that I needed to be sincerely ready (in advance) to open my mind in order to receive the good this book has to offer.

I personally determined I would finish the book when the author said “…the more I accomplished, the more I kept expecting to feel some sense of inner peace and ease…” among other things in the introduction.

Long story short, I am glad I stuck it out. A perspective shift can be an effective tool for managing so many of life’s challenges.

I’ve read quite a few self help books not just this year but in the past as well. It’s a habit I got into long ago. Sometimes it’s because I’m looking to improve a certain aspect of my life and other times I’m just curious if a book has any incites to offer. I never feel like I am wasting my time. Even if I hear the same information I’ve heard before, sometimes hearing it a new way or from a different point of view will make something click for me. And while I can’t say I found any ground break new revelations in Invincible, I still found it a sold book and was more than happy I took the time to listen to it. I will say the concepts sounds so familiar to me and it wasn’t until I saw another review where someone mentioned The Secret that it hit me that yes indeed Falco’s teaching, while not quite the same did indeed remind of that book, what I can remember of it anyway. There is a strong focus have a strong mind, that what you believe is very important. The idea of perception shaping reality is at play here. And I have to say in my own persona experiences over the years, I think this is, while not always, quite often true. There is definitely some solid advice here, especially in terms of how to rid yourself of that ever present negativity so many of us deal with. I will admit I listen to this one fairly quickly, in three sitting to be exact and I have no doubt had I taken a slower approach, taking time to reflect upon each chapter I might have gotten even more out of it. I’ll likely go back and do just that when I have more time. Howard Falco actually does the narration for the book and I zero complaints for his narrating ability. Best self help book I’ve ever read? No, but as I said I felt it was still well worth the time. I’d like to thank Brilliance Audio and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review an advanced copy of the audio version of Invincible.

“Where there is clarity there is focus and intuition.”

This was a fast, informative read that provides tangible advice and insight on how to gain full control of your mind. I have read self help books, where concepts are shared without actionable steps on how to improve. This is not the case in Invincible. Howard Falco reminds the reader of their power over their mindset, and how their control over their minds will yield to a desired outcome.

I recommend this book!

This book is for your book club, if you are looking for a short read that provides tangible ways that you can improve your mental control.

“Thoughts inspires our intention. Our intention determines exactly where we direct our attention and actions.”

Invincible: The Mindset of Infinite Potential and the Secret to Inevitable Success by Howard Falco
Audiobook read by the author
Publishing date: March 25, 2025

This book follows the path of the Law of Attraction, and if you like movies like the Secret, or a fan of Tony Robbins and Joe Dispensa and the like, you might enjoy this. I believe the author does sports coaching (there are a lot of sports reference, especially golf) which requires strong mentality at certain points, so if you an athlete who wants to find mental edge, this book is also helpful for you too.

Personally, I am familiar with the Law of Attraction and this book wasn't an eyeopener. If anything, it was a good reminder that such thing exists as one forgets living a busy life. So I appreciated that. The book was also very approachable and the audiobook read by the author was very easy to listen to. The book also discusses the three limiting beliefs (guilt, shame, and regret) but to me, the most limiting idea is fear. Then, later on in the book, the author indeed discusses fear - so I wasn't sure why he didn't say four limiting beliefs including fear instead.
I am sure this is a minor personal preference though, and overall book is compact and easy to listen to.

Thank you NetGalley and Brilliance Publishing for an advanced copy of this audiobook for review purposes. My opinions stated herein are my own.

I’m sure there’s an audience for this book, but for my taste, it leaned too heavily into spirituality. Phrases like “I found the magnetic force of universal wisdom” or “Do you believe that the universe is working with you?” felt completely bizarre to me.
I grew up believing that I could achieve anything I set my mind to, whether becoming a neurosurgeon or cycling in the Tour de France. I’ve always known that success depends purely on my own willpower, effort, and determination. The idea that I need to believe in the universe or some external energy to help me is just outrageous. Why should anything or anyone else get credit for my personal achievements? And on the other side, why should I blame some outside force if I fail?
I understand that some people may benefit from learning to believe in themselves by finding a more abstract sense of universal energy. But for readers who take a more materialistic, self-driven approach to success, this book probably won’t resonate. It’s certainly not a reimagining of Atomic Habits, and if that was the goal, it didn’t quite succeed.
