Secrets of the Millionaire Mind - A garbage book about universe's energy

Never Split the Difference - too long never finished completely, didn't feel practical or anything beyond common sense

The Obstacle Is the Way - trash, not worth time, if you watch motivation videos then go ahead buy it.

Exactly What to Say - read the the table of contents and you get 90% of the value the book has to give

Indistractable - did you know if you could focus and work without motivation you could do great things..oh wow news of the century. Book has flawed premise and flawed solution. Saying control your internal triggers is a very round about way to say control your motivation. This book more of an academic book, on topic, that is under research.

How to Make Sh*t Happen: Make more money... - honestly liked the book, resonated with author's struggle .. but I don't recall getting much value. It was like watching a show that starts really strong and you have high hopes but just never delivers. I'd read the summary of it and not waste time reading the entire thing. i was kinda putt off by cringe over the top cursing to look unorthodox.

The Hard Thing About Hard Things - omg the self patting.. unless you're a ceo, of series A startup then maybe this book will have some value. HARD PASS.

Grit - here I'll save you time: people who keep at it on average win against talented people. There I saved you from 30 life stories of author and her daddy issues.

The case studies and even better textbooks that have case studies compiled into lessons are much better.
