Impressed and inspired

Kendal has inspired me in this book. I will read several times. I am happy to know the side of the natives' life...it's so different from what i grew up believing. Thank you for sharing your inspiring story of success!

Inspiring story!

The story was very moving. By the last few chapters, I felt motivated to get moving on things that I have procrastinated on.

I highly recommend this book!

Good book, excellent effort!

I'd not known of Mr. Netmaker. Picked this up on a sale. Have listen to many personal development books, so have lots to compare to. The author does a mostly excellent job of weaving in his own experiences into several tried and true personal development ideas and as a result offers a fresh perspective on many ideas that have been kicked around for years.

What makes this book worth listening to is to hear about the personal development tactics, mantras, ways of thinking from a First Nations man, who grew up on and off reserve. This is what makes the book interesting and unique and even powerful. It is wonderful to hear how Mr. Netmaker, who against the odds, continually took lemons and made lemonade with some help along the way.

The listen is not without its challenges. While Mr. Netmaker does a solid job reading, the editing of the book lacks polish and towards the end of the book I found the narrative a bit disjointed and one important story about the author's sister, though inspiring, seemed misplaced (perhaps she could write her own book?!). I suspect these issues are due to this being the author's first book. These issues aside, it is a short and excellent listen that I would recommend.

It's a solid first work and I'd like to see more content from Mr. Netmaker.

motivation

It is a good motivation story to try your hardest and associate with people that believe in you or want you to succeed.

Inspiring

I enjoyed listening to Kendall's life path of perseverance and focus. Overcoming the isolation of life on the reserve and the oppression that came with being First Nations, he walked a path to success for himself. Really loved the tone of the narrative, the authors voice, and the details of his personal experiences.
It is inspiring to hear how he overcame difficulties and stigma's and had the sense and conviction to make things work in his life.

A true blessing and inspiration!

As a Metis entrepreneur, Kendal Netmaker is truly a blessing to all entrepreneurs no matter their race, colour or experience.

Great read!

Inspirational book, very easy to listen to the author’s story resonated with me personally and there are some excellent tip for reaching your goals.

Unique Perspective

I enjoyed Kendal's unique perspective and insights. So much about success in life depends on attitude and our willingness to learn the keys to success as well as live by them. Kendal's story drives these points home. "Telling Your Story" was one I had not heard before. Great insight.
