Tough to Finish Ironically
I liked a lot of the tactics in the book, however the narrator was simply painful to listen to. It sounded almost like a computer reading it back to me.

There's a lot of good sense in this book
This is a short book of just under 3 hours - but it doesn't carry any dead weight. The book is very much focused on providing ideas and suggestions and practical tips for finishing what you start. If you pulled all of the ideas out, they'd probably amount to about 30 practical suggestions. I've implemented a couple of them. I've felt that my laziness/inertia is intractable - but in fact it's not. It's just a series of poor habits and ignorance about how I work, and what works for me. This book goes a long way to helping you get to know yourself, and identifying what (from the selection offered) can move you forward in achieving your goals and objectives. I listened to the book 3 times, and each time I heard something new.

Productivity 101
Meh, more of a primer course for people with poorly developed organisational skills or understanding of what it takes to be productive.
If you're just starting out on a quest to find out why you struggle to get anywhere, this is a good place to start. If you want a deep dive, this is not the answer.

Exactly what I needed after wasted hours and effort trying to learn how to manifest
This is a roadmap for success and happiness and if I only use half of it I will still have profited greatly and I feel once again in control. Thank you for writing this,

Great book/audible.
Covers essential aspects: how people fail and succeed. How people can recovery after initial
failures if they know about themselves and their projects better, etc.
