Motivational
Review by PM
* Make your bed first thing in the morning, that’s your first win. “…and, if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made—that you made”
* If you cannot do little things right, you can’t do big things right.
* Never back down from the sharks/bullies. This could be people against you, your own fears, tough times,fight until you WIN.
* Don’t be afraid of the circus- learn how to do better from embarrassing moments.
* Do not give up when facing adversity, beyond the struggle there’s a rainbow.
* Overcome fear by action

a summary of life's biggest pains
The life of the author is filled with impressive events and the narrative shows the strength of character he needed to overcome each of them. i didn't feel motivated by the book though. each chapter described an even greater drama than the previous, up to the point where I could not listen anymore to the last couple of chapters. While you develop as a reader sympathy for the author, I wonder if it is meant as a autobiography or as a motivational book. In my opinion, the book does not motivate, it rather showcases the tragedy of life.
