Set Yourself Up for an Amazing Life - on the Skinny Branches :)
597333
My experience with Michael Strasner has been amazing - his live workshop had a huge, positive and long lasting impact on my life. I spent several long and powerful days with him to gain the insight and knowledge he has now distilled into this book - Living on the Skinny Branches - this guy is the real deal, he makes a difference and uncovers the ability in others to do the same. If you were to read one book RIGHT NOW to set yourself up for an incredible life, this is the book to read. I want my 2016 to be bigger, better and even more fulfilling than my 2015 - this book, and this man are part of that plan.

Do yourself and everyone close to you a favour. Buy this, read it carefully, refer to it often and take it to heart because it's from there that you will start to make improvements to become all that you can be. One more thing, find what is negative in your life and get rid of it. Thanks for writing this Jeff.

There are lots of motivational books but this one stands out because it touches you where you live. I looked forward to every chapter!  We all have in us some hidden desire to be all that we can be, but somehow  during the journey, life gets in the way.  Ken's personal stories and down to earth tips make you feel like you can do better. This book is about life the way it's meant to be lived! If you are ready to get off the couch and live, then this is definitely a good place to start.  I laughed, cried, and did some soul searching.  You'll never be the same. . . I'm not!

There are those who plant trees and those who sit under them! This book will either give you shade or help you plant that tree for your legacy! Super impressed with the relentless real life pursuit of the best way forward. This book isn't about theory, it's about real life testing, tweaking and tracking done with an insatiable desire to crack the code in building and scaling a predictable pipeline for your real estate business!

To become the best version of ourselves, we first have to change our mindset and beliefs, and this book pours that into you! It's a quick read, too, so it is never redundant. It gives you tangible steps to take to max out to start chasing the butterflies and becoming the person you were born to be!

This is the greatest idea ever! See, I'm a kid with low self-esteem. I get bullied all the time and I'm afraid to talk to girls. There's really been no cure for problems like these, until now!

With Live Butterfly Garden, I can snag innocent butterflies from their comfortable habitat and force them to live a miserable life in a little confined cage net thing.

My, how the tables have turned! Now I'm the one bossing others around! Fly my underlings, fly! Huh, you're sleeping?! Lets see how sleepy you are when I vigorously shake your cage!

It's really empowering bossing around these butterflies. Although this doesn't change my school situation in the slightest, I'm the master of my own domain come the weekend!

I thought this book provided a great way to escape this world for the day, only put it down for the necessities:)  I also enjoyed having to look up the mythological and cultural references, a trait shared with a character or two, I too am a bit behind in today's fashions and mores.
Thank you Allison for a delightful read; I look forward to "Sacrifice"!

I read this for my book club and thoroughly enjoyed it. I looked forward to reading a chapter (a session) and working on the exercise at the end of each session, every morning. That daily dosage of inspiration gave a jumpstart to my days. It felt like I was attending a workshop and not just reading a book. I could almost hear the author, Danielle, addressing me in her friendly, conversational style. I never felt bored. Instead, I found myself nodding along, highlighting most of what I read and adding my own thoughts.

She encourages her readers to be true to themselves. "Study yourself", "Find your inner voice" and "Do a little more of what you really want to be doing everyday, and a little less of what you don't want to do, until eventually, your reality is brimming with the real ideal" are some of her mantras. Her thoughts on time management, money management, giving felt so liberating to me, like like I'd been doing what didn't come naturally to me, until now

Answering the questionnaires at the end of each session helped me learn so much about myself. Doing the "Ideal Day" exercise made me realize that I was already almost-living my ideal life; The questions at the end of money management chapter showed me that my needs are pretty simple and that I had enough money to spend on things that truly matter to me- Education and Travel.

I highly recommend this book to anybody who "didn't sign up for good enough in this lifetime", as the author says, :You signed up for awesome". I know I did.

This book has a realistic and very do-able plan for happiness and also to chart what makes you unhappy. Before you can improve your life, it always is sensible to evaluate your state of being and this title delivers on that by giving you a sensible means of measuring the state of your life and giving concrete suggestions on how to improve your life using seven basic steps. I am following the plan but it is hard to stick with on occasion and you really need to stick with it on a regular basis. I recommend making one or two days a week at a set time to be that at which you return to the book and your own plan. Worth getting if you are *serious* about making the time to commit to yourself and to improve the experience of others around you ;>)

I decided to buy this book after listening to Timothy Ferriss being interviewed on Robb Wolf's The Paleo Solution podcast. I read it in 2 days, well the bits I was interested in anyways.

This book is meant to be read like a 'Choose your own adventure' story where you pick and choose amongst the topics that have some relevance for you.

As a woman trying to lose a few pounds and gain some muscle tone, the Subtracting Fat and Adding Muscle chapters were required reading.

As a woman with a partner, the Improving Sex section was required reading for him (btw, that stuff works!!!). That chapter alone led to the most sheet-clutching, roof-raising, ear-splitting 15 minutes of my life!

Who doesn't need to sleep better? However the idea of sleeping less without feeling tired really appeals to me. Want more hours in the day? Here's how to get them!

I love to swim, but I suck at freestyle. The From Swimming to Swinging chapter has easy to follow instructions to make your swimming style effortless.

Finally, on having a healthy and productive old age, not just living longer, there's On Longer and Better Life. I had already read about and practiced Intermittant Fasting, but Protein Cycling is new to me and may be worth a try.

Overall, the book is very well written, entertaining and informative. I love the approach of getting the best results in the minimum amount of time, we all have very busy lives and if we could devote 10 hours a week to working out, no doubt we'd look amazing, but what if you only have 90 minutes a week? Can you get the same results? Tim Ferriss says yes and I for one and willing to give his ideas 90 days to see if he's right.

profound advice to embrace the painful inner silence especially when among other people who are busy with happiness, you find peace and joy with your inner solitude, cherishing life in its most simplest humblest forms and making it more worthy than the biggest billionaires! considering this writer was an accomplished person and he says he is less then the student who has not done anything, it's a wake-up call to stop looking outward and start rejoicing with what you are, love yourself and treat others with love bc they are not you. never will be able to be so lucky as you. cannot really explain why this book was so touching to me, bc i am not a youth nor a middle age but a grown mature person who has lived most of his life, but still this book wakes me up to enjoy whatever life i have still to live!
