## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading and remembering
*by P***P on 4 November 2015*

The book is short and concise.It does not go into long winded stories but rather gives short examplesstraight to the point.It starts off with a simple yet powerful idea that we must build upon ourstrength. But in order to understand where our strength lies we must firstunderstand how we operate.Key questions to ask ourselves on how we operate are:-How do we learn?-What are our values?-What are the best environments we efficiently perform at?-and of course knowing where we think we might belong?To achieve this the author describes an exercise called the feedback loopwhere we predict how far we will go and assess how wellwe fit this prediction to expose our weaknesses and strength.Once we have discovered our strength we must double down on itand minimize the time to improve our weaknesses. It is better togo from good to excellent instead of incompetent to mediocre.Finally the author mentions that as we become excellent in our jobwe might not have any challenges and this can make life lessexciting, so we can try seeking for a different field to master oncewe are older.Absolutely loved the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ sober, thought provoking and practical
*by M***L on 29 March 2015*

This book is quite brief and more focused on one philosophical point than air how to or step by step book. However, I personally find the Sober yet direct tone of this book very refreshing in the world of business books that are overhyped.In a way the very absence of a 10 step plan to success and a realistic view of big business life is actually its strength.When it comes from an author who has been a management consultant for many decades and has had a business like that spanned the great depression right into the 70s and 80s, it is worth reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Managing Oneself reviewed by Tevin Gongo
*by T***O on 5 December 2019*

Really good read. I might be biased as I know that Peter Ducker is a reference when it comes to Business matters but I really recommend this book. The book give you a few interesting questions to ask yourself to ensure you are functioning at your best. It is a short read so even if you have a busy life, those 30 minutes should be a good investment of your time .
