Beautiful and painful
Évalué le: 2020-12-21
Highly recommend this series. I am not an indigenous person - I want to learn more about these matters as a Canadian. It is our responsibility. Tanya tells a beautiful yet difficult heart wrenching set of stories which should be required listening / reading for all Canadians.

Histoire
The best-selling author of Truman and John Adams, David McCullough has written profiles of exceptional men and women past and present who have not only shaped the course of history or changed how we see the world but whose stories express much that is timeless about the human condition. Here are Alexander von Humboldt, whose epic explorations of South America surpassed the Lewis and Clark expedition; Harriet Beecher Stowe, "the little woman who made the big war”....

David’s writing is smooth as silk. Descriptive, plain spoken, and enjoyable to listen to. The performance was very well done.

Histoire
On January 14, 2015, Tommy Caldwell, along with his partner, Kevin Jorgeson, summited what is widely regarded as the hardest climb in history - Yosemite’s nearly vertical 3,000-foot Dawn Wall, after 19 days on the route. This engrossing memoir chronicles the journey of a boy with a fanatical mountain-guide father who was determined to instill toughness in his son to a teen whose obsessive nature drove him to the top of the sport-climbing circuit.

Definitely for climbers
Évalué le: 2019-04-27
If you are a climber, you will get more from this story. If not (I am not), the story becomes tedious and repetitious. I’m not sure what I was expecting. Perhaps a story that applied more to non climbers. His story of the two woman in his life also is rather predictable.

Histoire
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Great Message.
Évalué le: 2019-01-06
The message Mr. Goggins elaborates on is tremendous. It gives you much to think about and you can easily apply these learnings to your life. Yes, some of it is common sense, but hearing David’s examples really brings the story to life.
I would have liked to understand how his relationship with his own child was impacted by his amazing exploits and life given the difficult childhood he had. That’s a real part of the overall equation as well.
If there was one minor suggestion I could make, the cussing does get a bit tedious at times and the gratuitous way he describes female body parts may offend some listeners (I was not). Just a bit repetitious.
All in all, a great message and that’s the point!

Nothing Really New Here
Évalué le: 2018-11-05
There's not much new here. Many of these 'self help' books are filled with common sense advice. This is no different. Really now .... change your Mindset to direct and change results; Be outward focused; Think about what the customer wants; Listen to what the customer wants. I kept waiting for new insights. There really weren't any. Any book written by an 'Institute' is a brochure for that Institute. This is what this book was about as far as I can see.

Fascinating
Évalué le: 2018-11-04
An incredible story of redemption and coming back from the odds. If JJ can get through what he did, anyone can escape from anything. Joseph comes across as a real, no holds barred bad ass ... but an extremely compassionate and empathetic person. His performance of the book was awesome. He didn’t just read it, it was like a one man play. Well worth the time to listen to this!
