Worthwhile
This is not the most revolutionary book of all time. It didn't blow my mind and change my outlook on the world. But it provided some great reminders in simple stories that I can apply to my life. Some things were cringe and broad statements that were generalizations but there were also pieces of information that I found valuable. It was worth the 2.5 hours and one credit.

Bit of a cheesy story but can appreciate the numerous life lessons and personal development paths and shortfalls valid for most people

Great book!
So many great lessons in this book. I want to purchase the actual book and use it as a daily devotional type book. At times , I had to pause to allow the lessons to sink into my soul. Definitely Recommend!
