This is a good book to dip in and out of for daily inspiration. A lot of the content though when listened to on an audio book, is repeated quite a lot, and the list format is impossible to follow, just random numbers being called in the end.

A lot of repetition and an unusual number of numerical lists. This is not a book of essays as much as book of spiritual, self actualizing quotes. Some of these quotes or self affirmations are good. Some are trite but remain in the minority.

Nice listen. Sort of a “ smooth jazz” of a book. Wonderful narration though.

The point is that this is a series of lists, rather than real essays. Which is to say points aren't argued or linked together, but rather fired out as a series of truisms. And for a book with a highly repetitive style, it is way too long.

The narrator's voice is calm and more understandable message, but the book was complicated to understand. Too many numerical numbers.

Bravo! Brianna does it again !

This has all the answers you're looking for.

It's your run of the mill self help book. Sprinkles of stoic, mystic, and clicheish quotes. The book could be condensed to 50 quotes since much of it redundant.

Great Essays. I loved them.

This is a great book, its simple yet effective. If you're looking for a reminder of good habits and a way to relax and sit back, this book is for you.

From almost the first essay the content was useless. It reads like a men’s health or cosmo article. Not to detract from these magazines but I expected a little more depth. Essays include “10 things that socially intelligent people do” or “10 things emotionally intelligent people don’t do”.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Does it feel like your life is too busy, your days are too short, and you're feeling overworked, overstressed, and overtired?

Women of all ages are suffering from an epidemic of fatigue and burnout. But exhaustion doesn’t have to be your new normal.

Forget hustle harder. Forget a mandatory 5 a.m. wake-up. Forget outlining your life plan in six-month, one-year, and five-year spans.

In her first book, Jenna Kutcher—entrepreneur, photographer, influencer, teacher, mom, and host of the wildly popular Goal Digger podcast—shares her philosophy on how to live a life that exists outside the tired cliché of “having it all.”

This staggering amount of information - unprecedented in history - can tell us a great deal about who we are - the fears, desires, and behaviors that drive us, and the conscious and unconscious decisions we make. From the profound to the mundane, we can gain astonishing knowledge about the human psyche that less than 20 years ago seemed unfathomable.

A lot of great lessons

I loved the overarching messaging of this book. Most thoughts and concepts were new to me, even if I've thought of them before but could never put them into words. I found the audiobook a hard format to follow along with since the whole book is structured as numbered points rather than a linear storytelling - if I paused the audiobook and returned to the same chapter later, I often forgot what the narrator was talking about. At times I had to stop listening because the narration got on my nerves; the enunciation and inflictions were so strange.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The Mountain Is You

• Transforming Self-Sabotage into Self-Mastery
• Narrated by: Stacey Glemboski
• Length: 5 hrs and 44 mins
• Overall 4.5 out of 5 stars 383
• Performance 4.5 out of 5 stars 324
• Story 4.5 out of 5 stars 322

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Our brains do their best to help us out, but every so often they can be real assholes - having meltdowns, getting addicted to things, or shutting down completely at the worst possible moments. Your brain knows it's not good to do these things, but it can't help it sometimes - especially if it's obsessing about trauma it can't overcome. That's where this life-changing book comes in. With humor, patience, science, and lots of good-ole swearing, Dr. Faith explains what's going on in your skull, and talks you through the process of retraining your brain to respond appropriately....

College student Joe Talbert has the modest goal of completing a writing assignment for an English class. His task is to interview a stranger and write a brief biography of the person. With deadlines looming, Joe heads to a nearby nursing home to find a willing subject. There he meets Carl Iverson, and soon nothing in Joe's life is ever the same. Carl is a dying Vietnam veteran-and a convicted murderer. With only a few months to live, he has been medically paroled to a nursing home after spending thirty years in prison for the crimes of rape and murder.

But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way.

He calls them atomic habits.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money , award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Performance let me down

I like the book but the narrator sounds a bit robotic and puts me to sleep when I'm driving and listening. I wish the author actually performed it because of the nature of the text. Also it's less suited to an audio book and more written due to the fact that the 'essays' are more like lists. I like the content and they encourage action but you can get lost in the numbers and what that specific one is about especially in the audio form.

highly recommend

absolute must read/ listened. loved it and I am a big on the topic of personal growth book

Pretty decent for a beginner to self help

A great introduction to therapy for beginners, the book provides practical insights. However, for avid self-help readers, the ideas may feel familiar and less groundbreaking. Ideal for those new to the self-improvement journey.

• Performance 4 out of 5 stars

You could listen again and again

So many thought provoking ideas on how to live your life fully, honestly and happily

• Overall 4 out of 5 stars

too many numbers

I love the content of the book and the ideas, but the numbering got extremely repetitive and annoying at times. I wish the book was an actual 101 'Essays' and not 101 chapters with 101 bullet points of ideas, even though they were valid. I still would recommend it though to someone new to the field of self development and self understanding.

I WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS AGAIN!!

I want and need to listen to this again and again, to continue to help reset my traumatised mindset from childhood. Abby's soft, gentle and meditative voice has a healing component to it and with the content, it certainly makes it an incredible therapeutic listening experience. If you need to become a better soul, person, mother, sister, friend, colleague and/or friend then this is a must read/listen book for you.

Perfect book for walking...

If you don't find something in this book that makes you question your life in some way... your most likely dead already! :)
