" Simon's analysis of a simple Law of The Universe decodifies how we can bridge our behaviour backwards to the reasons we make those behavioural decisions. And finding those reasons can be a practical guide on how to stimulate desired decisions. Very useful! "

" I really enjoyed this book! I know there are some negative reviews but I listened to this while pulling weeds one day and it helped me draft a product ad for a dentist the next day. I recommend it! "

" Book was on the CSAF Reading List, so of course I had to give it a whirl. Definitely meant for any problem solving scenario and/or starting and maintaining a business. Over half the book is looking at Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and what they did with Apple, but there are many other vignettes throughout the book. "

" Watch Simon's TED Talk. If that inspires (and it will) - then this book will inspire you. As for me. I plan to read it again. "

" "Start with Why" by Simon Sinek is an analysis of how visionary leaders are able to cultivate success and others are not by simply communicating the concept of why they believe what they do to draw others who believe the same thing to their cause. I enjoyed the first 65 page or so, but then book seemed to start over and repeat the same thing (using the same examples). I would recommend this book for those who want to experience the concept in the author's TED talk in a different way, but I tend to agree with Loy Machedo's review. "

" 3.5 stars. Read because I loved his TED Talk on the subject. Interesting stuff. I especially liked the sections where he discussed the limbic brain and its capacity for decision making but not language. We make decisions based on feelings and then try to rationalize and articulate them after the fact. "

Roberta | 12/16/2013
