Unfinished Business: One Man's Extraordinary Year of Trying to Do the Right Things Audiobook

" As I have said with previous books, and as others have similarly commented, I liked the concept of this book more than I liked the story. The story wasn't bad, but it also wasn't riveting. What I appreciated was the thought-provoking aspect that made me stop and think about what unfinished business I have in my life. What things could I do differently to improve my life? How have I not lived life to this point and how can I change it? Granted, I'm not as financially stable as this guy apparently was to be flying all over the world visiting people for a year while he is between jobs. This, by default, means my "unfinished business" would be addressed differently, but it certainly was inspiring to be able to see the positive outcomes of his decisions to go back and address some of these situations that he may have previously decided needed to be ignored or put away and not revisited. "

" After being fired from his job, workaholic Kravitz takes a year to address ten issues with people from his past that have been on his mind through the years. A good lesson in valuing the time and people in your life and showing what good can come from following through with things, no matter how long they have been on hold. "

" Lots of things to think about. Over simplified the idea of energy, but very on target with connectedness, relationships and priorities. "

" Won this book. I enjoyed it because it makes you think about your own life and how you should not put work first in your life. Religion, family and friends is what should be your priorities in life. "

" The writing in this book is just meh, but the story is terrific and so, so honest. I enjoyed reading about how Kravitz tied up so many loose ends, and it taught me an important lesson: it's never too late to reach out, make amends or do what you always said you would but never got around to. "

" Maybe it's the timing, but this is one of the best books I've read in years. I'll probably keep and reread a few years down the road. "

" I will finish my unfinished business ... So i can enjoy my life :)) "

" With a book like this it needs to sell on the vulnerability and Kravitz supplies that but not enough to make this book stand out. You'd be more driven to tears by one of Dr. Phil's "Dr. Phil Family" episodes. "

" A beautiful, beautiful book, nourishing and uplifting. I needed the reminder that one doesn't need to take a year off or travel to an exotic destination to change the self or the world, that a life can be made more fulfilling every day with a simple smile, email, or an attitude of compassion. "

" Great idea . . . but the book fell flat. "

" I won this book on here. I thought it was a pretty good book. Its amazing how he took a year off to do his unfinished business. Makes me want to be a better person :) "

" A thought-provoking book written by a magazine editor from Cleveland who is laid off and then reconnects with family, friends and others after he is laid off. "

" This is an uplifting and inspiring book. Kravitz lost his job and decided he had some loose ends to tie up before searching for a new job. It caused him to look at his life and adjust his priorities, something we all should do. Great book! "

" Very good book. True story of a man tying up loose ends, going back and taking care of several things that had been nagging him for years. "

" I will finish my unfinished business ... So i can enjoy my life :)) "

" This book was an easy, enjoyable read. The author had some interesting stories to tell and it was inspiring to see how he was able to go back and did the right thing in several unfinished portions of his life. "

" baca buku ini jadi ingat diri sendiri, utang2 masa lalu apa yang belum aku lunasi? "

" Great read!!! Loved the thought that it is possible to address the regrets of midlife and let go of burdens. "

" It was a good idea and he had interesting encounters with his old friends. But in the end I didn't care ... it was *his* unfinished business ... not mine. "

" This was a very interesting, at times, inspirational look at one man's journey to do the right thing. It certainly was thought provoking and well worth reading. Note: I received this book through Goodreads.com. "

" Interesting concept. Makes one think about the past and any unfinished business there might be. All of the author's encounters with the past were such a positive happening. A good, enjoyable read. "
