Review of Instaread Summary of "Living Forward A Proven Plan to Stop Drifting and Get the Life You Want" by Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy




Review of

Instaread Summary of Living Forward A Proven Plan to Stop Drifting and Get the Life You Want by Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy

Two out of five stars

 This book and summary combination failed to generate even a slight rise in my interest meter. Both revolve around the creation of a “. . . concrete Life Plan to prevent drifting from day to day and instead live a proactive life of success without regrets.” In other words, all will be better or even well if you write a plan for your life and stick to it. My first mental reaction was to recall the famous quote, “Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
 There is nothing in the book or the summary that has not been said and restated in countless books, pamphlets, motivational meetings and television shows. It is an example of the concept that no area does more rehashing and recycling of material than the self-help industry. This is one of the primary reasons that self-help books have one of the shortest shelf lives of interest of any genre. I am sure the book, like the summary, is dull and predictable. 

This book was made available for free for review purposes.
