I review books on my website Rachel's Reading. For hundreds more like this, check it out!

I was recommended this book since I'm participating in Rachel Hollis's Last 90 Days challenge and we did a whole week on habits. This was the second book recommended to us, and I was excited to get my hands on it. In this book, Burchard outlines six habits that can increase your performance in both work and life, and provides detailed ways to implement them in your life, as well as many free resources to assist you on your journey.

This book was extremely interesting to me. I had the audiobook and really enjoyed listening to the author read, and found it really thorough considering you're missing out on the visuals. The author does a fantastic job of describing them so you don't have to see the charts or the graphics but they make complete sense (at least to me as an auditory learner). He did a fantastic job of laying out each of the six High-Performance Habits and three specific things under each habit to impart the habit. He also provides a free test on his website and multiple other ways to interact with the text even if you're just using the audiobook which I really enjoyed. The information was presented extremely well, although it was a lot to take in and process so I had to read it much slower than other books I've read lately. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone trying to be their best self, but as always with Personal Development books, it isn't one size fits all. Some people need the type of motivation Burchard provides, and others it won't work for them, and that's okay too.
