He shares the story of how much he hated participating in high school football practice and couldn’t understand why his father was steadfast that he couldn’t quit. Only many years later did Andy find out that his dad privately cried about what he was putting his son through. But his dad’s thinking was that if a person thinks he can quit something as simple as football, it will lead to a habit of quitting more important things.

He tells us that average people compare themselves to other people, while extraordinary achievers do not compare themselves to other people. Instead, they compare themselves to their own potential. ‏‏He tells us that if we want to be an extraordinary achiever, then we really do want to be different. Rachel and her daughter Vivian have left London to start a new life in a small town. Rachel is worried about Vivian, but at first things go quite well and she’s happy to see Vivian seems to have found friends at school and life feels good. I finished up the book in just a few hours. I read each and every word cover to cover. It's that good! The audio narration was expertly and professionally done. I like that Andrews while narrating the audiobook included a few whimsical statements relating only to audiobook listeners; not a part of the book. He includes areas where he felt punctuation does not express well his intentions, and this can be added (and it is) in this audiobook version via his expression. Being a professional speaker, the narration was well-done and Andrews adds inflection to his work, which is not a surprise being he is the book’s author.

Assuming you read it or listen to it, which I would encourage because I love listening and talking with a close friend, doesn't that call into question this problem?;...

Ok, the work is the product of the author. And what is the product of this work? That would be you or I. What will be the product of this book? The answer is up to each one of us. I am sorry to admit few will answer well. Her idea is to move and have a fresh start. Without her mother to talk to she settles down to life with her daughter, now aged 15. But trust me, things make sense in its own weird, senseless, psychological thriller kind of way towards the end. Please be aware: a person who obstinately chooses blindness is a dangerous step or two beyond mere pessimistic perspective. A gloomy way of seeing things is only a walk along an unguarded cliff. Choosing not to see the cliff at all, however, can be the end of everything.

This was certainly more of a character's story than a plot driven one. It's not full of twists and turns but more of a slow burn drama of a really toxic mother/daughter relationship. Although I guessed the reveal quite early on, the fantastic depiction of both main characters kept me in suspense until the explosive ending. Soon it becomes clear that their relationship is like a train waiting to derail, so you can't help being in tension the whole time, cause when it derails you know it's gonna be in a spectacular fashion.

And I am more passionate than ever about my search to notice that thing—that one tiny thing—that, when understood and harnessed, allows me to help YOU create a life of extraordinary purpose and powerful results. It’s less about drive and willpower than it is about a deep understanding of certain principles and why they work . . . every time.Rachel and her daughter Vivian left London approximately six years ago searching for that fresh start. What was the trigger that had them running? All is hunky dory until a stranger takes more than a passing interest in the mother and daughter. Just what is happening and how will Rachel react to the comings and goings. There's hardly an exception where I would not prefer to have a book in physical form rather than have the audio version. This is different. I want both the audio and physical book, the last to mark well and refer to.

Proof trumps uncertainty. Proof leads. We might question motives. We often question conclusions. We question methods and timing. But we do not question proof.
