Having taken a tentative and sceptical look at the first week of this series, I delved into the treasures of the second week with a little less hesitancy, and was rewarded with slightly more practical advice than you might have found from the first of the series. I do like that each week is literally broken down into working day sections with snappy titles for each that outline the basic content. The main focus this week was attitude, both how to develop the kinds of habits that will hopefully lead to business success and ultimately make you like one of the featured self-made millionaires, as well as guidance on risk taking and building self confidence.

This is a particularly interesting audio book series that I believe spans several weeks and essentially sets itself out as a bite sized guide to business success that works on a day to day model. I’ve listened to week 1 so far, and I have to say I am quite a fan of the format. Provided that you disregard the slightly worrying advertising that promises that the series will “reprogram” your brain in order to make you a better business program, there’s a wealth of information to be had that will be useful to most if not all of its target audience. Basically the first week seems to set out to teach you how to dress, behave and talk like an entrepreneur, which for most on the surface will seem like a good thing, especially if you’re coming from a different profession and have no experience in the business world.

My feelings about this audio book are mixed, and that is because ultimately I think whether you find this book useful or not is a subjective matter. What this means is that for some people this book will feel like a revelation and will possibly have a positive impact upon their lives, whilst for others it may feel like a self-important, banal waste of time that feels hard to connect with. How you feel about this book will depend on a number of factors, and I won’t presume to delineate exactly what these factors will be, but personality and self-confidence will have a lot to do with it.
