Reseñas de la Crítica

"When Stephen Covey talks, executives listen." (Dun's Business Month)

excellent

loved it... very easy to follow great points and pointers ... refreshing to the mind

7 Habits that are a benchmark to follow

I have read the book, and previously listened to an abreviated version. If you are not already in this category, or familiar with these habits, I would highly recommend listening to this book multiple times. These habits describe fundamental principles that by consistently applying will make anyone, or team more effective. I have added them to a picture that is displayed on my computer monitor. I want to be continually reminded because "we become what we think about."

Great Audio Book - A MUST listen

This is a great audio book. Definitely not a substitution for the book, but, a great use of 3 hours of driving time.

I have never understood why people would bad mouth the reader - especially not with great content like this book. I guess it is just peoples need to be negative.

Covey has a style all of his own, and I really enjoy it. No one can please EVERYONE all of the time, so, listen to it for yourself and ignore those previous writers that have put this audio book down. They were obviously looking for a "spiderman" movie in an audio book. Not so.

All this to say that you should get the book. You will learn A LOT! Even if it is just a refresher after you have read the harcopy (which I have as well). Enjoy.

Huge lifesaver for college!!

This was a book I had to purchase as a freebie so that I could complete an assignment!. It's always a bonus when the author is the one narrating the book! <3 :)

Fundamentals to focus and strategy

Dr. Stephen Covey does well in simplifying the roadmap to gaining focus and implementing strategy in one's daily activities.

This read is easy to understand and provides valuable insight that can be implemented and molded to one's own philosophy.

fantastic book

the book really digs deep and put you on the right road to success in life and money

Great Refresher

This is the fifth time I read the book. It is such a good refresher on how to build leadership with integrity in your life. Never disappoints.

Very Good, it is a classic.

It is sooo fun to listen to. And sometimes it is even emotional. I recently became a father, and this book made me understand the complete change of paradign the i went through. I recommend it 100%. Sorry my english.

A great condensed version of the book

As someone who has not read the full version of the book, I was skeptical about trying this condensed audio version based on some of the negative reviews. However, I found it to be very enjoyable and worthwhile. Although reading the unabridged version might help fill in some gaps, this recording was done by the author himself, and I trust he did a good summary representation of the material that he in fact wrote in the first place :)

Powerful!

This book will help you really evaluate yourself, your purpose, and every relationship that you are involved with ...AWESOME read...Will reference often!
