Trish, I found that listening and reading were kind of different; the book has lots of thoughts he didn’t talk about in the lecture. I’d recommend both watching it and reading it. It’s a very quick read.

My bookclub is reading this in a few months (although I think I’ll try to listen it). Glad you liked it–I saw his interview with Diane Sawyer a few months ago and was really touched.

Kathy, me too! Natasha, it could have been “cheesy” but this one wasn’t! It never would have occurred to him to write a book; he is too down to earth. It was just others who encouraged him to put it together. I think it was incredibly inspiring and a quick read!

I know this one has been on the NY times bestseller list forever but I’ve never taken the time to find out what it was about. Thanks. I don’t mind books like this, I just might pick this one up.

I would hope I would stay positive, but I’m afraid I’d have a big ol’ pity party for myself.
