Summary
Over the past few years, Brianna Wiest has gained renown for her deeply moving, philosophical writing. This new compilation of her published work features pieces on why you should pursue purpose over passion, embrace negative thinking, see the wisdom in daily routine, and become aware of the cognitive biases that are creating the way you see your life. Some of these pieces have never been seen; others have been read by millions of people around the world. Regardless, each will leave you thinking: this idea changed my life.

This is a good book to dip in and out of for daily inspiration. A lot of the content though when listened to on an audio book, is repeated quite a lot, and the list format is impossible to follow, just random numbers being called in the end.

Profile Avatar Daniel V. Jan 2022

A lot of repetition and an unusual number of numerical lists. This is not a book of essays as much as book of spiritual, self actualizing quotes. Some of these quotes or self affirmations are good. Some are trite but remain in the minority.

The point is that this is a series of lists, rather than real essays. Which is to say points aren't argued or linked together, but rather fired out as a series of truisms. And for a book with a highly repetitive style, it is way too long.

Some reviewers do not like the list format of this tome. I do understand why that may be a detractable interpretation, however I think perhaps the they are not actively listening. the title is 100 essays...et al. . The author doesn't title the essay, she numbers it, within the framework of the essay the author also numbers the relevant points of the initial introduction. many of the ideas the author related answered and or explained questions and concepts I had that heretofore weren't fully developed. put into words things I experienced but hadn't concisely been able to express. I can't say this book will change a life or even a mindset but I can say with absolute confidence that some part will resonate. I highly recommend it, be warned some truths are difficult to hear and even harder to accept.

Nice listen. Sort of a “ smooth jazz” of a book. Wonderful narration though.

I love this book so much that I bought a hard copy to keep it on my coffee table

The narrator's voice is calm and more understandable message, but the book was complicated to understand. Too many numerical numbers.

Bravo! Brianna does it again !

This has all the answers you're looking for.

It's your run of the mill self help book. Sprinkles of stoic, mystic, and clicheish quotes. The book could be condensed to 50 quotes since much of it redundant.

Profile Avatar Emmanuel N. Jul 2021

Great Essays. I loved them.

Profile Avatar Nazim C. Jun 2020

This is a great book, its simple yet effective. If you're looking for a reminder of good habits and a way to relax and sit back, this book is for you.

Profile Avatar Aaron R. Jun 2020

From almost the first essay the content was useless. It reads like a men’s health or cosmo article. Not to detract from these magazines but I expected a little more depth. Essays include “10 things that socially intelligent people do” or “10 things emotionally intelligent people don’t do”.
