Ramble on & on, give it a miss
This book rambles on forever.
I did get some good insights “skill stacking” for example.
But to my thinking the book doesn’t go close to presenting Rapid Skill Acquisition.
Save your precious time & give this book a miss.
It’s ironic, the book talks about not wasting time & yet, I just wasted a lot of my time listening.
