I’ve been following Michael Hyatt for over seven years now, and this book is based on a five-part video course that he had put out a few years ago. The book came out in early 2018 and, while I had pre-ordered it, I cancelled that order before it shipped. For some reason, I assumed that it wouldn’t be very helpful or practical, especially since I’m a stay-at-home dad.

What I found was the complete opposite. This book was all meat and no fluff. Hyatt shared a method of goal planning that was holistic and evidence based. He didn’t take me step-by-step (pull out a piece of paper, write down…), but instead, offered that suggestion in a sentence or two after couching the activity with research and experience.

I wanted this to be my first book of 2019, and it was a very solid start. I feel very confident that I’ll be more successful in my goal setting this year than I was last.
