The Lessons I Learned: Bring Back Old-School Communication to Succeed in Business is a feel-good book of living with various life experiences. It's not an extensive book of career advice, more like a pleasant reminder of commonsense decency and work ethic through the eyes of a relatively well off middle-class North American. Come in with that mindset, and the book is okay. What kept me from rating the book higher is that the optimistic tone prevents me from getting any feeling from the writing.

Come in with that mindset, and the book is okay. What kept me from rating the book higher is that the optimistic tone prevents me from getting any feeling from the writing. Don't dwell on the negative, dream bigger for the future. Well, sure. But it's hard to feel like you're empathetic when you're so cut and dry about it. This is a case of too much editing to me, where every paragraph jumps to each thought too quickly for a reader to digest. Rather than having younger people take the advice into sincere consideration, the writing might leave the opposite effect that was intended like, "Ah, another old person rattling on about how us young people don't appreciate things." Thank you for sharing your life lessons, Becker. I may not agree with everything you said, and that's okay. I appreciate having another perspective to consider. I received the book for free through Goodreads Giveaways.
