Not a Life Coach: Are You Ready to Change Your Life? From the Sunday Times No.1 Bestselling Author

Product Information

Also its ironic that he slates Joe wicks for suddenly becoming a chef when thats not what he is trained in yet he suddenly feels qualified to release guide book for life when he's a 30 year old middle class wealthy man and always has been (not always 30 obviously but you know what I mean)! It is particularly infuriating when a reference page is constantly mentioned in the footnotes but said page is actually on a different page number.

That said, there are still some good stuff here, like the part about brain plasticity and growth mentality (ok, one good thing). e. double spacing between lines, far too many blank pages and lots of repetition throughout, all of which give a misleading impression of the quantity of content contained in the book.No you might not be able to just up and leave country at this given moment, but if you so desperately want to you can plan to make that happen.

hours of listening to him that they are just regurgitated information or memes that he has seen and posted. This book is useful as an accessible version of the material it references for those who can’t be bothered to read the underlying sources. This book is full of contradictions, one minute he’s saying he believes people should leave their careers if they don’t align with their utopian vision of their future, the next he’s idolising people working in checkouts of supermarkets, admiring the nobility of it.

A lot of the things are something I do agree with, such as looking at negativity and thinking of how much energy we waste in worrying about things.This book does make you reflect on your own life and you need to remember how important having a work life balance is. Time to stop sleep-walking through your life; to challenge the status quo; and to truly ask yourself if you’re on the right path to success, happiness and fulfilment.

It gets worse when there is a chapter titled “fucking” where the author brags about hitting his “century” (for those of you who have been spared the painful explanation in the book, a “century man” is someone who has slept with at least 100 different women). As for the target audience, through reading the book I percieved it to be aimed towards young adult men in their early 20ies.Not a Diet Book mercilessly takes down every fad diet, workout and health drink you have been sold and instead explains [James’] mission to make understanding weight-loss as two words – calorie deficit. This book would have been better titled “Not a Life Coach - Ramblings of a Privileged Middleclass White Man” I am astonished this book got as far as being published. I didn't find this book anywhere near as good as his first book, and I think that is probably because it is abundantly clear that he is not at an accomplished level of most of the topics of the book. All I saw were people saying that he was talking about social media and just packing a bag and travelling.

Let me start by saying I've followed JS for years, love his fitness content, loved his first book and love his general approach to health and fitness advice. The only possible reason why he abruptly kept quoting Einstein about the law of thermodynamics in a self improvement book is the effort to seem smarter even though “he didn’t do school”.Found a few interesting ideas such as James' philosophy on social media use but the majority of this book can be summarized as poor regurgitation of original personal development bestsellers such as "4-hour workweek", "Atomic Habits", "The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck" etc. Only you can take the reins of your own life and choose to make a change, but with invaluable experience, a hunger for genuine happiness, and a drive to be the kind of coach he needed when his life was broken, James can give you the tools to do it. Possibly a good gateway personal development book for someone who doesn't read non fiction but I felt there was nothing new or noted information or even memorable stories.
