Perfect Title!

An effective set of tools. Well delivered.

Easy Listening and Very Inspiring

I'm on my second listen.

Michael Neill uses a very conversational style which is engaging.

The core message is to be honest with yourself, connect what you really want, and to be happy before, and not after, you achieve your goals. Start with happy and everything else can be approached with joy versus desperation or struggle.

Lot's of great insights, wonderful teaching stories too.

Well-reasoned reminders to go with your flow

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. He is not a rah-rah 'write your goals and live your dreams' coach/preacher who tries to whip up fervour for personal goal-setting and obsessive positivity. He is an encouraging, softly spoken and reasonable bloke who gently reminds listeners about what's important to them.

What other book might you compare Effortless Success to and why?

It's a bit different I think. I'm not really into coaching/self-help stuff because it tends to be a quick fix of feel-good rah-rah that fizzles out on the shelf. (Where it ends up pretty fast). I think you might listen to this one a few times, even in the background while you do other stuff. It has a gentle way of cutting through.

What did you learn from Effortless Success that you would use in your daily life?

It's really a reminder that it's all OK.

Any additional comments?

I'm only bothering to write this because there was a sad, poisonous little review here that obviously came from somewhere deep within the reviewer and had nothing whatever to do with this guy or his presentation. (This was obvious to readers of the review, as you can see from the lack of 'helpful' tags.) You would not recognise the book from the comments of the person who said 'ugh' take it off the list. It would be a wonderful thing if that person could listen to it and be open to being OK. He is OK, you could be OK too.

Get this book

Michael Neill is not your average, scary, annoying self-help guru. Notice how they often make you feel worse about yourself? Not Michael. He is the real deal. With him you'll feel inspired and refreshed and wise, and from that place you'll create change effortlessly. There's none of that in your face, go out and get 'er done kind of cr*p.

Many "Aha!" Moments!

I had many AHA moments when I read this book. I mean like Oprah Super Soul Sunday AHA! --
I've read many Hay House authors and listen to Hay House radio, so I was familiar with Michael Neill. As I listened to his book I realized that all of the things he was saying made sense. The ideas and concepts are things I've always followed naturally but didn't really understand how I could make it work for me.
I've always felt that if something is so difficult that you are "fighting an uphill battle" that it wasn't meant to be. There should be a natural flow of things and it shouldn't be difficult all the time.
This book reinforced for me many things I've always known but I also learned many things that I think are very helpful.
I highly recommend this book, I finished it this morning than started it over again because I felt like I just needed to have it poured in my brain again to grab what I missed the first time. If I had the paper book (and I might actually buy it) it would be dog eared.

To sum up the Author in my opinion, he is a little Wayne Dyer, a more mellow Tony Robinson but presented in a realistic, helpful and easy to apply to daily life manner. He makes me want to be a life coach! (I think I might be gushing) Seriously it's helpful info you can apply this very minute. READ IT!

Very insightful

A good one to listen to again and again. Lots of insight about how to reconnect with our own wisdom and flow.

Finding your wow has never been so insightful

During this book, my mind was opened up to so many things, that I've never even thought of, or considered. I would highly recommend this book, to whoever may be questioning life. Or are even just looking for a different way of doing things in life. I will guarantee you, that if you listen intently, and do the things he informs you to do. Your life, and the joy in your life, will increase immensely.

Clear and Impactful

I finished it in two settings due to a long car trip recently. My library, contains many volumes and all the classical spiritual and self help books that you might imagine a true fan of the self help - spiritual development genre would have: for me this over a hundred books. Effortless Success, genius is its simplicity and call to actions that are real and doable. You won't find esoteric concepts that are a challenge to visualize. What you will find is a well laid out explanation that is clean, to the point, and easy to implement. The performance is stellar, read by the author, who is exceptional at portraying his intention, passion, sincerity, love, and mastery of this empowering topic. I cannot imagine anyone listing to this with an open mind - who wants to change their life for the better and not finding valuable insights that they cannot wait to implement. I am thrilled I listed and cannot wait to start it again and again. Simply amazing.

Good Stuff

Really good, practical, applicable principles. Looking forward to listening again to drill all the info into my head. He's a good narrator. I listened at 1.25x which was perfect.

at first I wasn't sure about this book

If you could sum up Effortless Success in three words, what would they be?

honestly I was turned off at the beginning - seemed like just simple, rehash but by the end he got me and I'm glad I listened
