Beast mode

A book that I needed as a team leader. If the atmosphere and culture is good/fun The team will work harder for the team and company. If not it will be treated as just another job where workers will want to do their jobs and go home. But it all starts with leadership. A really fun and interesting concept used to this book.

From the 1.3 to PhD
The comeback kid.

Paradigm-shift

For the first time, I’ve heard of a behavior modification technique that I can really, authentically use!

Amazing!

I was honestly shocked by this book. I thought that I would dread having someone read me a book, but I loved it! I was expecting a monotoned reader, but I received an engaged reader who had many different tones. Along with multiple readers. I read the first 20 pages of the book and i got 10 times more out of her reading it to me than reading it myself.

Great book on making work fun!

I have personally found ways to apply all 4 practices to my job. This is a must read if you aren't happy at work.

Great short effective story

If you're struggling with morale in your workplace this is definitely a good read and place to start. You may even notice that you're already implementing some of the concepts individually. But taking all elements in together.... really wonderful idea! Can't wait to see for these practices and concepts pan out in my work place!

Home work blending

As my wife and I have become more busy with work, home became off balanced. I was looking for a way to restore the joy in my home and let it flow over to work. I read this book years ago for work and thought it could help us. As a father and leader of my home the vibe in my home was on me. Fish reminded me of how we use to be before the cares of this life took over. Thanks for reminding me the vibe in the house is a choice. I remembered to be present and to play with my family. To speak life
Thanks a bunch

Life is too short to not play and love every moment

Loved every part of it, very much needed for the slump I have felt at work. I’ve kept my energy high, but colleagues haven’t. Hopefully they will listen to the message the way I did.

Best Advice

Good words for life implementation. Be honest with your self for true benefits of its application.

great suprise

the plotline became a wee bit cheesy and part of the "story" was unnecessary. But overall the book was a very good read and has great questions/activities to help grow or recover a positive fun work environment.

Changes needed once known!

Thank you for reinventing and reinvigorating my mind. I needed this, my first copy had been appropriated before completing the book.
