Review of 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change' on 'Storygraph'

1 star

I wanted to read this book because it's a classic and I've read good reviews of it. The book brings precious and timeless advice but I didn't like the way they were delivered. I think the writing style is boring and the author tries to "over-explain" concepts that are not that complex. And the examples he brings of his real cases with clients or with his family didn't catch my attention, I thought they were uninteresting at the majority of times.
In short, I think the book lacks objectivity and over complicates the subjects. It wasn't a good read for me at all.
