William Brennan

I feel like this book has a lot of good information, but it is lost in a sea of anecdotes, and severe over elaboration. Found myself losing interest a lot, and losing what his actual point is because of all the side stories he tells. I feel like if the book was shorter, and concentrated on getting to the point I would have been able to get a lot more information from it. I'm going through the audible version of it, as I don't retain information as well when I actually read it. I've tried listening to it at different speeds to see if it helps, but no matter what it still just drones on. Even read on audible, the book has taken 10 hours. I figured that would be 10 hours of worthwhile information, rather it was 10 hours of stories. I might listen to it a couple more times if I can stomach it to see if I can pull some meaning out of it. Maybe concentrate on individual chapters. There were a few eye openers here and there, but overall it's just hard to retain the information.
