I am a huge Steve Harvey fan. I love to watch his show and read his books. This book was good and inspirational, but I had hoped it would be a little bit longer. I like his personality. He is a very genuine, hard working man.

I actually kinda like Steve Harvey. He's something of a cultural relic--like everybody's tone deaf, old-fashioned cookout uncle by proxy.

That said, I don't know why so many people turn to him for relationship advice and help, and I was expecting this book to be full of obvious appeals to developing self-esteem and gross generalizations about how men and women think.

What I wasn't expecting is for it to be BORING--and it really, really is.

This audio book was OK. Like so many audio books it could be improved by having the author read it. That is almost always better, and particularly when the author is someone who is known outside the literary world, like Steve Harvey, it just doesn't seem right with some other random black guy reading it. Also like many non-fiction audio books I recommend that if you are interested, get the dead tree version. Not only does it make referencing later easier he has many "write this" exercises throughout here that are difficult in audio format. Granted they really tried by including an enhanced PDF version of these portions on disk for of the Book-on-CD, but even after printing the 29 pages out, I don't feel it is a substitute.

As far as the quality of the work itself, it mostly feels like regurgitated standard self-help malarkey with a few personal stories thrown in for color. I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm not sure if that's because this self-help stuff is all BS that is too difficult to follow up with so everyone can say do it and no one can prove it doesn't work; however it could also be that this stuff really does work and that's why everyone says it. Maybe Harvey's words will be enough to let me follow through and see. We'll have to wait and find out.

There was a lot more Jesus in this book than I expected. I appreciated that, others might not.

Cannot remember when it was the last time I was so touched by a book. Steve Harvey really knows how to deliver his lines to make them more influential, more powerful, and more meaningful than they initially appear. That's something that I am striving at, and thus appreciate this book a whole lot more. What Mr. Harvey does in this book is that he shares the formula and secret of his success in his own way and thus explains how he's managed to completely turn his life around and eventually raise himself from being jobless and homeless to a well-respected, inspirational, world-wide known television host. This book truly is amazing because I am sure Mr. Harvey gave his best of himself as he was writing it. My only complaint is that it's too short, because the world deserves to read more of this man's wisdom and of this man's knowledge, for it's clear that this man was not an overnight success, but he actually had to work jobs he hated for a very long time, had top endure failure and criticism as he stared out as a comedian, and was even booed of the stage after embarrassing performance. So, let me just end this review by saying; if you've heard of this man, have seen one of his shows, then you already know who's the man I am talking about. If you haven't heard of this man, have never seen one of his shows, then you probably don't know a lot about him, but you are missing out on a lot, a lot of wisdom and a lot of knowledge, and a lot of knowledge he offers as a gift to the people in the audience, to the viewers in front of their television sets, and of course to the world.… (mais)
