This is a hilarious guy who gives it to you straight. Sometimes life requires you take a hard look at yourself and Mark has highlighted how he has done that in his own life. A few cuss words , a few tumbles, and few wrong turns but you cant rise without a fall. I read all three of his books and found his experiences and ideas resonated really well with the issues that I was going through at the time. I also appreciated that fact that there was not the common woo-woo that is often times found with other self help books.
