I just saw this book mentioned and searched for any reviews here. How fun to find a video from a brand new channel. The quotes at the end are great! Thank you for the video and have fun with your new channel!
Good idea about putting FREE on the donations box. Decades ago, I had no furniture at all and was sleeping on the concrete floor of a studio apartment. I worked from 9pm until 6am. I went home for lunch one night about 2am and there was a nice twin mattress leaning up against the Coke machine with a "FREE" sign on it. I had slept on that concrete floor for about two months. I have back issues. It was brutal. When I walked into the foyer of the apartment complex and saw that mattress and the sign on it, oh man, I grabbed that thing and wrestled it into the elevator and up to my apartment. It looked and smelled brand spanking new. It was glorious.
Thank you for making this video. I've had this book on my "To Read" list for the longest time and have never been able to find the spoons for it. This summary was very helpful. Looking forward to more of your videos!
Nice! Great tips. A lot I try to do, but there were some new ones in there for me. For some weird reason I went from reading a book or two a week to literally zero after a baby. That’s when adhd hit me hard, and now I can’t seem to read anything….so thanks for this summary!
No problem!! I’ve had multiple phases of my life now (and still occasionally go through periods) where I couldn’t even get off the couch to feed myself, let alone pick up a book. I hope to make this information accessible to everyone going through similar difficulties.
I really, really liked this video! I get so overwhelmed by all these self help books that I don't know where to start! This was one I was thinking about buying for a while and I think I will but it now.
You should add affiliate links to your videos. I'd like to buy the book based on your review, but there are no affiliate links that I can use to support you :(
Thank you for a great video! I absoloutely love this book and was looking for a video to review it--this was perfect :) I saw that you made a video for Atomic Habits next, which I also love! I subscribed immediately and I'm looking forward to your future videos :) Thanks for making this channel and helping us all :)
@@alexmcgehee9291 Thank you so much for your kind comment! I took a bit of a hiatus due to health issues (and a bit of procrastination), but I am almost done editing Atomic Habits part 2 and am always open to book recommendations!
Hi there! Spoon theory is a common metaphor in the neurodiverse and chronic illness communities referring to the amount of energy tasks take in a day based on our symptoms. Here’s an article if you’re interested! www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/01/14/spoon-theory-chronic-illness-spoonie/
YES!! Totally me about my PT exercises too! I have them print and email them because I love paper but easily misplace things 😅 Subscribed because I actually felt understood and not doubting that I DO have these struggles!❤
When you have ADHD and you live with someone who also has ADHD. You want to throw things out and they want to keep it all because 'those books are worth money' then does nothing to pack them up or even find anyone who wants them.
Too much introduction pls get to the topic the video suggests, reason being I almost left the video and annoyed waiting for the topic to begin, it could do the same to your audience. 🤷 Ty
Thank you for making this video! I really enjoyed the intersectional lens of this book and highly recommend the audio book. It's great to body-double with while I clean! 😂🧽🧼🧹

Why don't you use the skip and slider like the rest of us? Would've taken you less time than to complain.
