    I can relate to how morals have fallen over the years, I can tell by how the grandparents we hear tell you a very different story regarding well-being (they don't relate it to material success but to love and independence) and watching old TV shows you can tell there were strong values and morals, but nowadays it's only about fame and self-promotion. But as stated in the review, we can still focus on what's important and grow to build a good character that could impress our grandparents and rise above all of our society's misconceptions about life
  • Exceptional book

    I like how the author describes real stories as examples. Gusttaría I like but I note that it is possible to live a meaningful life and be of genuine character without being religious. I think Abraham Lincoln's character is an excellent combination of humility with unselfish love for humanity so it's a great book to read.
  • Great Overview!
