I was slightly hesitant to read this book and took a long time to get around to it, mostly because I thought it would be difficult to follow or feel deadening. That was a silly worry. This is a lively, energizing, exciting book. It's the kind of book that you only want to read a piece at a time, because there's so much so start doing with each chapter. And while I recommend reading through the whole book, I think that slowing down a little as you match concrete action with each chapter is really beneficial. In my first reading of the book I was especially blessed by the meditation, fasting, confession, and guidance chapters. But that's just the first reading - before I was even finished I knew that I wanted to start reading it again from the beginning and take it even slower. Of the thirteen disciplines listed I wouldn't have changed a single one. If you take this book seriously, you will be blessed by it.

I've been listening to these off/on for the last few months, and really enjoy the message. Would recommend to the daily commuter.
