The suggestions in this book simply work.

I use it whenever a problem arises in my life.

-One day I got three parking tickets.
-One day I couldn't find my car for 30 minutes in an airport parking lot.
-One day I was stressed waiting for my offer to get approved.
-One day I hurt my shoulder very badly and was worried it would never be the same.
-One day a close friend betrayed me.

We all know stressful situations can creep in, they affect our breathing, our mood, our appetite, and even our digestion.

The point is, in each of those cases the lessons in this book came to my mind and I was able to use the techniques taught to regain control of my emotions and tackle the problems with a clearer head.

This is the first book I have read that tackles mindset in a non hippie esoteric manner.

I recently went to a Gorilla Mindset Seminar to get to know Mike a bit better.

I wanted to check his demeanor, his friends, his wife, and decide if this man is congruent with the claims he makes online.

What I found was that he is even better in real life!

He is the real thing, and he's a really NICE GUY despite all the trolling online!!

He did not try to sell anything to us. Everyone there already had Gorilla Mindset.

He paid for the venue out of pocket and charged us nothing.

He spent the entire time going over the techniques in Gorilla Mindset and answering our questions.

Believe it or not Mike is actually trying to help people!

I highly suggest this book to anyone looking for concrete and practical steps to get better control of their emotions.

On a whim I purchased this book based on my Audible recommendations. I'm that guy who buys the 3 extra credits two weeks into the month because I burn the monthly credit quick.

Mike's tone and cadence is like that of a concerned friend. You can hear his concern and you can relate to his own struggle with many of the problems you are likely facing that he either mastered through the techniques he presents or is working through currently. This is not some pie-in-sky nonsense. It's an applicable workbook built for people who are tired of being mediocre, tired of being beholden to undeserving people above and around them or simply looking to make an already good life substantially better and more focused.

So after the first listen, which clocks in around 4 hours, I had decided very resolutely to integrate a variety of habits/techniques Mike suggests in the book:
1. Contrast showers/Cold showers
2. State control - Focusing on changing your state - Empowered, resourceful, and invincible.
3. Supplementation - Almost everything he recommends
4. Dropping processed nonsense from my diet
5. Juicing/Smoothies - Joe Rogan Kale shake specifically

While I was focusing on those things I was also listening to his podcast Danger and Play since then.

Then I listened a second time.

After the second time I was hell bent. I'm now working on a modified 30-day challenge that one of Mike's friends, Victor Pride, advocates on his site.
Essentially:
No porn.
No refined carbs, or processed nonsense.
Cold showers.
Gym daily.
Methodical to-do lists daily
5am Wake up
No snacking
Answer yes or no questions with yes or no.

I am sixteen days into the challenge and experiencing great success.

As a medium to long-term reader of "Danger and Play" (I've been following the blog for about a year and check it on and off), I had high hopes for "Gorilla Mindset" and expected a lot of original and thought provoking content, as this is what Mike is known for. This book failed to live up to expectations in 3 major ways:

1). Unoriginal: Very little of the advice in the book is that new or original, and a lot of it is extremely generic. For example, the chapter on money talks about investing in index funds, the chapter on weight loss talks about eating natural foods and minimizing starch and dairy, and the chapter on self-talk talks about being positive. This is all good advice, but as a compulsive reader, investor, and fitness fanatic, this is extremely basic (all of it is probably the advice you would get on page 1 if you picked up a book on any of those respective topics)

2). Lazy/Minimal Effort: Many of the recommendations in the book were copied almost word for word from "Danger and Play." I noticed this especially on the chapters about posture, but all chapters were guilty of this to some degree

3). Poor Attention to Detail/Idea Development: I like what Mike did with the structure of the book (touching on a number of disparate elements and connecting them to mindset), but the way he developed each idea was extremely poor. Most books I found groundbreaking would bring up some controversial ideas, develop each in a lot of detail, then connect this to a new idea in a series of logical steps ("So Good They Can't Ignore You" by Cal Newport is a great example), but this book gave a number of half baked ideas, provided minimal evidence, then jumped on to something new.
