I want sign off and unplug more often for purpose!

This is very timely book!!! In this day and age, there’s so much ever so cleverly trying to grab our attention. I appreciate how the author precisely articulates the seemingly limitless “spectacles” we face in our lives. The author reveals keys we must apply to navigate our way. I want sign off and unplug more often for purpose!!!

Great topic, could use better narration

Subject matter is extremely relevant and well written. As for the author's narration, I hate to say it, but to put it nicely, it was monotonous; I struggled to stay focused.
