Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Success Habits For Dummies
Dirk Zeller · 2019
67/100
👎 Skip It
Does exactly what the For Dummies brand promises — structured, accessible, and actionable — but the habits and goal-setting space is saturated with stronger, more research-grounded books. The author's sales-coach lens shapes the examples in ways that will not resonate with every reader. A decent entry point for someone brand new to the subject, but not the strongest option available.
