“In this impassioned debut, Breedlove explains why he left a career at a leading financial consulting firm to become a “mindset coach” who empowers people to “build and live Legendary lives.” The notion of becoming a “Legend” is arguably one of the more aspirational approaches in self-improvement literature, and the author’s brimming enthusiasm for the concept pervades every paragraph. Fourteen chapters cover familiar self-help territory, such as living with purpose, developing a positive mindset, creating a personal mission statement, and making the right choices. Each chapter incorporates the author’s own anecdotes, a smattering of examples, references to other contemporary sources, lots of chatty advice, and a bulleted closing section that combines suggested actions with a summary of key points.

The content of this work is not markedly different from typical power-of-positive-thinking books, but the author’s friendly, first-person writing style makes for an enjoyable reading experience. He capably writes about some of the more common impediments—such as fear, worry, and distrust—to living a successful life and supplies legitimate, helpful suggestions for improvement. Throughout, Breedlove comes across as compassionate and generous—qualities he reinforces in his well-executed manual.”
