A book review of John C. Maxwell's book Everyone Communicates Few Connect.
I am a big fan of John C. Maxwell's books. Have read a ton of them over the years. It never fails whenever I read one I find myself underlining many parts of the book and going back through it again to pull out parts that I feel are the most relevant for my life. This book is no different. But to hear my overall thoughts you will need to listen to this episode.
