Seriously?I feel like I just bought one of those annoying Tai Lopez adds thats all reach and no vomit. So much unneccessary filler chatter to flesh out what could be summed up in one sentence. Here it is; Don't wait longer than 5 seconds when you have an impulse to do something. Done. Save yourself the money. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Too longWhile the context of this book is quite good and I have found the actual 5 Second Rule to be somewhat helpful, the length of this recording is way too long. The author has repeated the same stories over and over like some sort of affirmation or ritual. 1 hour would have repetitive. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

AverageFull of repetitive tail-chasing. Could serve as an affirmation tool, but as an actual piece of literature, it is a poor experience. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review! You reported this review! 79 people found this helpful
one big sales pitch for her 5 second rule.personally I couldn't listen to this book. had to stop at chapter 3 as she said the same thing over and over. 5 second rule will change your life like it did for Bob cos he can run a marathon now and is rich. do I care ?? I found the repetition so annoying and the fact she said nothing in the first fifteen minutes made me not waste my time any further. I'll be returning this one as it's not for me. don't even care what this magical rule is. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

returned it.I couldn't get past the first few chapters. It sounds like a great big sales pitch and self-absorbed dross. It's so drawn out it feels like an infomercial.

Great toolA great tool but seriously not a 20 chapter book. I listened for 11 chapters hoping it would shed some light then telling the same storyline 30 different ways. Something went wrong.

Very little substance and repetitiveI was trying to get though this book but could only get to chapter 13. The author describes her struggle to write this book, I'm sorry but it is very evident that this book was a struggle to write! Very little substance, repeating the same story over and over again and using 150 (in her own words) social media stories and feedbacks that are supposed to bring credibility to the subject. This book is filled with - research shows - statements that provide evidence that is neither substantiated or referenced, it feels like a collection of chapters that have been filled with information freely available on the internet and pulled together to suite the authors message. Watch the TEDx talk of Mel on the 5 second rule on YouTube and you have heard everything that you need to know about this subject. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Don't waste your time and creditWhat could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? To not have to listen to someone from a well-off family complain about being in financial trouble. I understand everything said and can sympathise with the situation they were in, but find it incredibly hard to feel sorry for someone who always had wealthy family and friends to fall back on if they had to. Would you ever listen to anything by Mel Robbins again? No. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The 5 Second Rule? Most of it. Any additional comments? The title of the book is literally all the information you need. The book contents don't contain any more useful information, unless you like listening to a person with wealthy family and friends complaining about how little money they had. Something went wrong.

miss this book at your own perilthis, I must say, as someone who consumes a lot of positive psychology material, is an amazing book. Too often we hear the terms "hustle", "do the work" etc and that's all good and week, but if you are down and out, it's like your best friend telling you to snap out of it! Mel shares a really simple method here to honor your greatness, do the stuff you need to do and sing the songs inside of you. Mel, your sincerity makes this my favorite book, I will be recommending it wherever I go, 5 4 3 2 1 go. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

I turned it off after an hour.It's a great tool. 54321 GO! It really does hijack your brain momentarily and get you moving. However, the book is FULL of fluff. Her reading feedback from her fans about how they've used the '5 second rule' to make changes, over and over and over and over and over again is not my idea of a 'book'. It's a 'Ra Ra' rally and a waste of my time. In the end I found it annoying. The tool however does work to defeat procrastination. You can probably find a blog post or a TEDx talk somewhere that will give you all you need. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

Would have been better as a motivational posterI tried to listen to as much as this book as I could stomach, but there was just no substance. It was the same exact statement reworded over and over again a million different ways. On top of that the author likes to laugh at her quirks, at odd times. As I'm trying to listen to it right now, the book is telling me, again, how the rule will help me, without specifying anything else about this rule. There are "volumes and volumes of research proving that it works," which aren't cited. I would suggest skipping over this book, because the entire book is the author counting down from 5, over and over and over with fluff in between Something went wrong.

GoI just did the 54321 seconds rule, I'm writing a review...this alone is frightening for me. I think it's because deep down I always want to write, what I think and feel, but I never bother because I thought about it to much . It's simple and a small start will do, I just did. Thanks to Mel Robbins, I have re-connected within my self to force myself the "GO" push using her 54321. I recommend it to anyone, who desperately wants a change and a chance to find them self again. I totally love her tone of voice and stories she use to demonstrate her point across. The message is so clear, that I'm so glad I was listening. I hope you find my review useful, but most of all, that you find yourself doing the 54321, now Go! Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

Good concept but couldn't relateThey tell a bunch of stories of other people and the story is said over about 20 min per person and then says the one little instance they used the 5 second rule. It's a book with tons of filler and not much substance Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review! You reported this review! 417 people found this helpful
Count down 5,4,3,2,1... and do itThe 5-second rule is the moment you have an instinct to act on a goal, count down 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and physically move (or your brain will stop you with an excuse). This starting ritual will help to change many of your behaviors. There are 5-second moments all day long - wake up early, exercise, clean up, organize files, pay the bills, do the laundry, don't have that drink, don't smoke, update your resume, and speak up in a meeting. These are all simple actions that can be done (and you probably had these thoughts a hundred times already). Count 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... do it. This is a better alternative to sitting there and worrying or complaining about it. There is no right time or the feeling of being ready; just count down and do it. There isn't anything earth-shattering about this advice. If you tried it and it does work for you, read the book to stay motivated and be inspired by stories of other people who have changed their lives. Something went wrong.

Simple and extremely powerful!So I have about 190 Audible books in my library and this is my first full review. While there are so many books telling you what we can do to achieve greatness, this book provides a tool that truly works. I first tried it to get up in the morning to workout, and I literally was able because of this simple yet powerful tool. I highly recommend this to anyone who overthinks things and ends up not taking action. Thank you Mel, I will be passing this along. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Good concept but really annoying to hear her talkWould you try another book from Mel Robbins and/or Mel Robbins? I found her 5 second rule from a Youtube video of her talking about it and I applied it to waking up early. It was the only self help trick that actually gave me immediate results and I was so happy that I beat my habit of waking up late for years. Naturally I thought maybe this book would as inspiring. It is not. I've managed to force myself to listen up to Chapter 12 and find her very annoying after about the first hour of listening. The book is filled with examples of how her listeners have used this rule and not much about the science behind it or how you can apply it to yourself..and if I have to hear her say "5 4 3 2 1" again, I'll shoot myself. Basically there's a lot of fluff and little substance. I believe her main points can be summarized in an article and that a book was not necessary. I haven't gained much from it than what I already know from a quick video that she's done explaining the rule. I found the way she talked really annoying and I don't know how to explain it other than she doesn't sound humble. She sounds like someone that would talk way too much about herself if you had to talk to her in real life. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

Really drags out a very simple concept.What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Needed to move through the points more quickly and make this book MUCH shorter. What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? Very American in style Any additional comments? The concept is simple, count down from 5 and act. It is a good concept and its useful to know the science behind it, but dragged out far too long for my liking; 7 hours! No doubt others will like this book and enjoy the emotional aspect with the examples of people putting this into practice. But from the perspective of looking for new ideas for personal development there is far too much unnecessary content. It could have been an hour or less.I would recommend this book for the concept and nothing more. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

Utter waste of time and moneyFirstly, I don't think this 5 second rule works always. It is trying to ingest discipline through that recital of 5 4 3 2 1 Go. But you actually need discipline to even do that consistently. Secondly, while I agree that overthinking and procrastination does not help with actions, being impulsive and acting without deliberation within 5 seconds are not the answers. Frankly some of the examples in the book are just silly. In fact, the fact that I regret buying this audiobook is an example on why you should deliberate over some decisions. Finally, the narration. Lord. I have never been grateful for the 2x speed option that allowed me to get through this faster. She sounded like my over-bearing aunt, who keeps repeating the same advice until I get out of her sight. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

Extremely repetitiveOk to listen to, narrated well. However there is only so many times you can listen to the same stories..."This person struggled...they counted 5,4,3,2,1 and changed their lives."

EnjoyableI enjoyed this book immensely. I think the learning from it is simple and could be explained in a single paragraph, but the stories from people who have used the rule are truly inspiring. The author/narrator comes across so passionately right the way through and it feels like she is speaking directly to you, in an almost conversational way. On a personal note, I really like the teaching and I can't wait to start to use this rule in my every day life... in fact I just did in writing this review!! Something went wrong.

Buy this bookWhat made the experience of listening to The 5 Second Rule the most enjoyable? This is the best book I have ever purchased, and I have purchased hundreds. In my opinion, until you read, and "get" this simple concept, you'll spend a fortune seeking it. Who was your favorite character and why? Lots of them, and mostly ordinary people. Have you listened to any of Mel Robbins’s other performances? How does this one compare? Nope, Mel is completely new to me. Mores the pity. Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? It made me wish I'd found her way back. Any additional comments? My review is genuine, and for once I felt compelled to write one. It's a great book.

Not greatA little repetitive. After reading a dozen self help books this was the worse! A very difficult audio book to listen to. Mel Robbins does a great job of blowing her own trumpet whilst fuelling her ego with example after example + sounds like every other 'Ted' talker. The book was summed up in a short chapter in 'A Chimp Paradox' when Steve Peters talks about autonomic behaviour and how you should know when to ignore or listen to your chimp. Just roll out of bed and don't think about it. If you want to paint it as 54321, then great! I wasn't going to post this but - 54321 Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

ExcellentWould you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? I already have recommended this book to friends, even while I was half way through. 'Life-changing' is a fair description in my opinion - provided you put it into practice. Any additional comments? Outstanding book. I listened to it in one sitting, but I will listen to it again several times until this becomes my habitual way of dealing with procrastination. I noticed several spots in the book where a mistake was made in the reading, so Mel reread it, obviously with the intention of an editor editing out the mistake, however these were not edited out. If she paid someone to edit this, then she needs to get them to put this right. I would be horrified if I was to hand a voice-over file back to a client with these errors in. Mel, if you want someone to edit your future audio books, I would be more than happy to do it. You will find me on your email list. Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Repetitive and obnoxiousHonestly this book can be summarized by two pages and a couple of reviews. Because to be honest that is all the book is. The premise of the rule, followed by never ending supply of success stories shoved down your throat. The five second rule might work for you, but you don’t need this book to tell you that.

This WILL transform your mind, AND your life!Listening to this audio felt like Mel was taking directly to me, in my living room. She's assertive, tells it like it is. She's knows what's in our thoughts; as she's been there. She gives you lots of live testimonies of this rule working. You will start to hear '5 seconds' going off in your head automatically when you're faced with temptation, like not wanting to get out of bed or wanting to eat something you know you shouldn't. I'm looking forward to getting the hardback copy of this book when it's released in the U.K. too. Anyone that 'wrestles' with making decisions or needs to change habits should get this book, today, via whatever means you can. I got the audiobook because the hardback was not being released until the end of March, and I couldn't wait. I'd been following Mel on Twitter and Facebook, so knew I had to get a copy. It deserved nothing less than 5 stars! Enjoy!! Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes. You voted on this review!

We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. Is The Five Second Rule a good book?It's a simple tool, backed by research, and it has changed the lives of millions. It will work for you too. Using the science of habits, riveting stories, and surprising facts from some of the most famous moments in history, Mel Robbins will explain the power of a five second decision. What is The 5 Second Rule to change your life?Your mind has about 5-second window before you start to over think things. This can include getting up in the morning, introducing yourself to others, speaking in a meeting etc. when you act within those 5 seconds you interrupt your brain from going into overthinking mode and you do what you always wanted to do. Is 5 second rule a good game?If no one is able to answer correctly, the starting person gets the point for that round. This game is great for everyone including kids over 8 or so. It's an easy-to-understand one & is fun for a small or large group; teams or individual players; & is challenging (in a good way) for the mind. What is The 5 Second Rule in a nutshell?So, here's the definition of the 5 second rule: "If you have an impulse to act on a goal, you must physically move within 5 seconds or your brain will kill the idea." That's right. The brain is a total dream squasher. So, the action point here is to count to five, and if you are reading this you can definitely do that. |
