An easily digestible book, due to the very short chapters and mixture of angles and concepts. I read it in a couple of hours and enjoyed it. I do feel it's a bit like a lot of things in life - people who are super successful, have a string of amazing opportunities and it makes it very easy to write about them in an exciting and absorbing way. Whilst incredibly impressive, books like this do always leave me feeling a bit like I've wasted my life completely so if you're of a negative disposition it might not be the best read for you, but if you enjoy hearing about how amazing other people's lives are then fill your boots, and pass an afternoon with this book.

Love this book for its comfortable conversation, the feeling of the author's presence. It is easy to read and plenty to learn. Simple stories with simple conclusions that drive you through the wisdom of the author aka coaching you through storytelling.

And I though that my dad's work tales were interesting but he's never had to deal with the things Pasternack has had to deal with! Maybe he should enter a more interesting line of work.

This work is a series of short notes and stories, each of which is no longer than a single page, about various events in the author's life and what he has taken away from the experience described. Think a format similar to Aesop's Fables.

This was a quick read for me. Each story was well-written and concise. This work would make an excellent gift book, or perhaps a restroom reader.

Fun and enjoyable read. Beware this is not a business or investing book but a memoir of the author's life experience that was fun, unusual and memorable. After each small story there is a lesson learned that was informative and at times interesting. I enjoyed traveling to all the interesting places the author has been and experience some the most memorable moments especially the F1 stories.

Travels and Aphorisms. This is one of those quick, read any way you want type books that you can read straight through or you can read a short chapter in a few hurried minutes, in any order you want. Those familiar with Christian daily devotional books will recognize the overall format, though this is a purely secular book based on Pasternak's near 50 years of travelling all over the globe as a high level corporate businessman. Filled with short yet interesting stories, many of them apparently already shared on his LinkedIn page in nearly the same (200 ish word) length, this is a great book for someone looking for a light read or a businessman looking for a business-oriented read with some solid truths in that space. Very much recommended.
