Publisher's summary

This program is read by the author.

James Fell, motivation expert and social media dynamo, teaches listeners how to skip the hard part and go directly from intention to committed action.

After years of helping people change, James Fell had a sudden insight about sudden insight: significant life change doesn’t often come from just putting one foot in front of the other, carefully observing and altering habits, slogging through baby steps toward new behavior. Rather, the research reveals that serious life turnaround usually happens in a moment, with a flash of inspiration. Epiphany arrives like a lightning strike, rapidly shifting the recipient of such enlightenment onto a new path that creates a better life.

Motivational psychology has traditionally focused on slow and steady - gradual improvement over time to reach a desired goal, whether it’s weight loss, career change, battling addiction, or success in relationships. We’ve been told since toddlerhood that the tortoise beats the hare. But, through compelling science and powerful stories, James Fell shows us that the hare has the edge; overwhelming desire can be awakened fast and furiously. When you learn to become attuned to that sensation of sudden awakening, a new path can be followed almost effortlessly, because it feels like destiny.

Everyone has the ability to experience the lightning strike. The Holy Sh!t Moment will teach you how to create a life-changing epiphany and go directly from intention to action.

Quick paced, funny, and insightful

I listen to over 10 nonfiction books per month. This is one of the best.

I feel cheated

I accidentally paused too near the end and didn’t hear if this is audible. Devastated.

Other than that this book was a game changer- totally flipped my perspective!

Holy Crap!

This book provides inspiration to do the thing that you've been dreaming about. It also provides insight to tap into your dreams to find the thing that you've been dreaming about, but cannot visualize. We all want a better life and this book helps you draw your road map on how to get there. Good luck with your dreams, your actualization, and your journey.

I actually said Holy shit. he was correct.

I didn't expect this book to be useful immediately but it was, before I even finished reading it.

A lot of psych 101

The writer talked around the. subject in an entertaining way but application of the main objective - epiphany- seemed weak.

Thoroughly Enjoyed This Book!

I really enjoyed this book! I'm a little surprised by how much and plan to listen to it again. I also liked the author's narration. some folks can write, and some are good narrator's, but James Fell is that rate unicorn who can do both.

Classic James.

I was very engaged by the subject matter and James's presentation of his own book. I will listen to it again within the next 30 days to pick up nuggets that I missed.

Excellent way to find motivation

OMG he is hilarious in his delivery. So many inspirational stories. I has several smaller epiphanies while listening to this. I’m all set up for the big one. I love that this is based on science, practically a dissertation. You won’t be disappointed.

Very enlightening

I follow James on Facebook and he is never short on substance or style. This book is more of the same of that. Very informative and well researched much like his articles are. As he states repeatedly in the book that his target reader is someone who is seeking a change I am definitely in that camp. There are some fundamental life changes I’d like to make soon that are similar to the things James has struggled through and ultimately succeeded in doing. I feel inspired that I too can make those changes and the information written here along with his usual comedic style and cursing are very relatable and I recommend this book to anyone needing a well informed and mostly science based kick in the ass to begin a new journey.
