David has a great, easy to read writing style. He draws from his own experiences and uses real life examples as well as some of his heroes like Sir Ernest Shackleton, Sir Edmund Hillary and Sir Winston Churchill to illuminate the ideas and points that he makes. It is these real-life examples that make the subject much more engaging.
