Like many others, the first time I read it years ago, I picked up pretty much only on the time-management stuff, and I was looking for a quick solution, so I missed some of the main points. Having read it recently again, I got so much more from it! It's funny how we can filter data out when we aren't ready to face something, change our attitude, etc.
With the Work in mind, reading it is quite interesting, like Luc explained above. I guess it comes down to it being a practical way to focus on our core values, on long term goals, and most of all, on being as aware as possible and not going into black&white thinking, emotional thinking, etc. Some of his suggestions are really making a difference for me at least. I feel, like he said, that changing is not so scary when you know that there is an unchangeable core that you value more than "success", keeping your thinking errors and narratives, etc.
It's also refreshing to have a book on this topic that focuses on real stuff (not fake values as promoted by society today), and encouraging people to take responsibility and act more consciously, instead of the more common "self-help books" where all you get is a promotion of fake niceties, fake success and egotism, mixed with a bunch of self-pity, "you're speshul", "hug your inner child", etc.
