And also, 27 hours? Really? I think those who rated this so high perhaps were not listening with a questioning mind and were then influenced by the endowment affect: “I committed much of my life to this so it must be of great value.Kepler's Three Laws of Planetary Motion An Overview for Science teachers By David P. This book would be great if after the stories, multiple perspectives were given with an understanding of individual personalities, rather than one guy’s opinion taken as laws. I have always felt the sublime by doing this but my wife has an opposite experience: it scares her. Some of the bad advice is benign, such as looking into the stars at night to get a sense of the sublime. The advice given will be great for some but devastating for others. This is horrible advice for the anxious mind but perhaps good advice for someone who thinks like Mr Greene.
This is the kind of advice one gives when they have just begun to contemplate death and is in itself a coping mechanism. Really? Another example of bad advice is when discussing how we should view death, that we should view our impending death as a deadline to create more urgency in life. His advice: when your gut is telling you not to fight against the establishment, that means you should push even harder. From this projection, he goes on to explain the importance of fighting against the old ideas of the past. I would wager half the population are not wild child’s and rebel against their parents. Examples: When describing the evolution of an individual, it appears he believes that everyone will follow his life progression that is being a rebellious youth who fights against his parents thinking. The advice, however, is only good for a segment of the population. Don’t get me wrong, there are many wonderful nuggets in this book. Wonderful historical stories coupled with bad advice Remind yourself of your nature, your roots and meaning. So, my advice would be to reread this peace of art once a year. It's about taking at least some action towards being better every single day.
It's not about becoming an ultimate human being. But how important they are and how often we forget about them in our daily life.

First you recognize issue, then you become aware of it, then you learn how to deal with it and take action. What's also great is that Robert writers in a very practical way. It opens something for everyone because it compiles long history of observations, experiments, experiences and reflections in a nice, easy to understand way. And yet we need to listen to this 30 hours. The main lesson of the book, at least for me, is that if you want to see changes start with changing yourself. It shows that you are good, by nature, but still struggling to find this good in the world. It digs up your subconscious and makes you aware of it. It spreads awareness about kind of things everyone knows about but perhaps never really thought through. I honestly believe that this book will fit every single human on this planet. And most likely I thought that spending money on books is a waste. I always knew about audiobooks but never really encountered a service of such convenience, quality and variety. I used to do everything else but consuming(I use this word to combine reading and listening) books until recently I discovered Audible. I cannot say that I've finished a lot of books during my not so far impressive 24 years on this planet. Reread this book once a year and practice Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of listeners, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding, and mastery. From the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 48 Laws of Power comes the definitive new audiobook on decoding the behavior of the people around you.
