Beautiful guide to improve oneself

Dr Daniel does a excellent job as a guide to help self defeating people.Most of us have some self defeating habits difficult to get rid off.The step by step approach helps us to discover ourselves and improve our lives.This book has to be listened again and again.The ideas have to be practiced with full commitment.The beauty of the course is that it can be individualised.The audio presentation clear and lucid though in some places appears to be hurrying.Thank you Dr. Daniel.

Excellent review from Dr. Amen.

Excellent as always. It's a good review and summary of his essential material.

As a long-time listener I prefer Dr. Amen's voice at this point.

Highly recommend in any case.

Phenomenal

This took me back to my college days. I enjoyed following this guide while also being able to pause the book to take notes! I realized through this experience I learn much better audibly.

Very helpful info; need it on paper

This is very insightful and helpful information. I found myself wishing that I had it in paper format so that I could take notes and the tests, also to use the book as a reference. Dr Amen certainly has much to share that is useful for many individuals to improve our mental health as well as our relationships with others.

What a whole new perspective

This audiobook is a God send! I have always been struggling with anxiety and self sabotaging behaviors. After listening to this, I see the many ways where I have gotten in my own way and engaged in self defeating behavior. I now feel more informed and empowered in my everyday life , thank you Dr Amen!

Not read by author

I didn’t realize it wasn’t going to be read by Dr Amen. I love Dr Amen’s work and it’s just not the same when he isn’t reading it.
