Resumen del Editor
How did a young tradesman in early 18th-century Philadelphia with no money, no connections, and no formal education end up as a leading scientist, an inventor, a master diplomat - and even a Founding Father of the United States of America?
He used the same resource we have inside ourselves: a capacity for self-improvement.
Building a better life through conscious, strategic effort was the essence of who Benjamin Franklin was. An embodiment of the Enlightenment ethos, he had an astonishing ability to set and achieve goals that led not only to personal success, but also to everything that helped to transform America - and the world.
With bona fides like those, who wouldn’t want to follow Franklin’s advice?
In Ben Franklin’s Lessons in Life, you’ll learn how to use Franklin’s strategies to achieve success in your own life and to serve your fellow human beings. Using his own reflections and experiences, Mark Canada discusses many of Franklin’s lessons, which include living with purpose, educating oneself, communicating effectively, maintaining a positive outlook, leveraging others’ strengths, and crafting an image to meet your ends. Even if you don’t have any aspirations of taming lightning or founding a new nation, this Audible Original will help empower you to improve your life, achieve your full potential, and make lasting contributions to society.
We think Franklin would approve.

Historia
We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Historia
The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

Historia
Prosecuting attorney in the Manson trial Vincent Bugliosi held a unique insider's position in one of the most baffling and horrifying cases of the 20th century: the cold-blooded Tate-LaBianca murders carried out by Charles Manson and four of his followers. What motivated Manson in his seemingly mindless selection of victims, and what was his hold over the young women who obeyed his orders? Now available for the first time in unabridged audio, the gripping story of this famous and haunting crime is brought to life by acclaimed narrator Scott Brick.

First published less than a year after the infamous verdict, Jeffrey Toobin's nonfiction masterpiece tells the whole story, from the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman to the ruthless gamesmanship behind the scenes of "the trial of the century".

Since its rise to the highest ranks of power in Renaissance Europe, the Borgia family has developed a scandalous reputation. While they were indeed ostentatious, calculating, worldly, cruel - and even, occasionally, murderous - you may be surprised to find that the Borgias were not terribly different from other powerful and ambitious families of their day. So why has history set them apart as one of the most corrupt and reviled families in history?

In 10 Women Who Ruled the Renaissance, you will explore the lives of 10 extraordinary women who exemplified the spirit of the 1500s - an era dominated by adventure, discovery, and cross-cultural exchange.

The Berlin Wall is perhaps modern history’s most infamous edifice. The Berlin Wall: A World Divided is more than just the story of brick, concrete, and barbed wire. It’s the story of a city, a country, and a world - all of them divided. To hear how the Berlin Wall exemplified this division is to gain insights into a central tension of world history: between the human drive for freedom and the political will that would control and repress that drive.

It began in January with a celebrity marriage heard round the world and then progressed through a series of major political, social, and cultural milestones that would echo through the next several decades. The years following World War II were a time of increased wealth and confidence, years that saw the rise of a solid, increasingly powerful middle class in America.

The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

Whatever the form, whatever the treat - sugar drives us wild like nothing else. It’s lingered on our tongues for millennia and found its way into almost every household in the world. Alas, the history of sugar is far from sweet. Long before it was linked to America’s obesity epidemic, sugar was fueling the dark forces of exploitation, colonization, conquest, and slavery. More than just candy and cake, sugar has drastically altered the diets, cultures, and economies of the modern world. How can we love sugar while having a healthy relationship with its bittersweet history?

More self help than history.
And not great at either. Very repetitive. Uses the same experiences from Franklin’s life for multiple topics. Could have been better organized.

Self-Help? I guess ...
There was nothing wrong with this lecture series. It was interesting for its historical facts and despite the fact that the author/narrator used voices for the people he was quoting, I thought he was excellent. The material was well thought out and I liked the dry wit. On my last day of listening (today), something the author said rubbed me the wrong way. I could be alone in this but talking about the pandemic is kind of divisive in my mind, especially when talking about how you personally handled it. For me, I didn't want to leave my house; I have two elderly parents who are not in good health living with me. I still wear a mask in public. When the author boasted (my opinion) that he was on campus every day and how he didn't want his colleagues to see him working from home, that bothered me. Working from home was the responsible thing to do; I don't think it made him a better person for going to campus. That aside, I think he did an excellent job laying out the virtues Franklin had and the steps he took to better himself. I know I could personally benefit from practicing free will/will power, and I am going to try to do that with my life. Overall, if you're looking for ways to improve, I recommend it. Also if you're interested in the mind of Benjamin Franklin.

Not enough Benjamin Franklin
For a book that is supposed to be about Benjamin Franklin, it almost felt like Franklin was an afterthought. It kind of felt like the author put together and idea for a self-help/self-improvement book, and then decided to use Benjamin Franklin as the gimmick for it. As a result, the vast majority of the book doesn't really feel like it's that much about Franklin, it feels like it's just the author's self-help guidance. To that, it isn't necessarily poorly done, but it's also not particularly memorable and does little to stand out in a crowded field. The author's style is overly repetitive, and there are many books that do a much better job.
For someone interested in the general self-improvement and habit building side, "Atomic Habits", by James Clear is a much better selection than this one. for someone interested in living a more virtuous life, "How to Think Like a Roman Emperor", by Donald Robertson, is a similarly much better choice.
In the end, I would have trouble recommending this book/great course to most people.

a foot in both worlds
he discusses quite a bit about Franklin, but almost all of it his methodology and approach to life. And the way that led to Franklin success. also frames itself as a self-help book in the style of Franklin's autobiography. but it's neither an autobiography or a self-help book. It boldly straddles the line. interesting and enjoyable in its own right but left me looking for more on either side.

Practical Wisdom
I enjoyed this immensely. Great, simple advice and a history lesson too.
As someone who desires to be a better leader, I have read a lot of books and listened to a lot of podcasts. It's easy to get overwhelmed by theory. I enjoyed the step back to simpler times and guidance.
