Resumen del Editor

The world is changing. Markets have crashed. Jobs have disappeared. Industries have been disrupted and are being remade before our eyes. Everything we aspired to for "security," everything we thought was "safe," no longer is: College. Employment. Retirement. Government. It’s all crumbling down.

In every part of society, the middlemen are being pushed out of the picture. No longer is someone coming to hire you, to invest in your company, to sign you, to pick you. It’s on you to make the most important decision in your life: Choose Yourself.

New tools and economic forces have emerged to make it possible for individuals to create art, make millions of dollars, and change the world without "help." More and more opportunities are rising out of the ashes of the broken system to generate real inward success (personal happiness and health) and outward success (fulfilling work and wealth).

This audiobook will teach you to do just that. With dozens of case studies, interviews and examples - including the author, investor and entrepreneur James Altucher's own heartbreaking and inspiring story - Choose Yourself illuminates your personal path to building a bright, new world out of the wreckage of the old.

Pure honesty

This book is really about being healthy in all realms and being a honest person. I love the heavy dose of reality.

Insightful, serious and witty

I listened to the book at the suggestion of a great colleague and glad I did. Altucher comes across sincere, knowledgable, experienced and is able to connect with listeners like he is having a conversation with you. I thought the narrating was excellent, with interludes and interesting stories. Highly recommended.

Choose To Listen!

This was a great listen thanks to the narration by James.

I’ve known about the book for a couple of years and I’m glad I gave it a listen.

Good book

Good book to listen too while driving. Doesn't require full attention which I like. You can really feel the passion in the authors voice. That's why audiobooks narrated by the author will always be my preference. (For non fiction)

Read it. It's good.

I listen to a lot of motivational books of this sort. This one has similarities with many others of its type. As a dedicated listener of audiobooks, at first I was not used to how he read the book but soon came to really enjoyed it. In fact, the personal touch made me think most books of this type should be read by the author. I found this book entertaining and would recommend it to a friend. Although not all of the concepts are new, they are worth hearing again.

Hilarious. and Extremely Insightful.

James Altucher, you're the best of our breed!

This guy, if you're just getting to learn him like I am, he'll keep you in stiches. Super smart guy, and not in math, he apparently sucks at math - me , too., but in many other areas and he's so worth listening to.

I love this.

Rambly in a good way.

I'm not a hard core reader of James, and this is my first of his books to read. Just as what I've picked up from his posts on Facebook and Quora. I found him to be authentic, with simple but useful tips. You may have heard them before, but the context of using them to break free of pay-your-dues-to-be-chosen living is fresh. Thanks, James!

Awesome

Loved it!
Was a breath of fresh air 😊
🗒Could not help but to take note.
💚This has had a very positive effect on me.
Highly recommended! Thank you James!
I will most definitely listen again 😁

Interesting listen

This book was not quite what I was expecting, which was more along the lines why and how one should be an entrepreneur. It is more James's reflections on his failures and how he bounced back to succeed. There is a lot of anecdotal advice, but it all mainly comes back to his daily practice concept. In this respect, I do feel it is a little light on actionable tactics. I appreciate his honesty, but the casual approach may not work for some. I'm giving some benefit of the doubt, because I think the author has great intentions, just the execution was not incredibly thorough.

Thought provoking and entertaining!

I loved this book. It helped me take a long look at my current priorities.
