How to Live

27 Conflicting Answers and One Weird Conclusion

De: Derek Sivers

Narrado por: Derek Sivers

Not quite non-fiction, not quite self-help. It’s a work of art about conflicting philosophies.

Many books believe they know how you should live. But each book disagrees with the next. In How to Live, each chapter believes it knows how you should live. And each chapter disagrees with the next.

One chapter makes a compelling argument for why you should be completely independent, keeping all options open. The next chapter argues why you should commit to one career, one place, and one person.

One chapter persuades you to be fully present, and experience each moment. The next, to delay gratification and invest for the future.

Which one is right? Which does the author believe? All of them. It's a philosophy of conflicting philosophies.

A very unique and thought-provoking book. Meant for reflection as much as instruction.

An incredibly succinct audiobook of profound insights. No philosophers are quoted. No -isms are named. Only actionable directives. The end result feels more like poetry than prose.

if you get it you get it

everything in this book is a contradiction and that's the point. great presentation of the ends of a bell curve that is called life

Loved it

Love how Derek Sivers puts everything in a concise and elegant way. Loved the last chapter especially!

Unconventional ways of living that don’t seem so unconventional anymore after listening.

Very thought provoking. Easy to listen and follow. No wasted words or fluff. It made me think about my own life, decisions and the world. I recommend this book to everyone.

Thought provoking

Challenges you - makes you think. Compels you to think about your life in reverse. Listen to it multiple times for the best effect.

Very much enjoyed. Lots of food for thought! Derek does at great narration, it's almost like you are having an actual conversation rather than just the basic audio book vibe.
