Do you sabotage your own happiness and success? Are you struggling to make sense of yourself? Do your emotions sometimes dictate your life?

The Chimp Paradox is an incredibly powerful mind management model that can help you become a happy, confident, healthier and more successful person. Prof Steve Peters explains the struggle that takes place within your mind and then shows how to apply this understanding to every area of your life so you can:

• Recognise how your mind is working.
• Understand and manage your emotions and thoughts.
• Manage yourself and become the person you would like to be.

The Chimp Mind Management Model is based on scientific facts and principles, which have been simplified into a workable model for easy use. It will help you to develop yourself and give you the skills, for example, to remove anxiety, have confidence and choose your emotions. The audiobook will do this by giving you an understanding of the way in which your mind works and how you can manage it. It will also help you to identify what is holding you back or preventing you from having a happier and more successful life.

Each chapter explains different aspects of how you function and highlights key facts for you to understand. There are also exercises for you to work with. By undertaking these exercises you will see immediate improvements in your daily living and, over time, you will develop emotional skills and practical habits that will help you to become the person that you want to be, and live the life that you want to live.

Genuine,

Every human being should listen to this! It's genius 👌 I've learned so much about how the brain is working. Thank you!

Eye opening listening

I loved this audiobook as it gives me specific examples that makes you think on your personal planets of success and happiness. Our emotional and logical self are the most conflicting and hand by hand mechanisms. Learning more about them and how to manage is only useful!

Fascinating, extremely intelligent.

Very down to earth practical approach! Can be a live changer! Don't miss it and you will see the change in every day.

Absolutely must read!

Any additional comments?

I never write reviews. I only read them. However, this time I have to write this down. This book is fabulous.I have read quite some books on negotiations and how the mind works. This one beats them all If you like pratical books and not so much academic analyses, this one would fit for you.I strongly recommend this book. Read this, and you will much better understand yourself and the people surrouding you. Have fun, Patrick from The Netherlands.

What did you love best about The Chimp Paradox?

Written by the chap credited with helping the UK cycling team win tens of medals over the last eight years. There is something for everybody who listens..Really solid tips and techniques to manage one's demons.. Or chimps! Great advice on my personal challenge of distraction and people pleasing... And, while I listened, I thought great advice for my friend with anxiety, my other friend with depression and my friend struggling with addiction. And even an explanation and tips on managing road rage and other outbursts of fury...Want to buy copies for all I know, and I don't remember ever saying that before

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Chimp Paradox?

Too many to relate

What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?

Success in life is a question of understanding how our brain chimp behaves and how to manage it.

Amazingly eye opening!

Prof has written and read aloud a great book, made many concepts seem easy to grasp. Which coming from me means a lot, I find most concepts hard to understand! I would recommend everybody read or listen to this many times it’s changed my life.

welcome to my jungle

some times you come accross a book and you say i wish all my friend and family would read it, this is one like this.
it does help to anderstand your innerself and put everything into perspective.

well written and practical

The book starts off at a fast pace and gets into the ideas quickly. It took me almost half the book to first start processing all the ideas. I will have to listen to it again to absorb more and get a more balanced idea of the book

Very Good Book!

They should use this as a set work book at school so that children can emerge with knowledge and wisdom much more than the average person.

Very good and enjoyable read

From all the "self-help" I have read so far, this is certainly the one that we can relate to. We all allow the chimps to rule our lives from time to time. Now that they have been identified once understanding of how to manage the chimps can only be of huge benefit to ourselves. The narrator has a bit of a monotonous voice but I still found him intriguing rather than annoying. I love his accent and his overall performance. Definitely a book I will recommended
