Dr. Phil McGraw: Life Code

By: Dr. Phil McGraw

Narrated by: Dr. Phil McGraw

Length: 6 hrs and 49 mins

Publisher's summary

The rules for living in the real world have changed, because the world we live in has changed. Much of the conventional wisdom the last generation has passed on just doesn't apply like it once did. If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.

In Life Code: The New Rules for Winning in the Real World, six-time New York Times number-one best-selling author Dr. Phil McGraw abandons traditional thinking and tells you the ugly truth about the users, abusers, and overall "bad guys" we all have in our lives. He also reveals the secrets of how they think and how they get to and exploit you and those you love. You'll gain incredible insight into these negative people, which he refers to as BAITERs (Backstabbers, Abusers, Imposters, Takers, Exploiters, Reckless), and you'll gain the tools to protect yourself from their assaults. Dr. Phil gives you the "Evil Eight" identifiers so you can see them coming from a mile away, as well as their "Secret Playbook", which contains the "Nefarious 15" tactics they use to exploit you and take what is yours mentally, physically, socially, and professionally. Life Code then focuses on you and your playbook, which contains the "Sweet 16" tactics for winning in the real world.

Edgy, controversial and sometimes irreverent, Dr. Phil again abandons convention to prepare you to claim what you deserve and claim it now. You take flying lessons to learn to fly, swimming lessons to learn to swim, and singing lessons to learn to sing. So, why not take winning lessons to learn to win?

I love the straight up, no nonsince observation and clarification of how to use this code to help us and those we love... or even protect us against them.

The chapters on self-confidence were particularly empowering, encouraging a positive mindset. The parenting section provided actionable tips for effective communication and understanding children's needs.

Read it, so don't mention it anymore Dr. Phil...

I REALLY think this is a great book. I think EVERY woman (especially Southern) should read it, since we are taught to be polite over anything else. Be polite, but DO NOT GIVE THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. Very interesting points and I liked the spirit of the information. Highly recommended. Even though I think he mentions it WAY TOO much on his show.

Life Code- Best book ever!!

This was the best book I ever read! It really is a life guide, or code, for how to win in the real world. Way to go Doctor Phil!

Fear abound

Although true to a certain extent. People can and do take advantage of others. Never give out more than the friendship is worth. Good knowledge, descriptive visuals, concise.
