Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

When you let go, you live intuitively. Everything flows, because you are no longer attached to things being a certain way, to being a certain person or always being right. What a relief. The irony is that when you feel stuck in any area of your life - career, relationships, purpose, health or money - letting go can seem very hard. You cling on for dear life just at the moment you need to take the leap. In The Power of Letting Go, John Purkiss explains why we should let go and how we can do it, using proven techniques to make things happen.

Relatable and practical for transforming my life
Excellent insight, very relatable for me. I enjoyed the breakdown of how certain belief systems in religion messes up a child's self esteem. Also enjoyed the breakdown of the treatment from parents and teachers that effect self esteem.
Also found the stem sentence exercises very useful in bringing transformation in my life.

Not sure if it's just me being burnt out by too many self development books, but this never grabbed me and took me ages to finish.
If you're not engaged and there are large gaps in your listening you're probably not going to get much from any book, so I'll put this one down to "just me".

Not life changing, but makes a lot of sense.
The best takeaway from this book for me was explaining how to compliment, reward or reprimand the actions of our children instead of the children themselves. This makes so much sense and explains a lot of what I'm seeing with my own children going through school with teachers and systems that don't build self esteem no matter how hard they try.

Spend your money on a book that offers you a way or ways to improve your self esteem. This book simply explains why yours is low.
if that's what you want to know, then this is a good book. Note how many books this author has written on this topic......

Look Elsewhere
I barely made it halfway through this audiobook and couldn't take any more. Maybe it is just personal taste, but I found it very longwinded and repetitive. When I reached the part where the author started rambling on about his obsessive relationship with Ayn Rand, I knew this wasn't the tape for me. On a positive note, this tape did cause me to look elsewhere, and I eventually ended up purchasing "Ten Days to Self Esteem" (workbook, not audio) by Dr. David Burns. I recommend this workbook highly, as I am already seeing great improvements in my mood and self esteem. I hope this helps.

Do not recommend
Really regret this purchase. Content was so dry that it was difficult to pay attention. I found out in 2nd to last chapter the author had committed infidelity and felt as if I had wasted so much time listening to anything he had to say. Glad he learned something from it but I have no respect for that and definitely wish I had saved my money!

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Someone who is having trouble getting to sleep - believe me this will help!!!
Any additional comments?
Very boring. The narration was dull but the actual script he had to work with was so boring! ok i did get a few things from it but generally this was no help at all. It was written like it was for a child, not an adult with actual self-esteem issues. Waste of money! :(

Wasn't real crazy about this book. There may have been a few good suggestions in this book, however overall the book was of very little use. The best part of the book was the last chapter. Other than that I can't say I would recommend this book.

Very bad, no help at all, made me feel worse.
What was most disappointing about Dr. Nathaniel Branden’s story?
It was so old fashioned. Full of advice that is now PROVEN to be nonsense and unhelpful, even harmful at times.
What didn’t you like about Dr. Nathaniel Branden’s performance?
Narration was ok I guess, bit dull tho.
Any additional comments?
Not happy at all. Maybe this book was good years ago, but times have changes. It was horribly old fashioned and completely irrelevant. It made me feel worse if anything.
Much better books out there than this.

Totally bored me, so old fashioned and horrible
What would have made The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem better?
Being written more recently. So much of the advice is out of date and has been proven to be nonsense these days.
What was most disappointing about Dr. Nathaniel Branden’s story?
I just found it incredibly dull, it put me to sleep.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Very boring, made me want to fall asleep.
Any additional comments?
I really found this was no help at all. It took me 3 attempts to make it through the whole book, but it did make me want to fall asleep rather than help with my esteem issues!

Old fashioned
Any additional comments?
It was written many years ago and the author even passed away a few years ago, so you need to understand this is very very old fashioned and therefore mostly outdated advice.
Avoid.

I didn't like it.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I didn't like it. I wanted help with self esteem issues but instead i appear to have got a book written many many years ago. It felt very out of date and out of touch with the world how it is today.

DULL.
Would you try another book written by Dr. Nathaniel Branden or narrated by Dr. Nathaniel Branden?
Never again. Not unless I want to go to sleep.
Would you be willing to try another one of Dr. Nathaniel Branden’s performances?
NO.
You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Not much. I guess i picked up a few points, but most of it is just repeating stuff you have all read on the internet. In a very dull tone.
Any additional comments?
Very boring, Sorry, I have to be honest, i thought it was terrible and did nothing at all to help me with my esteem and confidence issues.

Old fashioned nonsense!
Would you try another book written by Dr. Nathaniel Branden or narrated by Dr. Nathaniel Branden?
NO.
Any additional comments?
Old fashioned nonsense. Maybe in 1976, this book made sense but not in 2016. The world has changed and so to has the understanding of self-esteem. Horrible book, very patronising and offered me no hope whatsoever. Not for me.

Taken advantage of often or act fake? Read this
What did you like most about The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem?
In depth discussion of why people doubt themselves. A bit heavy for a first read if you're finally taking a step to change your life. Come back after the second or third book, then it's pure magic (Steve Peter's chimp management and Paul Mcgee's Self Confidence are good starters the Brene Brown's The Gift of Imperfection). Awful audio though but it's worth it.
What other book might you compare The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem to, and why?
Paul Mcgee Self confidence, Steve Peter's Chimp management.
Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Dr. Nathaniel Branden?
Andrew Macmillan
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
It's talk on self acceptance and self assertion are nothing short of life changing. Self responsibility seems helpful for those who feel they don't have a habit on life, but if you're buying the book for you, i'm guessing you're aware that you "can" change your life.
Any additional comments?
If you have self confidence issues, and have actively been trying to address it buy reading and making life changes this is can be final nail in the coffin for your self doubt and lack of self worth. Along with it's much long awaited burial ceremony.

A classic on its subject
This is a clear exposition of Dr Branden's views on self-esteem (what it is, what is isn't, how to develop it, how to lose it and how to try and get it back) set out in a logical structure and well read (by the american author). More an exposition of the subject than a self-help guide, it is nonetheless packed with insights and an absorbing listen. Far from the usual run-of-the-mill, insubstantial single-note self-help stuff available from well-meaning non-experts, this material is dense enough to warrant re-listening (probably several times). (The author's other audio-book, 'The Psychology of Self-Esteem' is more theoretical and slighly less accessible - I would suggest starting with The Six Pillars, and then trying The Psychology if you want to pursue the subject.) Recommended.
