A book that will change how you think and transform how you live.Forget everything you thought you knew about how to motivate people – at work, at school, at home. It is wrong. As Daniel H. Pink explains in his paradigm-shattering book Drive, the secret to high performance and satisfaction in today’s world is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and the world.

Not quite as straight forward
Revisado: 04-06-15
Where does Drive rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
In the middle for information
Who was your favorite character and why?
no characters
How did the narrator detract from the book?
narration was good
What did you learn from Drive that you would use in your daily life?
sadly the book repeated itself a lot, and the main facts don't weigh up in light of better understanding of simple behavioural psychology
Any additional comments?
Internal and external motivation sound great but at the heart they are simple conditioned behaviours - not the conclusion the book came to

Intuition is not some magical property that arises unbidden from the depths of our mind. It is a product of long hours and intelligent design, of meaningful work environments, and particular rules and principles. This audiobook shows us how we can hone our instinctive ability to know in an instant, helping us to bring out the best in our thinking and become better decision-makers in our homes, offices, and in everyday life.

Would you listen to Blink again? Why?
Another book where Malcolm delves into the intricacies of a single topic. Very well read by the author.

Thanks to Dale Carnegie’s classic work of practical advice, more than six million people have already discovered happier, more fulfilling lives. How to Stop Worrying and Start Living has also never been more relevant—particularly since it has been updated for the first time in forty years.

Good first half to approaching worries in life
Revisado: 06-20-14
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Solid principles to manage worries. Second half becomes a little too reliant on prayer to solve problems in my opinion.
Would you be willing to try another book from Dale Carnegie? Why or why not?
Yes, he is very forthright in his view that if the book isn't helping then stop reading it. He has made the book to be used as a reference and as such it is useful. This would have benefitted from being broken down into chapters on the audio file as without having to stop and bookmark the start of every chapter it is nigh on impossible to go back and review chapters.
Any additional comments?
Needed to be broken into individual chapters for ease of reference when listening
