Summary

Richard Bandler, co-creator of NLP and the man who taught and trained Paul McKenna, joins forces with Alessio Roberti and Owen Fitzpatrick once again to give you the tools to change your life.

Richard Bandler – the world-renowned co-creator of NLP who has helped millions around the world change their lives for the better – has teamed up once again with Italian NLP Master Trainer Alessio and co-founder of the Irish Institute of NLP Owen, to offer a simple yet engaging introduction to the groundbreaking ideas of NLP.

Written in the form of a fable, How To Take Charge Of Your Life is the prequel to The Ultimate Introduction to NLP. Once again Bandler invites readers into his workshops and illustrates the theories and techniques he has spent years developing.

Based around a three-day introductory course, this book will give you the tools you need to start making an effective change today. From explaining the importance of self-belief and how to change beliefs, to how to control your emotions and negative thinking, and how to create the life you want.

This is an easy-to-read and inspiring account that readers can turn to time and again.

Better than expected

The story telling helped me to understand better instead of instructional book of do and donts.

Superb!

First time hearing an audiobook, and loved how it seemed as I was watching a movie! Very well read and interpreted by Owen. Not to mention the content of it, which gave insights and tips to make improvements in our lives. I absolutely recommend this to everyone.

Captivating and inspiring

The content in this audio book is very well delivered. I love the concept of teaching NLP within a story. It made learning about NLP interesting and enjoyable and the story itself was very relatable. The techniques taught are also really easy to follow and inspire me to take action on them. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to find a way of thinking differently about negative thoughts and limiting beliefs.

Could be better

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No . This is obviously supposed to be an important topic but infusing the story with some kind of banal love interest and descriptions of what people are wearing is just tedious and irritating. I also consider referring to someone as a gorilla is totally unacceptable and unprofessional . Some of the examples given were unorthodox too and slightly dubious.

What will your next listen be?

Mindful meditation

Did Owen Fitzpatrick do a good job differentiating each of the characters? How?

Vaguely

Could you see How to Take Charge of Your Life: The User's Guide to NLP being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

Definitely not

Any additional comments?

It would have been better if they just stuck to the theory and not bothered with the badly written banal story.

Good book as it's practical.

Good book. Has a human aspect Joe. Not all jargonese. You journey with Joe and using Dr Richard Bandler's techniques.
