Bunch of self-help garbage.

you could probably listen to a lot of these for free on youtube brah, also shakespeare on audiobook? that must be difficult, i have his hardcover complete works though have only sampled The Tempest but even for that i needed to keep looking up definitions of old words (found conveniently at the bottom of the page of the edition i have), how is shakespeare on audiobook?

[bananabucket]

why buy the complete works of Shakespeare when you can just have infinite monkeys type it for you

[Ravishing_Rick]

it's pretty good. the audio can get a little spotty due to dramatization but so far I like a lot of his works.

btw if you like audiobooks you NEED to check out Graphic Audio, they are the highest tier quality audibooks imo

they are marketed as a "movie in your mind"

I'd recommend Sapiens and Homo Deus By Yuval Harari the most

I don't want to chit on OP.

But here's a secret guys - The vast vast majority of those books, especially the self help / economic / business / investing ones are total and complete horsechit specifically targeted toward losers.

THEY are the ones making the money selling you fortune cookie-tier platitudes. None of it's going to help you improve your life, and be CEO 10k/day.

But enjoy I guess *shurg*

OP I listened to David Goggins' "Can't Hurt Me" audiobook. That's a good one if you like motivational stuff

[Hmatt330]

Have you retained a lot of it; do you feel smarter now?

[Hmatt330]

Any good takeaways from Sapiens, Homo Deus?

Sapiens was good, you learn a bit about how humans are really just animals, and as a result, a little bit about the instincts we have. I'm still getting through the last third.

In some was it made me feel insignificant, as we are a blip in a long line of humanity that has preceded and will succeed us. It's a good perspective to have, as long as you're cautious of nihilistic beliefs, and still give your life significance.
