About this listen

"Tell me how a person judges his or her self-esteem", says pioneering psychologist Nathaniel Branden, "and I will tell you how that person operates at work, in love, in sex, in parenting, in every important aspect of existence - and how high he or she is likely to rise. The reputation you have with yourself - your self-esteem - is the single most important factor for a fulfilling life."

  • How to grow in self-confidence and self-respect
  • How to nurture self-esteem in children
  • How to break free of guilt and fear of others’ disapproval
  • How to honor the self - the ethics of rational self-interest

Nathaniel Branden‘s pioneering work in the field of self-esteem over seven decades contributed to the evolution of the concept from obscurity to greater levels of clarity and acceptance. He wrote nearly 20 books on self-esteem, including such influential works as The Psychology of Self-Esteem, How to Raise Your Self-Esteem, The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem, and The Art of Living Consciously. In addition to his extensive work as a writer, Branden worked as a lecturer, therapist, and corporate consultant specializing in assisting modern businesses employ the principles of self-esteem to achieve greater levels of success. He also the founded The Branden Institute for Self-Esteem, a counseling center in Los Angeles, California. He died in 2014.

Lots of theory, not much "how to"

Only the last 2 chapters give actual advice on how to improve your own self-esteem. The rest is all theory on how self-esteem works and is built in children. Not all bad but not what I expected.

a lot of good bits

some very good info. reads like a story rather than cheesy self-help. You can find similar in his other books. psychology of self esteem etc. but a keeper.

i love Nathaniel Branden

I always love books read by the author. Nathaniel's message is powerful, if everyone knew this the world would be different!
listening to him has been very healing, helped me so much to grow and as a model of self esteem and what good self esteem means! I will surely listen to it many times! I totally recommend this! thank you!

Difficult to listen to and no + value to my life

I struggled to listen to this in two different moment of my life, thinking that if I just push through I will get to golden part. I found no such golden part that would bring more awareness in my life or solutions. Would not recommend.

Ok book, poor performance

the book is worth a read but the audio is terrible. the sound quality is poor, there are random bits of music here and there, and overall it has a 90s feel to it.
