Radical Honesty: How to Transform Your Life by Telling the Truth

De: Brad Blanton

Narrado por: Brad Blanton

The first edition of Radical Honesty became a nationwide best seller in 1995 because it was not a kinder, gentler self-help book. It was a shocker! In it, Dr. Brad Blanton, a psychotherapist and expert on stress management, explored the myths, superstitions and lies by which we all live. And this newly revised edition is even worse!

Blanton shows us how stress comes not from the environment, but from the self-built jail of the mind. What keeps us in our self-built jails is lying.

"We all lie like hell," Dr. Blanton says. "It wears us out...it is the major source of all human stress. It kills us." Not telling our friends, lovers, spouses, or bosses about what we do, feel, or think keeps us locked in that mind jail. The way out is to get good at telling the truth, and Dr. Blanton provides the tools we can use to escape from that jail of the mind. This book is the cake with the file in it.

In Radical Honesty, Dr. Blanton coaches us on how to have lives that work, how to have relationships that are alive and passionate, and how to create intimacy where none exists. As we have been taught by the philosophical and spiritual sources of our culture for thousands of years, from Plato to Nietzsche, from the Bible to Emerson, the truth shall set you free.

Are you kidding me!

one of my favorite books, No Bullshit.
that's all I want to say, but this thing is making write 25 character and 15 words. No Bullshit. No time wasted.

life altering

amazing enligtenment, crazy, wild! although the recording is somewhat amateur with obvious cuts and breaks, I will listen to this many times over!

Radical indeed

A lot of true and mind-boggling content. But how does this relate to the teachings of Eckart Tolle?

Radically Honest Review

Dang it Bradley! Boy you stuttering like a mf!! No edits?? This should marked as comedy. Great book though 10/10

Interesting stories

I liked the stories he told, and some relationship honesty tips. Didn’t love all the political stuff at the end, I don’t think it holds up.

Technical Issues too distracting!!!

I can not believe you let this book out to the public. The information was as expected but the messy cuts and the distracting change of mic or location or both. This is a production nightmare. I would be ashamed of this production. There is actually a take two within the first hour that I had to forward through. Mr Blanton should re-read this in a professional setting for both his books sake and Audibles sake. I will not be asking for my credit back but I can not recommend this audio book to anyone I know.

Book doesn't match up and too many audio cut ins

It's my first audible and I'm reading the book off my kindle (both or which is purchased and downloaded at the same time). I'm into Chapter 5 and already noticed several moments where I got lost since the text and audible didn't synch up. It's as though one is a different version of the other but I have the latest copies of each.

I listen to 1.5x speed so any changes in audio quality could be amplified. There were many moments where audio was spliced in. The speaker may had used a different audio equipment or recording situations. Default audio was clear and good; spliced in parts had static in the background and audio volumes slightly different. If you can 'see' pass these differences, then there's nothing wrong. I'm halfway through the book.

Life changing book

In Radical Honesty, psychology and spirituality meet each other. I personally apply the book to my life, since the first week I see the massive change in my life and my view of the world has changed forever.
However, the narration wasn't clear and performed weakly.

Thought provoking and you get the value out of this book despite the poor sound quality at times

Radical recommendations that for me needs a bit of digest but the core message is good. Annoying disturbances on recording but there are bigger issues in life and I haven’t found the routine to read myself so was happy that I listened this book.

Radical indeed

A few golden nuggets I can put in my pocket but I will not follow his advice in reference to giving this book to people I know.
