The Art of Non-Conformity

Set Your Own Rules, Live the Life You Want, and Change the World

By: Chris Guillebeau

Narrated by: Dan John Miller

If you've ever thought, "There must be more to life than this," The Art of Non-Conformity is for you. Based on Chris Guillebeau's popular online manifesto "A Brief Guide to World Domination," The Art of Non-Conformity defies common assumptions about life and work while arming you with the tools to live differently. You'll discover how to live on your own terms by exploring creative self-employment, radical goal-setting, contrarian travel, and embracing life as a constant adventure. Inspired and guided by Chris's own story and those of others who have pursued unconventional lives, you can devise your own plan for world domination---and make the world a better place at the same time.

Critic reviews

"Chris Guillebeau is the Indiana Jones of career experts." (Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project)

great book!

Cant wait to listen to it again! Very inspiring and a great book. Would highly recommend.

Game Changing Read

It sounds cliche to say this book changed my life, but it did. It set me on an unconventional path to a much more fulfilling life. I have reread it several times now, and each read opens up a new insight. Chris Guillebeau's entire canon is practical and actionable, I have read all but one.

Good Partner to 4 hr work week

If you liked the four hour work week, you will like this book also. The tone and narrator are much friendlier than in the four hour work week. There are less how-to examples, but more theory and positive messages. Just like 4 hour work week, it will re-set the way you think about your career and life. There is a stronger "give back" message in this book as well. I am a small business owner that spends all my time trying to get my business to run without me! I get closer every day, but not there yet. Reading books like this one reminds me of my purpose.

Golden perspectives for any entrepreneur or anyone wanting to get more independent

I often think when getting a new book on Audible, is this for me? How will it benefit me? Well this is a book that will have a key for everyone. Although, not one of my favorites, I do promise you this book made an impact on me and gave me some new ways of thinking. This is a solid book to add to your arsenal. Maybe it will give you the final push that you need that gets you to your next level in life. You can’t go wrong with it at all.

Another Self-Help Book

I liked the book, but I didn’t learn anything new. I wish there were actionable steps. There seems to be a lack in this niche.
