Acerca de esta escucha
This effortless and unapologetic approach to self-promotion will manage your anxiety and allow you to champion yourself.
Does talking about your accomplishments feel scary or icky because you're worried people will think you're "obnoxious"?
Does it feel more natural to "put your head down and do the work"?
Are you tired of watching the loudest people in your industry get disproportionate praise and rewards?
If you answered "Yes" to any of the above, you might be self-sabotaging. You need to learn to brag better. Meredith Fineman has built a career working with "The Qualified Quiet": smart people who struggle to talk about themselves and thus go underestimated or unrecognized. Now, she shares the surefire and anxiety-proof strategies that have helped her clients effectively communicate their achievements and skill sets to others.
Bragging better doesn't require false bravado, talking over people, or pretending to be more qualified than you are. Instead, Fineman advocates finding quiet confidence in your opinions, abilities, and background and then turning up the volume.
In this audiobook, you will learn the career-changing tools she's developed over the past decade that make bragging feel easy, including:
- Get remembered by focusing your personal brand and voice on key adjectives (like "effective, subtle, and edgy").
- Practice explaining what you do in simple, sticky terms to earn respect and recognition from the public and people at work.
- Eliminate words that undermine your work and find better ones - like your bio saying you're "trying" or "attempting" to do something instead that you are doing it.
If you're ready to begin bragging better - to start telling the truth about your accomplishments with grace and confidence - this audiobook is for you.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Even on days when we get a lot done, the thing left undone can leave us feeling guilty, anxious, or disappointed.

Historia
We all want to feel less anxiety, guilt, anger, and sadness. We want to obsess less and be less lonely, and free ourselves from our demons, compulsive habits, and stress. But as humans (unlike rocks), we experience all of these. And, paradoxically, trying to avoid and control them only makes things worse. Having struggled with serious mental illness for many years himself, Mark Freeman has become a dedicated mental-health advocate and coach. He makes the case that instead of trying to feel less and avoid pain and stress, we need to build emotional fitness, especially our capacity for strength, balance, and focus.

In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to 'bad people'" (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent meaningful cross-racial dialogue.

Every day, we’re bombarded with pressure to be positive.

Even when faced with illness, loss, breakups, and other challenges, there’s little space for talking about our real feelings—and processing them so that we can feel better and move forward.

Let’s face it: Recent years have been tough on optimists. Hopes that the Internet might bring people together have been crushed by the ills of social media. Is there a way back? As head of TED, Chris Anderson has had a ringside view of the world’s boldest thinkers sharing their most uplifting ideas. Inspired by them, he believes that it’s within our grasp to turn outrage back into optimism. It all comes down to reimagining one of the most fundamental human virtues: generosity. What if generosity could become infectious generosity?

Just as sturdy scaffolding is necessary when erecting a building and will come down when the structure grows stable, good parenting provides children with steady and warm emotional nourishment on the path toward independence. Never-ending parental problem-solving and involvement can have the opposite effect, enabling fragility and anxiety over time.

Too much woman victim mindset
Good book but too much assumptions that women are the only ones having challenges. 75% content is talking about how women have it hard. Funnily enough I face the exact challenges, had the exact same experiences and parenting. Maybe the audience is just women.

The author wants you to be a victim
Good or bad. Idk. I enjoyed it and in the opposite of the ya rv et audience which is sad it has one when I opened I assumed it would be general advice on talking through your wins, some times reads like the author lost material and went into the DEI playbook to get things to right about.

Each chapter has great examples and builds on the last. The last chapter summarizes the whole books with excellent reasons to uplift yourself and others. I would highly recommend this books to everyone young and old.

Good learning and perspective. The narrator kept my interest in learning more. Language was a little sharp at times and was a turnoff.

Decent material. No need for the swearing.
I expect most readers will find some useful takeaways. It's a shame that someone who is supposed to be a good communicator feels the need to resort to occasionally dropping swear words for no reason.

A very motivating and helpful book
I learned a lot from this book. It really changed the way I think about the importance of speaking up. The author provides really helpful insights from her experience as a publicist. The fact that she is vulnerable and shares so many stories about when she messed up helped me feel better about my mistakes and feel less afraid about trying, failing, and trying again. I'm an academic and, when it comes to public writing, I often think there is someone more established who can say it with more impact than I can. This book helped me unlearn that! I finished the book on Sunday and I wrote my first op ed this week! As a Black woman, I appreciated the fact that the author talks about race and gender in the book. I was also very happy to see so much discussion of disability, which is really rare.
There were some things about the book that bothered me, but they didn't overshadow everything it offered:
1) I wish the author made clear that the book is for professionals and people who want to have a significant public voice. It's fine to have a book that is directed at a specific audience but if you don't say it, it seems like you're suggesting that the book is for everyone, which it is not. Everyone is not upper middle class. The effect is that a person who does not have a professional career or public ambitions will try to listen to it and be understandably annoyed by all of the references to being on TV and "moving from 6 figures to 7 figures. " That said, there are a lot of skills here that are useful to everyone, but they would have to be packaged differently.
2) While I appreciate the discussion of race, it was limited to a diversity and inclusion framework. Diversity and Inclusion are not racial justice. Similarly, she writes that women and POC have a long way to go to catch up. An underlying assumption in the writing is that whites and men will always dominate. The problem isn't that we need to catch up. The problem is that we need systemic social change. Of course, this is not a book about making systemic social change. But, it is irritating when the author suggests that by bragging better, we can get our voices heard, and then all would be well. That is simply not the case.
