Do you sabotage your own happiness and success? Are you struggling to make sense of yourself? Do your emotions sometimes dictate your life?

The Chimp Paradox is an incredibly powerful mind management model that can help you become a happy, confident, healthier and more successful person.

- Understand and manage your emotions and thoughts
- Manage yourself and become the person you would like to be

The Chimp Mind Management Model is based on scientific facts and principles, which have been simplified into a workable model for easy use. It will help you to develop yourself and give you the skills, for example, to remove anxiety, have confidence and choose your emotions. The book will do this by giving you an understanding of the way in which your mind works and how you can manage it. It will also help you to identify what is holding you back or preventing you from having a happier and more successful life.

Each chapter explains different aspects of how you function and highlights key facts for you to understand. There are also exercises for you to work with. By undertaking these exercises you will see immediate improvements in your daily living and, over time, you will develop emotional skills and practical habits that will help you to become the person that you want to be, and live the life that you want to live.

I read a snapshot of this book on an app that summarizes books. Found it interesting enough I bought it. The material for managing yourself mentally is interesting enough. However also being mostly left handed / right brain dominate this book mixes information and analogies that make it in my opinion easy to remember and easily relatable.

As a recreational cyclist of 50 years or so and an amateur racer for the past 30 years and a follower of pro cycling, I had read frequent references to chimps in relation to the elite athletes of British Cycling. I had also read of Dr Steve Peters who works with British Cycling and the Sky Procycling Team. I also knew that his work with the athletes had been extremely successful in helping them win a string of Olympic Gold Medals in Beijing 2008.

I was therefore curious as to what the fuss was about. This book neatly and clearly sums up the concepts applied by the author in his work. His thesis is that we all have 3 parts to our brain, a Chimp who works on emotion and sees things in black and white and a Human who is calm, sensible and logical. Both struggle for control and often the Chimp wins and make us do things in sport and everyday life that we might regret. The Chimp and the Human program the third part of our brain which is the Computer. In other words the part that allows us (amongst other things) to ride a bike, drive a car, and behave in a reasonable manner towards our fellow humans.

Using the concepts and ideas in the book, one can learn how to manage the Chimp to get the best out of sport, work and life. It also teaches us how to recognize and work around other people's Chimps.

I found this book gave me a great insight into the way I used to react to sporting, work and general life situations. It alerted me to the existence of my Chimp and gave me some tools to manage it.

The book is an excellent tool for planning sporting objectives.

Don't expect this book to give you the answers to life's problems but it will certainly give you the tools to help you deal with them.

Highly recommended

Seriously enjoyed this book. The concept of having a chimp brain was easy to conceive (and believe). As a writer myself I'd really like to ask the author where the muse fits into all of this. Is the muse chimp? Human? An amalgamation of all the brain? This book is easy to follow even for those of us cripplingly right-brained readers. My only problem with the book was the ebook version--the diagrams are about impossible to make out. I'm fixing that by ordering the paperback too. It's the kind of book I like to revisit.

Anyway, thanks, Steve Peters, for your concept of the brain. I think it will do me good, well, except for the occasional reference, as in, "Oh! Yes, my chimp would love a double cheeseburger!" spoken as a now fallen part-time vegetarian to a family that won't soon let me forget it.

I'm not into self help books, but this one is a readable explanation of how the parts of your mind work together or against each other and gives tactics on where to spend your energy to get your mind in order. The author uses readable language, and understandable concepts to explain how it works.

While not the authorial intent, if you are a Christian, this is a nuts and bolts explanation of what Paul is talking about in the latter part of Romans 7. This is where Paul describes his two selves, the one that does what he wants to do (the human), and the one that does stupid stuff despite his best efforts (the chimp). I suspect there are parallels in other religious traditions and would be interested in their writings on the topic.

I write on the same subject matter, but I've decided that this book will be my recommended "course book" to explain in a vivid and very effective manner how the brain works and then how to work it. I will use this book for this essential piece that helps build what I call "The Only Sure Path To The Greatest Life" and for my upcoming book called, tentatively, Smart (and easy) Self Control.

It is very understandable, very usable, and excellently written.

I've read many, many, many books on the brain, emotions, behaviors, but I would say this is one of the best overall and, I think, the best for most people to read and learn from - and to implement from. I've taken the liberty on my site of doing an overview chart of the functions and characteristics of these three brains, which I think will help people to understand better how the pieces fit together.

I highly recommend this book to everyone who needs to learn how the brain operates and how to operate it - which should be every human on the planet.

Some very good insights and ideas. Mostly promoting replacing negative thoughts with effective "self talk" to improve your life. My only criticism is that the author takes FOREVER to get to the point. Way, way too much redundant information. The book could be 1/4 the length and get the point across much sooner.

5.0 de 5 estrellas Wirklich empfehlenswertes Buch
Calificado en Alemania el 15 de junio de 2023
Ich hatte das Buch durch Pinterest entdeckt und dachte mir, da ich momentan an mir selbst arbeiten möchte, wäre das ein guter Schritt. Viel konnte man nicht durch den Text auf dem Hinterblatg erfahren aber trotz dessen war ich sehr gespannt. Ich wurde wirklich sehr positiv überrascht von dem Buch. Es lehrte mir viel über mich selbst, über andere und die Beziehungen zu anderen Personen. Ich kann dieses Buch nur weiterempfehlen für jeden, der sich mal auf einer ganz anderen Ebene kennenlernen möchte. Stand jetzt habe ich mir auch vorgenommen das Buch noch mindestens ein weiteres Mal zu lesen
