Review 1: The Alter Ego Effect audiobook by C. Mattiola
Incredible
This book is incredible. I read a lot, at least a book a week, and this one is right up there with the best.
It will show you a simple way to improve your performance in areas of your life that matter most.
*It wraps up so many important concepts into a simple package anyone can understand and get value from.
*Its actionable. I’m already seeing results.
*Best of all… its fun. The stories, the exercises, and the whole entire concept is fun. Haven’t enjoyed a book this much in a while.
Get it, read it, put it into action. You won’t be sorry.
Well done Todd Herman … really exceptional work.
Review 2: The Alter Ego Effect audiobook by Radiant Dark
Great concept but summed up in the intro
I absolutely love the concept that this book introduces: using an avatar or alter ego to do things that our everyday egos deem to be too difficult, too big, too scary etc. I think this is a powerful and useful idea, and the author gives many examples of how his clients and peers are using alter egos they create in their daily lives, especially in sports and business situations.
However, I feel that one just needs to read the intro chapter or so to get the entire concept down. The rest of the book is just reiterating over and over why you should create an alter ego. And while it does give other examples of people’s alter egos and how they use them, I feel it’s unnecessary and rather repetitive and redundant.
Review 3: The Alter Ego Effect audiobook by Kat and Dogs
Want to slay your dragons? Here’s how
LOVE this audiobook! If you have ever been plagued by imposter syndrome or let the little voice in your head convince you not to follow your dreams, this is the book for you! Or if you are a competitor looking to gain a performance edge, yep, it can help you too (whatever your “field of play” might be).
Todd Herman’s depth and breath of experience and research related to the mental game and how alter egos can enhance performance is phenomenal. This is not your typical personal development book filled with theories or the author’s personal story (I can do you can too) or just motivational nonsense that isn’t actionable.
This book is a “playbook” of the why, what and how of alter egos with lots of real life examples from sports, business, celeb and every day people.
Todd reads this himself – and I enjoyed listening to it. Having the audiobook version as well as the Kindle version allowed me to also use whispersync for an “immersive reading” experience.
I plan to both listen and read it again- and have already seen the impact of a quick and dirty creation of one alter ego which I then took for a “test drive” using some of the exercises in the book and saw how powerful it could be.
Note: this is NOT a “fake it until you make it” technique. It is a way to leverage and access your existing “superpowers” when you need them most – to be your “heroic self” on your most important field of play.
Highly recommended!!!!
