Description
”This remarkable book translates state-of-the art neuroscience into practical techniques that rapidly promote personal transformation. If you want to double your happiness and your income, start using these powerful brain-changing exercises today!” ―John Assaraf, New York Times bestselling author and CEO of NeuroGym
Adapted from a business school course they created for professionals, bestselling author Mark Waldman and Chris Manning present simple brain exercises, based on the latest neuroscience research, to guide readers to improvement in all parts of life, from work to home, from how we think to how we feel.
Their promise is to help people create more "wealth" in their lives, defined as the combination of money, happiness, and success. Using the latest research studied by two experts in their field, the book presents both the scientific background and sets of “NeuroWisdom” exercises that will help people reduce neurological stress and increase happiness, motivation, and productivity. The “worry” centers of the brain are turned off and the optimism circuits are turned on. Work becomes more pleasurable and creativity is increased, enabling the brain to anticipate and solve problems more efficiently.
From the cutting edge of brain science to real-world solutions, these exercises help readers gain the wisdom that leads to greater fulfillment.

Good book, some informations on the brain, the usual mindfulness and some other insights about emotion, social edonism and drives. Pretty clear and with a lot of tips and suggestions, this book is a little bit different from all the others that have been recently published about, more or less, the same topic. Recommended reading if you are interested about the mechanism behind the most common pulsions.
Bel libro, alcune informazioni sul cervello, la mindfulness (che come al solito non puó mancare) e alcuni insight sulle emozioni, l'edonismo sociale e le pulsioni. Molto chiaro e con molti trucchi e suggerimenti, questo libro si posiziona, secondo me, uno scalino piú in alto di tutti quelli che hanno pubblicato recentemente sull'argomento; lettura obbligata se vi interessano i meccanismi dietro le spinte che guidano gli esseri umani.
THANKS TO NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!
NeuroWisdom is an immensely practical book that applies the latest neuroscience research to money, success, and happiness. This book doesn’t feel like a slimy book of scams promoting pure greed and it doesn’t teach you cheap tricks on how to slyly creep up the ladder of success. It is a down-to-earth and practical book filled with experiential exercises and evidence-based strategies to change your brain, change your relationships to yourself, people and money, and drastically transform your life. I highly recommend it!
This book is dope, dope, dope!
Basically, Mark and Chris define Neurowisdom as the inner teacher and spiritual compass that, when fully embraced, will help the reader achieve their financial and emotional goals.
The authors give practical steps for readers to practice mindfulness which in turn provides a formula for creating inner and outer wealth.
There are 4 pillars of wealth explored: Motivation, Decision making, Creativity and Awareness.
Favourite Quote: “When you seek wealth for your own private pleasure, you’ll feel somewhat empty. Those who share accumulated wealth with others feel greater emotional satisfaction.”
Rating: 5/5
Recommendation: If you are looking for a book to enhance your ability to be self directed and increase creativity, this is for you. This book is a practical one and you definitely need to spend time reading and carrying out the exercises.
