Publisher's summary

Dr. Mort Orman has been studying stress and the impact of negative thinking on your health, success and life for years. After dozens of years of research, he found that simply managing stress isn't good enough! Instead of managing stress in a way that never solves your root problems, it's time for a better approach that actually lets you win the game of stress!

You see, most people don't understand that there is are invisible rules that create stress in your life. And because these rules are invisible and we're not taught them in school or by the media or popular culture, most people live their whole lives never understanding how stress actually works. That's why someone can spend their entire life trying to manage stress and still feel stressed out, grumpy and generally unhappy about life. It's not your fault! You just haven't been taught the rules of stress that will help you win in life.

In this audiobook, you will discover these hidden rules and learn exactly what to do about stress to get rid of it instead of spending all your time trying to just manage stress.

Any additional comments?

I felt for the first nine chapters that I was being advertised to. I was offended by the tone of the reader. The performance and the material actually caused me stress. The book was cheap but a waste of my money.

Worst Audiobook ever recorded

avoid.

The longest commercial you will ever hear.

This book contains about 98% bragging and advertising of the author's accomplishments and other publidhed works without any actual hard substance. Long, impractical hustle. The closest to practical passage was talk of an "invisible game" of backgammon, and a *really* poor attempt to parallel that to an invisible game of stress. The author bashes mainstream stress management philosophies and approaches, promises chapter after chapter to reveal how to banish stress with no real, methodical way ever described. Just because he uses counting numbers (1, 2 and 3) does not mean the items are worth more than dung. Do not buy or download. Total waste of time.
