Summary

If you are bored and unfulfilled by dry and overly worthy self-help manuals, then this is the audiobook for you! Listen to this and take a very different look at yourself!

Former SAS hero Andy McNab and eminent psychologist Professor Kevin Dutton are unlikely partners. As Oxford academic and bestselling author of The Wisdom of Psychopaths, Kevin Dutton has plenty of experience of psychopaths, but he'd never met anyone quite like Andy McNab, decorated war hero and special forces warrior. And although they took very different paths on their roads through life, their personal stories are remarkably similar.

Together they decided to explore the subject of the psychopathic condition using a unique combination of McNab's personal experiences of 20 years in the army and Dutton's ability to analyse them. In their words, McNab pulls the trigger, Dutton explains why the gun goes bang!

This audiobook sets out to answer two main questions: What is a good psychopath? And how can you use the positive attributes of that psychology to be the 'best that you can be' In order to do so, they have created a Psychopath Manifesto, an alternative set of rules for life, which begins by asking 'what do you really want from life' and 'what does success look like to you'? It then offers a candid and penetrating insight into those questions viewed using Dutton's expertise through the prism of Andy McNab's wild and various career. It aims to provide an unusual and entertaining roadmap to self-fulfillment whether in your personal life, your business life or your social life

I’m just doing it

Under normal circumstances I wouldn’t be leaving a review. This book has taught me more about myself than I care to share but, believe me when I say that it has helped me to change some of my habits and I expect overtime more will unfold. I’m an empath and in most of my roles this trait has served me very well but, as I’ve climbed the ladder, it has become much harder for me to make decisions and live with the consequences. Shame, guilt, procrastination, you name it, they’ve all played their part in my life. From now on I’ll be considering what my new best friend, the good psychopath would do or say and think later in order to be who I can be.
The humour, frankness and the relationship between the authors of this book is palpable. I loved getting into their collective mind space.
Thank you
