Chris Gardner
About this listen
A la edad de veinte años y después de haber salido de la Marina, Chris Gardner, llegó a San Francisco para continuar una carrera prometedora en la medicina. Considerado un hijo prodigio de la investigación científica, sorprendió a todos y a sí mismo estableciendo su punto de vista en el competitivo mundo de las finanzas. Sin embargo, apenas había entrado a una posición de gran nivel en una empresa de prestigio, Gardner se encontró atrapado en una red de circunstancias increíblemente difíciles que lo dejaron como parte de los ciudadanos sin hogar y con un hijo pequeño. Motivado por la promesa que se hizo a sí mismo de nunca abandonar a sus propios hijos, los dos pasaron casi un año moviéndose entre refugios, moteles, comedores públicos, e incluso dormir en el baño público de una estación de metro. Gardner nunca cedió ante la desesperación e hizo una transformación asombrosa pasando de ser parte de la ciudad pobre e invisible a convertirse en un miembro de gran influencia en su área financiera. Más que un libro de memorias del éxito financiero de Gardner, esta es la historia de un hombre que rompió el ciclo de su propia familia en contraste con hombres que abandonan a sus hijos. Legendario, triunfante e increíblemente honesto, este libro evoca a héroes como Horatio Alger y Antwone Fishe, y apela a la esencia del sueño americano.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

"El hombre en busca de sentido" es el estremecedor relato en el que Viktor Frankl nos narra su experiencia en los campos de concentración. Durante todos esos años de sufrimiento, sintió en su propio ser lo que significaba una existencia desnuda, absolutamente desprovista de todo, salvo de la existencia misma. Él, que todo lo había perdido, que padeció hambre, frío y brutalidades, que tantas veces estuvo a punto de ser ejecutado, pudo reconocer que, pese a todo, la vida es digna de ser vivida y que la libertad interior y la dignidad humana son indestructibles.

En cuestiones de dinero, lo que importa no es lo listo que seas sino cómo te comportas. Tendemos a pensar en la inversión o la gestión de las finanzas personales como una disciplina matemática, en la que los datos y las fórmulas nos dicen exactamente qué hacer. Sin embargo, el rasgo que define a las personas que logran enriquecerse no es su destreza con los números, ni su salario o su talento, sino su historia personal, sus motivaciones y su visión única del mundo.

Story
Best-selling author Bryan Burrough recently made a shocking discovery: The small town of Temple, Texas, where he had grown up, had harbored a dark secret. One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

Conmovedora Historia
Si crees que tienes desafíos grandes, tienes que escuchar este libro y probablemente reconsideres tu “problemas”. Te da mucho para reflexionar y conocer una historia que vale la pena contarse y escuchar. La historia también te hace reflexionar sobre como una persona con una visión clara, tenaz, con pasión y con un trabajo duro puede superarse.

La resiliencia de Chris
Magistral libro me atrapó desde un principio y poco a poco me fui adentrando pero mejor a aún me fuí identificando con Chris Gardner. Es un libro que no dejaré de escuchar cuantas veces se me de la gana por que me encantó y principalmente por que es una guía en personal y profesional para mi vida. Felicitaciones

Inspirador
El audiolibro es excelente, la historia es genial, muy larga pero atrapante, el autor no se guarda nada sobre sus éxitos, sus fracasos y sus angustias, un camino de dolor que lleva finalmente por la gracia de Dios al punto más alto de su vida. Resiliencia. Adaptación, transformación del dolor en éxito. alimentado del Maná del cielo, supo llegar a su tierra prometida. Me hizo emocionar hasta las lágrimas. Y con experiencias económicas, toca algunas cuestiones técnicas generales de la inversión y el riesgo, por sobre todo el significado de la felicidad siendo secundario el dinero, sino otro tipo de riqueza.

Me ha sorprendido gratamente y me he proyectado personalmente en su historia. Captó mi atención desde los primeros capítulos y no podía dejar de escucharlo. Es una fuente de inspiración para seguir buscando mi felycidad y la de la gente a mi alrededor.

Mala narración
Definitivamente siempre es mejor un narrador nativo. Además es chocante como pronuncia palabras en inglés .
La autobiografía trata de ser exageradamente descriptiva y habla de momentos sin importancia en algunos casos que llegan a aburrir

MUY MALA NARRACIÓN
La narración tiene muchos errores en la pronunciación de las palabras. El narrador no puede leer en español correctamente. El español no es su primera lengua.
