About this listen
The Number One Sunday Times Bestseller, written and read by Russell Brand.
This is the age of addiction, a condition so epidemic, so all encompassing and ubiquitous that unless you are fortunate enough to be an extreme case, you probably don't know that you have it.
What unhealthy habits and attachments are holding your life together? Are you unconsciously dependent on food? Bad relationships? A job that doesn't fulfill you? Numb, constant perusal of your phone, looking for what?
My qualification for writing this book is not that I am better than you, it's that I am worse. I am an addict, addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex, money, love and fame.
The program in Recovery has given Russell Brand freedom from all addictions and it will do the same for you.
This system offers nothing less than liberation from self-centredness, a new perspective, freedom from the illusion of suffering for anyone who is willing to take the necessary steps.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

I have discovered a group of women who refuse to be exploited, are immune to manipulation, and who never settle in the name of love. These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Thank you Russell
loved this book... can be quite confronting, and yet truly eye opening. he inspires you to radically change your life and so you realise that addiction is a gift that forces you to radically change the way you live... to be more conscious, wiser and to live with virtue. And his humor helps make the topic less dense, less serious and the work more enjoyable

Wonderfully and brilliantly life changing
Life changing, impactful, engaging, Rhythmic, poetic. I laughed out loud, shed a tear, had epic realisations for myself and my close friends and family. I would recommend this to everyone, we’re all victims to this obscure thing we call reality - Russell helps take of the rose tinted specs and guides us humorously through his own life challenges and realisations and in turn empowers us to face our darkest fears. In one sentence: this is life changing

Its hard to review this b/c the sun is in my eyes and Im going to the beach. Of note, I work in the business of spotting and canopening up the spaghetti of Addiction... Ecstatic that we finally have a an Ikea version of the Big Red Book and all in Native Essexian W Lovely purring vowels. Your own no holds barred 12 step pared back quick fix for the terminally addicted. Dunno if you will be able to handle the jandel though... you will have to download it and let your craven curiosity slurp it up. On another note, I liked it and I will be recommending it to the Elite set of those who cant say No....

Is it really freedom from your addictions then?
The book is great, so well presented and narrated... The author is highly intelligent individual and has great linguistic competence.
It is pleasure to listen to him.
But on the content level he himself still shares that he is battling the beast inside and does not know if he could manage. Anyway, he is an author to be thanked for exploiting the topic and sharing his personal experience.
In any case a very insightful and thought provoking book...

Recovery has been a very honest and relatable look at the 12 step program. I have heard of the steps before but it always seemed so grand and high minded that I believed it was to morally unattainable for this sinner. But after this book, it seems well worth another go. thank you.

Brilliant book.
I have a feeling the bad reviews are from people that can't be bothered to google words they don't understand or don't have much experience in dealing with the intense personalities that bipolar folk tend to have. Apart from the fame and herion I can relate to this man's experience and struggles on so many levels.
