A Need To Read

#109 The School Of Life


Listen Later

“Anyone who isn't embarrassed by who they were last year probably isn't learning enough.” Alain De Botton

 

Discussing my key learnings from The School Of Life by Swiss-born British Philosopher Alain De Botton. This book is full of knowledge and will provide you a real emotional education. As good as the book was it was slightly difficult to read, as with most philosophy. In the podcast, I discuss my favourite parts including lessons on; relationships, self, psychotherapy, affairs, inner child work, kindness, and being as vulnerable as a dog.
