Why read it?

2 authors picked The Art of Possibility as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I listened to it as an audio, and it was amazing! One of the most delightful books I’ve ever experienced. The husband and wife team, including world-renowned conductor Benjamin Zander, describe strategies for living your best life. The concepts come to life when Benjamin Zander provides orchestral examples in the background or measures from the classics. It’s a full listening experience!

Perception is not reality. Neuroscience has clearly shown that our human brains are subject to plenty of self-sabotaging patterns. The practices in this book form a powerful framework that enables the reader to imagine and create possibilities that initially seem highly unlikely or even impossible. The wisdom in this book encourages people to reject being “realistic”, ignite hope, and pursue dreams and goals that inspire and spark our passion. As our courage to dream big grows, so does our capacity to achieve those dreams together.

From Kimberly's list on achieve what seems impossible.
