Review: Very useful. Very relevant. - I consider myself one of life's high achievers, but despite this I have been conscious that I could achieve more if I could adopt a more helpful mindset. I saw this recommended and bought it to read on holiday. Within 20 pages I immediately found myself relating to the material. A minority of reviewers have criticised this book as being flimsy or flaky in its approach. I couldnt disagree more. On the first day of the holiday I witnessed my wife trying (again) to teach my 7 year old daughter to swim. She has a major fear of the water so at 7 she still cant swim. I saw my wife getting frustrated that my daughter would not even try. At this point I had only read 20 or so pages of the book but it immediately dawned on me that the answer to my daughter learning to swim was psychology not technique. I was witnessing one chimp (my wife's) getting frustrated with another (my daughter's) with destructuve results. When I told my daughter she had a chimp in her head hell bent on self preservation and telling her she couldnt and mustnt swim I immediately had her attention. We worked on 'boxing the chimp'. Within minutes (minutes not hours) her mindset changed and she grew in confidence. Enough to trust me and for her to start focussing on the swimming technique she would need to learn. Within an hour of employing the basic premise of this book my daughter had swum a width of the pool. I bought this book for me but the first person to benefit was my daughter. I was fascinated and astounded by what the two of us had acheived. I have now read the rest of the book and whilst it is highly emotive to say a book can change your life this book is changing my APPROACH to life and I already feel more easy going, positive, relaxed and up for the challenges the future may hold in fact the challenges I hope it holds! I also have a better grasp of what makes people tick which is immensely helpful on so many levels. You may be the easiest going, most positive person on the planet and feel there is no need to read this book. But wouldnt it be good to understand why, and understand others better? Buy the book.
Review: Low mood? Anxious? Stressed? relationship,issues? Problems at work? LOOK NO FURTHER - This book is written in such a simple, straightforward style with no jargon or complex psychological terms that it is accessible to all. Rather than attribute those emotions or behaviours in you to your "inner child" or your "Id" or your subconscious the author attributes unwanted or unhelpful thought patterns, emotions or behaviours to your inner "Chimp". Step-by-step he takes you through a journey to better understand your SELF and how to manage psychological issues / relationship problems / stress and how to improve your levels of contentment, happiness and success. There are a LOT of self help,books out there but this one stands out for its simple no nonsense style and practical advice. There's no suggestion of relying on faith/ spirituality / wishful thinking to help address problems you are facing in life. The author simply explains WHY we suffer with psychological problems and HOW to address each problem. I read it because I have a very hectic stressful life and am a born worrier. The book has helped me see how my stress is caused by my not managing the "needs of my chimp" and by trying to look after too many people around me rather than focussing on those who are closest to me and provide me with support - " my troop" as the author calls it. It has also helped me develop a better understanding of "difficult" people I encounter at work and amongst my family and helped my wife and I communicate in a more constructive way about areas where we disagree. By accepting that many communication problems at work and at home arise when the "Chimp" aspect of both parties are not listening to the other and forcing their point of view across you can approach important conversations in a more a more rational manner and improve communication in difficult situations. I also enjoyed Stephen Grosz "The examined mind", Scott Peck " The road Less travelled" and the "Hector" series of books by Francois Delordes Out of all of them, THIS book has been the most helpful,in terms of practical advice about addressing stress and emotional or psychological problems.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chimp v Human
*by J***R on 21 April 2012*

This book is written in a plain, accessible style. It tells us that our brain can conveniently be divided into three parts HUMAN, CHIMP, COMPUTER. The chimp is first to react - for instance crossing the road without looking properly - and may give a warning which saves your life. However, the chimp can also make a mountain out of a molehill, sowing seeds for future problems. Someone takes your parking space,for example. Instead of shrugging and maybe moaning to friends, you seek out the parking villain and confront him. Result: nobody wins and nothing is gained, just trouble. The human in the parking scenario would just shrug, the chimp wants to confront someone about it. The computer meanwhile takes in chimp and human reactions and melds them together, to make the personality you become. This books tells us how to contain(not remove) our chimp, making life easier, better and less confrontational. It teaches us to accept situations which cannot be changed - because they've happened - to move on and plan the future. I found the various sections helpful, and soon became aware when my chimp was pushing himself to the front of my thinking. The author helped Chris Hoy to power his way to a cycling gold medal, by helping him contain the chimp and plan various goals to reach on the way to his dream of a gold medal. I just want to get through a day without unnecessary anxiety, and with purpose. If you share those simple aims then this book will help you order your life and bring order to ambition. The added bonus is that the book is an easy read.
