À propos de cet audio
The Antidote is a series of journeys among people who share a single, surprising way of thinking about life. What they have in common is a hunch about human psychology: that it’s our constant effort to eliminate the negative that causes us to feel so anxious, insecure, and unhappy. And that there is an alternative "negative path" to happiness and success that involves embracing the things we spend our lives trying to avoid. It is a subversive, galvanizing message, which turns out to have a long and distinguished philosophical lineage ranging from ancient Roman Stoic philosophers to Buddhists. Oliver Burkeman talks to life coaches paid to make their clients’ lives a living hell, and to maverick security experts such as Bruce Schneier, who contends that the changes we’ve made to airport and aircraft security since the 9/11 attacks have actually made us less safe. And then there are the "backwards" business gurus, who suggest not having any goals at all and not planning for a company’s future.
Burkeman’s new audiobook is a witty, fascinating, and counterintuitive listen that turns decades of self-help advice on its head and forces us to rethink completely our attitudes toward failure, uncertainty, and death.

Histoire
Modern knowledge workers communicate constantly. Their days are defined by a relentless barrage of incoming messages and back-and-forth digital conversations - a state of constant, anxious chatter in which nobody can disconnect, and so nobody has the cognitive bandwidth to perform substantive work. There was a time when tools like email felt cutting edge, but a thorough review of current evidence reveals that the "hyperactive hive mind" workflow they helped create has become a productivity disaster, reducing profitability and perhaps even slowing overall economic growth.

Today we think statistics are the enemy, numbers used to mislead and confuse us. That’s a mistake, Tim Harford says in The Data Detective. We shouldn’t be suspicious of statistics - we need to understand what they mean and how they can improve our lives: they are, at heart, human behavior seen through the prism of numbers and are often “the only way of grasping much of what is going on around us”.

What does it really mean to be a grown-up in today's world? We assume that once we "get it together" with the right job, marry the right person, have children, and buy a home, all is settled and well. But adulthood presents varying levels of growth and is rarely the respite of stability we expected. Turbulent emotional shifts can take place anywhere between the ages of 35 and 70 when we question the choices we've made, realize our limitations, and feel stuck - commonly known as the "midlife crisis".

Life lessons for the resistant
These lessons should be in all of our lives well before the 3 R's. We cultivate the wrong kind of negativity over lifetimes, yet are puzzled when we find ourselves starting up from the bottom of a dark pit. Time to wake up.

Excellent argument for stoicism
Witty and engaging and really well narrated. Utterly unlike self-help books while still being a good self-help guide. It's not 20 pages of advice with 200 pages of fluff bulking it up.
A great introduction for people who prefer to find their own way.

Absolutely refreshing and true
Burkeman might be the most insightful person I’ve read on this topic. Incredibly refreshing. This book will stay with me for a long time. A unique thinker. Starting to realize his genius. Will read all his other work for sure. Rare to see someone think things through like this, with this rigour. Thank you so much Oliver.

A limited perspective on positivity
While I agree with Oliver that the self help industry is full of flash and charlatans, his overly pessimistic attitude is apparent in between the lines as I made my way from chapter to chapter. This book would have been so much better if he didn’t overly simplify positivity as merely something the ultra naive believe in. Not a lot garnered from this book unfortunately.
