About this listen
A top performance expert reveals the secret behind many top athletes and executives: creating a heroic alter ego to activate when the chips are down.
There’s only one person in the way of you unleashing your potential: you. There’s also one person who can move you out of the way so you can perform at your peak.
That person is already inside you. You just need to unlock them. This other part of you is your alter ego. After 21 years of working with elite athletes, performers, and leaders, Todd Herman has discovered how you can use your alter ego to achieve the seemingly impossible. It all clicked for Todd when he met Bo Jackson.
When Herman met Bo Jackson, the professional athlete told him, “Bo Jackson never played a down of football in his entire life.” Bo explained that when he was young, he’d get into trouble because of chaos caused by his anger issues. Then, he saw Friday the 13th and became fascinated by the cold, calculating nature of Jason Voorhees. In that moment, he resolved to stop being Bo Jackson and start being Jason the moment he stepped on the field.
In this transformative guide, Herman teaches you how to create and control an alter ego like Bo - and the thousands of other athletes, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and entertainers who have used this simple tool to change their lives. Herman also shares his own story: He knew that inside was a confident, self-assured, intelligent person who could help others get better results in their lives. When he started using Superman’s classic trick - putting on a pair of glasses - he learned to trigger the specific traits he needed to achieve his goals.
The Alter Ego Effect is not about creating a false mask - it’s about finding the hero already inside you. It’s a proven way of overcoming the self-doubt, negativity, and insecurity that hold you back and empowering you to ultimately become your best self.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Just Listen
This resonated. And its idea is simple. It presents steps to find and show strengths you already have but just don’t use. The examples are pragmatic and compelling. I recommend this to anyone whose day dreams are bigger than their day.

Create the you you need
This is the best book I have read this year and one of the top books on creating the person you need to be. A hands on approach to adopting characteristics and more to help you succeed. Identity, I Am statements, affirmations, Act as If - this book does a magnificent job of taking those ideas and making the real.

A life changer
I'll need to buy the print version of this book because there are so many sections that I need to refer back to and flip between to get the most out if it. But I'm glad a listened to the audible version first because I think there's something powerful in hearing an author read their own book. Particarly this book, for me, I don't think I would have got as much out of it if I'd read it in my own voice, Todd reads it with much more conviction than I ever could and therein lies the power.
