essential stuff, but too short!

this is essential material that every man should take in and metabolize. my only complaint with this is that it's way too short. I will need to find something more substantial. a good starting place, but a starting place only.

Learn Yourself

A must for all humans who want to bring a real sense of meaning and fulfillment into their lives, learning how to listen to and access the wise king within you is undoubtedly the most important skill a young man can cultivate, and surely a life affirming skill for any human to be in touch with.

Mixed feelings

This book definatly does have a lot to teach me although there are a few things new readers should be weary of.

1. The author uses 50 words when 5 would suffice. Sure it makes them sound really smart and is more accurate if drafted as a law but comes off as long winded which isn't ideal for an audio book that is only 3 hours. Furthermore, it can make the point get lost in a sea of noise and jargon when it isn't necessary.

2. The author will not go over what the 4 archetypes (king, magician, warrior, lover) are or their characteristics at the start. Look these up first This! This is assumed knowledge and not knowledge that I had before starting.

3. Will sometimes refer to a concept and continue before explaining the concept. If you dont understand, don't rewind, keep listening and they explain it after (sometimes).

4. Refers to other famous names in the field and their work. This is good although it cam come off as gospel truth when there is no definitive way to determine if they are correct but that is the nature of the field. (I'm just sceptical of people referring to "facts" when in reality, it is just the best guess by an expert).

Promises more than delivers

Somewhat superficial analysis of the archetypal king - there is mention of how it relates to other archetypes but it is not a depth profile or the process to incorporate the archetype except the suggestion to ask your subconscious for a sign. It is fairly fluff material except for some passages which are inspiring without delivering a methodology of approach or even delving into the archetype itself beyond the somewhat obvious. It becomes repetitive as well because the few points are driven over again and again. Worth a listen if you have t heard of archetypes before or never read about the energy of the organising King archetype
