Review

It is normally believed that a young man who excels at school and becomes a great professional is prepared for success. However, that is not always the case, or rather, it is rarely the case. Most people that present elements that our system recognizes as measures of future success surprisingly wrong.

This is the idea that Eric Barker elaborates on in his bestseller, Barking at the Wrong Tree. He also explains that most young people that graduate from university don’t usually go out to the world and revolutionize it. Quite on the contrary, they normally lead a some-what passive life and not always inside the field of their study.

The audiobook has many particular examples of these cases.

The boos has been praised by the critic but has also had some negative reviews claiming that it is quite simplistic. However, in its defense, the book doesn’t look for showing amazingness or a shocking experience. It is made with the purpose or helping you understand that there are many elements that are considered as measures of success that are completely wrong in our society.
