About this listen

Dr. William Glasser offers a new psychology that, if practiced, could reverse our widespread inability to get along with one another, an inability that is the source of almost all unhappiness.

For progress in human relationships, he explains that we must give up the punishing, relationship–destroying external control psychology. For example, if you are in an unhappy relationship right now, he proposes that one or both of you could be using external control psychology on the other. He goes further. And suggests that misery is always related to a current unsatisfying relationship. Contrary to what you may believe, your troubles are always now, never in the past. No one can change what happened yesterday.

Interesting and alluring but full of author hubris. Worth a listen but there's certainly a whiff of fairytale about some ideas like quality communities.

it's an interesting theory with good examples, presented in an engaging way. BUT he presents no scientific grounds whatsoever. Meanwhile he presents it as though it is a fact and not a theory.

Good attempt to explain what it is but I'd prefer if it the philosophy was explained more in the application. Google is better.

ChoiceTheory good but mainly case study.
