About this listen

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Uncover your own hidden abilities, sharpen your senses, and liberate your unique intelligence by following the example of the greatest genius of all time, Leonardo da Vinci.

“By capturing the very essence and Da Vinci’s life and genius—the seemingly perfect integration of mind, body, spirit, and soul—Michael Gelb guides us in a discovery and understanding of the boundlessness of our own full human potential.”—DEEPAK CHOPRA

Genius is made, not born. And human beings are gifted with an almost unlimited potential for learning and creativity.

Acclaimed author Michael J. Gelb, who has helped thousands of people expand their minds to accomplish more than they ever thought possible, shows you how. Drawing on renowned artist Leonardo da Vinci’s notebooks, inventions, and legendary works of art, Gelb introduces Seven Da Vincian Principles—the essential elements of genius—from curiosità, the insatiably curious approach to life, to connessione, the appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things.

Step by step, through exercises and provocative lessons, you will harness the power—and awesome wonder—of your own genius, mastering such life-changing abilities as:

• problem solving
• creative thinking
• self-expression
• enjoying the world around you
• goal setting and life balance
• harmonizing body and mind

With Da Vinci as your inspiration, you will discover an exhilarating new way of thinking.

The narration is good and the subject matter is interesting but I just don't think it works as an audio book. The reason? There are a number of exercises and assignments that you to complete as part of learning and becoming more creative. Not very practical if you are listening to this in the car!

That said the subject was interesting enough for me to go and buy a physical copy of the book. So in short as an accompaniment to a physical book and to reinforce concepts its great. As a newcomer to it then better off with a book.
