The James Altucher Show

Such an inspiring story by Dr. Edith Eger, a psychologist practicing in the United States. Holocaust survivor and a specialist in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder and her daughter, Dr. Marianne Engle, licensed clinical psychologist and a sports psychologist. In this episode, we talked about her new book, The Gift: 14 Lessons to Save Your Life, how she was able to keep her drive throughout the horrific experience, how does she move on from life, and what is self-love, and how to forgive.She gave one of my favorite quotes of hers when I asked her about explaining to her kids what happened to her, which is 'it's not my identity. It's not who I am. It's what was done to me. So I refuse to be a victim. I was victimized. It's not who I am. It's what was done to me. I'm still a good person, and I can choose my attitude, the way I not to react, but to respond to anything that comes my way'Visit Notepd.com to read more idea lists, or sign up and create your own idea list!My new book Skip The Line is out
