Synopsis

The rules for living in the real world have changed, because the world we live in has changed. Much of the conventional wisdom the last generation has passed on just doesn't apply like it once did. If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.In Life Code: The New Rules for Winning in the Real World, six-time New York Times #1 best-selling author Dr. Phil McGraw abandons traditional thinking and tells you the ugly truth about the users, abusers, and overall “bad guys” we all have in our lives. He also reveals the secrets of how they think and how they get to and exploit you and those you love. You'll gain incredible insight into these negative people, which he refers to as BAITERs (Backstabbers, Abusers, Imposters, Takers, Exploiters, Reckless), and you'll gain the tools to protect yourself from their assaults. Dr. Phil gives you the “Evil Eight” identifiers so you can see them coming from a mile away, as well as their “Secret Playbook”, which contains the “Nefarious 15” tactics they use to exploit you and take what is yours mentally, physically, socially, and professionally. Life Code then focuses on you and your playbook, which contains the “Sweet 16” tactics for winning in the real world.Edgy, controversial and sometimes irreverent, Dr. Phil again abandons convention to prepare you to claim what you deserve and claim it now. You take flying lessons to learn to fly, swimming lessons to learn to swim, and singing lessons to learn to sing. So, why not take winning lessons to learn to win?©2012 Phillip C.

Goodreads review by Jason on December 18, 2012

This is a great book. I have been reading books on success and life strategies for years. This by far tops them all. Dr. Phil did a great job of simplifying these concepts so that anyone, regardless of education, can really benefit from reading it. It is a "in your face" type of book that throws awa......more

Goodreads review by Maggie on September 23, 2013

A friend recommended this book. It is my first read by Dr. Phil and will probably be my last. It shuffles up old advice that we have all heard before - such as you can't achieve goals till you make goals, have a clear action plan etc. - and offers up some new information on people he calls BAITERS.......more

Goodreads review by Rob on March 02, 2013

As I’ve said already several dozen times, I received this book via the courtesy of a GoodReads drawing. Despite that repetitious and kind consideration, I give my unfiltered feedback below. To further the probably unnecessary preamble, I feel it relevant to note that I’m not at all the self-help Dr.......more

Goodreads review by Elizabeth on August 03, 2016

Well, this is my first exposure to Dr. Phil (I don't watch much TV), and I must say I concluded I was listening to an extremely competitive salesman whose head always rules his heart. I, too, look at the world rationally, yet my life is not filled with competition. There is, indeed, SOME competition......more

Goodreads review by Nancy on April 03, 2013

This is an excellent book. For most people, I'd give it a 5. However, as a mental health professional, it was what we all know already. I enjoyed reading his process of getting to the organization of his ideas. I am a reality therapist much like Dr. Phil. I don't believe I Jung's caring approach to......more
