Richard Wiseman

By: Holly Newson
Narrated by: Richard Wiseman

Summary

Joining us at Audible Studios is Professor Richard Wiseman, Britain’s first Professor of the Public Understanding of Psychology.

His newest book, Shoot for the Moon, gives listeners eight key principles on how to live their lives with the same mind-set of the Apollo mission crew, who put a man on the moon. He explains how pessimism is key to success and how you can transform fear into hope and tragedy into optimism.

We spoke about the value of giving young people responsibility at work, how you can find purpose in whatever you do and how he’ll always think about things like a magician.

Listen to Shoot for the Moon, published by Quercus, here.
