11 reviews for On Wanting to Change

  1. Vishal

    Too academic for my taste. The ideas were interesting, but the writing felt inaccessible. Not a casual read.

  2. Ujjwal

    I really enjoyed the book. It made me think about my own desires and motivations. Adam’s writing style is engaging.

  3. Priyal Jain Jain

    It was okay, but the book didn’t fully resonate with me. I was hoping for more practical advice, less philosophical musings.

  4. Jayasurya K R

    Phillips offers some great insights into the human psyche. I enjoyed the exploration of wanting vs. needing, although it got a little repetitive.

  5. Himanshu Choudhary

    While the concepts are intriguing, Phillips can be a bit verbose. It felt longer than it needed to be. Still some good food for thought.

  6. Shaurya Jha

    A brilliant and insightful book! Phillips delves into the complexities of change with remarkable clarity. Highly recommended for anyone seeking self-understanding.

  7. Tushar Nandani

    Fascinating exploration of the human condition. This book has given me a new perspective on my own behavior and the choices I make.

  8. Vanshika Saini

    I found this book quite stimulating, but you must be patient while reading this. I appreciated the author’s unique perspective.

  9. Purnyatre Gaur

    A thought-provoking read, but I found it a bit dense at times. Phillips raises interesting questions about our desires. Good for deep thinkers.

  10. Palak Shukla

    Not what I expected. Found it hard to follow the main argument. Some parts were interesting, but overall, a bit disappointing.

  11. Vivek Vijayakumar

    A challenging but rewarding read. It forces you to confront your own resistance to change. It could be shorter.
