Historia
Think and Grow Rich is the number-one inspirational and motivational classic for individuals who are interested in furthering their lives and reaching their goals by learning from important figures in history. The text read in this audiobook is the original 1937 edition written by Napoleon Hill and inspired by Andrew Carnegie - and while it has often been reproduced, no updated version has ever been able to compete with the original.

Historia
Where can you find joy? Gain strength? How should we face our fears? Deal with the death of a loved one? And what about those reoccurring depressing thoughts? While traditional schooling doesn’t address such questions, it’s exactly what ancient schools of philosophy were all about: They taught you how to live. Even though these schools don’t exist anymore, you and I and most people are in as much need of a philosophy that guides us through life as we ever were. This compelling, highly actionable guide shows you how to deal more effectively with whatever life throws at you.

Love the content but please add table of contents to audio books
Revisado: 08-05-23
Great book overall - love the content but please add table of contents to the audio book so its quick to navigate instead of having to waste time to find written table of contents and then wasting time to locate a specific section in the audio book - the various practices are almost impossible to find because like 20 of them are under a single “chapter” - what i could do in 15 seconds, i have to waste like 100 times the amount of time..
who knows - maybe i should just accept it and deal with the hand i got with your “wonderful” lack of audible TOC :))) kidding :) pls add a visual TOC so ppl can navigate the book and find and be able to come back to those various practices.. :)

Historia
Michael Porter’s groundbreaking ideas on competition and strategy have unfolded over three decades and are spread across a dauntingly long list of publications. Every manager can name individual pieces of his work - competitive advantage, the value chain, five forces - but no one, not even Porter himself, has put the entire puzzle together to reveal it as an integrated whole. This lucid, concise audiobook does just that. This book provides an engaging summary of Porter’s ideas and an invaluable synthesis of this important body of work....

Historia
Andrew Carnegie was an immigrant, a poor boy who worked in a cotton mill, a man who amassed a great fortune as a steel baron and then became one of the most generous and influential philanthropists the world has ever known. His famous dictum, that he who dies rich dies disgraced, has inspired philanthropists and philanthropic enterprises for generations. During his own lifetime, he put his ideas into action by creating a family of organizations that continue to work toward improving the human condition.

Terrible annoying narration
Revisado: 06-08-20
The content itself is totally fine - the narration is really weird and annoying - sounds like a non-Scottish guy tries to speak with Scottish accent but in the end it just sounds like a American and slightly British accent with French R's.... plainly annoying... :)

How to Be an Imperfectionist: The New Way to Self-Acceptance, Fearless Living, and Freedom from Perfectionism

Historia
Perfectionism is a naturally limiting mindset. For example, kids are taught to color inside the lines, and any color outside the lines is considered a mistake that must be corrected. Imperfectionism frees us to live outside the lines, where possibilities are infinite, mistakes are allowed, and self-judgment is minimal.

Awesome book - must read/listen for those with perfectionist tendencies / problem
Revisado: 07-28-18
This book is really awesome - I learned a ton and started applying the principles immediately, which already helped (this is a must if you are an entrepreneur with perfectionist tendencies). The book is well organized and has clear implementation / application steps and guide - already recommended to a ton of friends with the problem.

Historia
For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success: passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But today, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. It turns out that at work, most people operate as either takers, matchers, or givers. Whereas takers strive to get as much as possible from others and matchers aim to trade evenly, givers are the rare breed of people who contribute to others without expecting anything in return.

better than nothing, short, poor structure
Revisado: 04-09-17
this is better than nothing but felt like it is too short. one of most frustrating parts is random lists that start with like #5 or #8.. example: was listening to book material than he randomly says #5 (as #5 in a list of things, not a chapter); however #1-4 were never mentioned - I relistened those areas 3 times and still did not find the missing points... other than that it's okay summary, wish it was a bit deeper (what is needed is a 40 page summary of 400 page book, not 3 page summary..)

great for improving upon GTD, but read Allen first
Revisado: 03-20-17
material is great, but you will be able to better understand it after reading (or at least getting very familiar with David a
Allen's GTD). it does address some of the key concerns i had with regular GTD and makes it a bit simpler to implement. the key important thing missing in ZTD from GTD is the "next action" concept I found very useful in GTD

Historia
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, one in nine Americans works in sales. Every day more than 15 million people earn their keep by persuading someone else to make a purchase. But dig deeper and a startling truth emerges: Yes, one in nine Americans works in sales. But so do the other eight. Whether we’re employees pitching colleagues on a new idea, entrepreneurs enticing funders to invest, or parents and teachers cajoling children to study, we spend our days trying to move others.

so so - useful, but difficult to follow on audio
Revisado: 10-02-16
I liked the author's talks on motivation and have lots of respect, and was really excited to listen to this book, but honestly was disappointed.
Concepts seem to be useful, but they are given unnecessarily fancy sounding names, which could easily be renamed to smth simpler and more memorable.
Poor structure of book - jumping back and forth to loosely related and poorly named concepts usually without good connected progression, which ultimately can create a "soup" in listeners / readers head.
Difficult to follow, especially on audio when author constantly gives numbered lists (which I actually like), but you only know its a numbered list when he says 3 or 4 (it was not clear some list is upcoming) - if you are taking notes it gets very confusing and you waste time relistening..
I like scientific books, but this one has too much emphasis on proceas / methodology where in many cases what reader wants to know is the key result / findings.
