About this listen
You want to learn, but you have the attention span of a weevil. Thankfully, Elise has years of experience helping people just like you.
This audiobook is short and sweet on purpose, and in the course of a few "chapter-ettes", you will learn how you can:
- Increase your chances of even starting a study session at all ("Turning a Mountain into a Molehill")
- Improve your chances of finishing what you start ("Getting Crap Done")
- Promote better studying without even studying at all ("You Snooze, You Don't Lose")
- Learn how to ask for help instead of wasting everyone's time
- And laugh along the way

Imagine if you were running a very old software program on a computer. It would be slow, inefficient, and cause you to waste a lot of time dealing with the outdated interface. You know how frustrating it is when this happens to you on a computer, but do we even notice when we are using old or inefficient mental skills? Think how many times you read every day. And imagine how much more time you would have if you could learn how to speed read.

Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Story
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Story
The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.
