Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Excellent book for preparing new college students!
There's nothing but sound advice in this book for a recent high school graduate entering the freshman year of college! Most of the information in this book would also apply to non-traditional college freshman students. As a graduate of two colleges and sending two kids through college, I believe this book is a great resource, and I wish I had it when I first sent my kids to college. Anyone who's a parent knows that information from a stranger (or author with credentials) is received much better than from a parent...even if it's the same.

A great resource for my kids!!
This audiobook is a great resource for anyone transitioning to a new phase of life honestly. My son is a senior in high school, we found it incredibly helpful in preparing for college. But I've also realized that the strategies and advice in this book can be applied to any major life change.
The author's insights on time management, stress management, and building relationships are invaluable. I've even found myself referring back to this book as I navigate my professional life. I particularly loved the part about updating LinkedIn, as we often forget. It's a reminder that the skills we learn in college can be applied to any situation.
If you're a high school senior, a college student, or simply someone looking to make a positive change in your life, I highly recommend this audiobook. It's a practical guide that offers both inspiration and actionable advice.

Great advice for that special, yet scary time!
I think all students should listen to this book before going to college. Maybe even in their junior year in high school to get mentally prepared. Realistic expectations are so important if you want to succeed. College is more like real life than high school and it's a tough transition. I like that this book has a plan for the summer before you start college, the first week, dorm etiquette, what to do and not do at college parties, campus safety, mental health check-ins, physical health check-ins, money management and ideas about selecting your major and much, much more. Great book!

Great guide for freshmans to start strong!
I bought this book for my daughter to get her ready for her 1st year away from home, and it’s been a great resource. It covers everything she needs to know—time management, staying on top of academics, and balancing her social life. She was happy to hear this from someone other than her mother! She’s already feeling more confident about the transition and how to handle new responsibilities. And I'm so glad she has this guide to help her navigate college with less stress. I highly recommend it to any parent with a college-bound kid!
