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….

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.

This book is rousing and instructive.
A Great series guidebook for all. If you don't think that you going to be any good at this task this is another reason that you're most likely to approach procrastination's trap or avoid it. Most people have an inner fear fo failure and if you think that you're not going to be able to do something, your mindset is going to be that you don't know how to do it so why should you try. Learning recipes provided. Recommended.

It is a very good book and helpful book.
The book is an easy listen in one sitting, or go through its segments and put them into action. There's so much in there though that it's worth a re-listen and marking up the book with notes. Glad I have the actual book vs kindle.

I am very pleased listened to this book
Loved this book! I was able to quickly listen it in an afternoon. I couldn't put it down and was ready to start trying some of the exercises immediately. I was not stressed or overwhelmed by the book. It was amazing and actually comforting to see I am not the only one who feels this guilty about procrastinating.

A mind changeable book
I like the book but have not finished it yet. I bought it because I liked what I saw. The author explains why we procrastinate. That's a good place to start. And guess what? There are many reasons for why we procrastinate. I should know! There are a lot of tactics for overcoming your "inner procrastinator." It all sounds very good and the book doesn't seem boring, which is one reason for why we procrastinate, and the main reason why I purchased it. The last thing a person who procrastinates needs is a boring book. I like this one.

A comprehenisve audio guide.
The creator is talented in unmistakably disclosing what you have to do, no channel, only the manner in which you have to do it. It has much more insight into other firmly related points. I don't as a rule give solid suggestions, however, this book merits one! The Book is convenient for me to open and close, listen in the vehicle or lounge area. Words can't express the amount I like this book. Just in an initial couple of parts, you will see.
