What do you think when you hear the word "taxes"? Odds are, you don't associate them with anything good. In fact, it's been said that the only two things that are certain in life are death and taxes - and nobody looks forward to either of them. As an entrepreneur, you know the value you bring to the table. You help create jobs, provide services, and give back with your time and effort. The truth is, by changing the way you approach your taxes, you can transform the way they impact your life.

Handling a newborn is tough. But as any parent knows, what comes after the age of three makes everything before look like a walk in a park. It seems like your child learned how to talk overnight, and suddenly, you discover a whole new aspect of your parent-child relationship: communication. Many don’t even realize how crucial that moment is. Not only does your child now understand what you’re saying to them, but they also use words to express themselves.

Causing most people who have the desire to start boxing, to miss out on the mental and physical benefits that you gain from boxing—I want to stop this. I was once very lazy; I lacked discipline and was generally scared to try anything that looked difficult. You most likely find yourself in that position, but enough is enough; it is time to improve yourself.

Awesome Audiobook!
At the beginning when I’m listening to it. It’s kind of a deep meaning for me since this is the first time I am listening to this kind of audiobook. You know, something that you interpret(I’m not sure maybe I’m not that deep thinking (smiley face)On a serious note, that’s how you learn. And as far as I went to listen this audiobook, Chapter 4 got my attention in Tactical Dispositions. “To hear the noise of Thunder is no sign of a quick ear”. You don’t always see the obvious, and this will lead to vision of one’s that see it. It is lacking the majority otherwise the world will have a lot more millionaire. This is my take away from this Great Audiobook. Recommended to those who wants to have an advantage in negotiations and deals.

BEST NEGOTIATION BOOK OUT THERE
As a person that works in sales, I make my money through negotiations. Negotiations are so much more than what you have to offer and this book does a phenomenal job covering all the details of negotiations. I have already used some information I learned from this book and I have seen positive results in my sales because of my improved negotiations. Regardless of whether you are in sales or not, negotiations are a part of life, and this book will help you develop strategies and negotiating skills.

Very very interesting listen this one was. Learning how to effectively negotiate is extremely important and much more so than one would ordinarily think. Listening to this actually made me want to discover more about SunTzu and I ended up watching an hour long documentary about him which was again fascinating. Some incredible strategies are covered in the book, some which you would never ever think but also fairly easy to practice and apply

A classic applied to a modern context
when you listen to this book, you realize how brutal sun tzu's maxims are, which are mentioned throughout the book. you think to yourself, how does this all relate to business? But it does because the business world can be just as brutal. I like how the authors were able to put this all in context because the business world can be just as cruel and heartless.
