About this listen
We live in a world that encourages impatience. From pizza joints that promise your pizza will arrive in 15 minutes or it’s free to ridiculously rapid (if not highly dubious) three-month online MBA programs, it seems that more and more services seek to cater to our perceived "need for speed." While it's true that most Americans are busy and there doesn't seem to be enough hours in a day, are we burning ourselves out physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually with this speed obsession?
It turns out that the average American's attention span continues to shrink as workloads and everyday responsibilities pile up. If you feel like you're just spinning around chasing your tail without achieving much of anything, you are hardly alone. It seems that despite our obsession with instant results and busy schedules, we fail to achieve much of true substance with our lives.
Renowned self-help author Anas Alaoui, the author of the groundbreaking self-improvement instant classic You Versus You, tackles the one human virtue we lose out on as we seek to pack more and more activities into an ever-shrinking amount of time. Ironically enough, this one virtue is actually the key to true lasting success and a lifetime of achievement, victory, and happiness. This virtue is patience.
In The Secret Sauce to Modern Success: How to Unleash the Virtue of Patience to Get the Most out of Your Life, Anas spells out the definition of patience, why it is important, its practical benefits, and how it leads to greater personal success. He also steps the listener through practical, easy to understand, methods of how to fine tune, hone, and increase your personal patience. If you've been at the end of your rope too many times for your comfort, this book can help you not only become more patient but it also teaches you to leverage your increased patience to maximize your personal effectiveness. Anas teaches listeners how to attain a greater sense of purpose, achieve greater happiness, contentment, and perform at peak levels through the power of increased and amplified patience. Start living the life of relentless victory you're capable of living by ordering The Secret Sauce to Modern Success today!

You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.

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.

Thus giving its practitioners a way to better deal with the misfortunes and hardships they face.

But consultant, psychologist, and bestselling author Dr. Henry Cloud sees endings differently. He argues that our personal and professional lives can only improve to the degree that we can see endings as a necessary and strategic step to something better.

Do you ride the escalator or do you take the stairs? No matter how you define success, it always requires one thing: self-discipline. But as popular speaker and strategist Rory Vaden explains, we live in an "escalator world", one that's filled with shortcuts, quick fixes, and distractions that make it all too easy to slide into procrastination, compromise, and mediocrity. What seems like an easier path is really much harder in the end - and, most important, it won't take you where you want to go.
