About this listen
Analyzing the basic nature of human thought and consciousness itself, the author makes available to everyone the key to penetrating the last barrier to the advancement of civilization and science and resolving the most crucial of all human dilemmas: how to instantly determine the truth or falsehood of any statement or supposed fact.
All human endeavors have the common goal of understanding or influencing human experience. To this end, man has developed numerous descriptive and analytical disciplines: morality, philosophy, psychology, and so on. Regardless of what branch of inquiry one starts from (philosophy, political theory, theology) all avenues of investigation eventually converge at a common meeting point: the quest for an organized understanding of the nature of pure consciousness.
To explain that which is simple can be difficult indeed. Much of this book is devoted to the process of making the simple obvious. If we can understand even one simple thing in depth, we will have greatly expanded our capacity for comprehending the nature of the universe and life itself.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Nowadays everybody is talking about positioning. Positioning is the most important aspect in business. And they are right. On the other hand, most of those people just talk about the expert in the niche. But that's only one possibility to position yourself. There are many other ways for positioning in order to reach a wider target group. Especially in view of automation in the internet, there is a whole new range of possibilities out there. And if you don't take advantage of them, you'll never be able to grow in the internet.

Bringing his audacious and persuasive thesis to life, Gartner offers case histories of some famous Americans who represent this phenomenon of hypomania. These are the real stories you never learned in school about some of those men who made America: Columbus, who discovered the continent, thought he was the messiah. John Winthrop, who settled and defined it, believed Americans were God's new chosen people. Alexander Hamilton, the indispensable founder who envisioned America's economic future, self-destructed because of pride and impulsive behavior.

They’re the haters and the doubters who said you’d never make it, the ones who stomped on your dreams. When you think about your enemies, you get emotional. You feel like you won’t let anything—or anyone—stop you.

Expanding upon the illuminating discussion of the attractor patterns of success from Power vs. Force, this remarkable never-before-published book pulls back the curtain on the inner workings of the successful mind.

10 out of 10
I've just woke to understanding the levels of consciousness. This book is Matthew 7:7-8 in a nutshell for me. I encourage you all to read/listen to this book asap! There is something about hearing the author read his own book that is stunningly amazing.

Enlightening Information, but terrible narration
I read this book years ago and found the information at that time very enlightening. The information lead me to The Course in Miracles. I got this audible book to review the information as I intent to finally listen to the follow up books. The information is still as enlightening, however the author should not have read the books himself, but his a bet reader. The author is very monotone and makes the subject matter sound very dry. I constantly lost focus of what he was saying because it was so hard listening to his voice.

his voice is monotone which I like. I find it calming and the information is groundbreaking. Can't say enough good things about this book. If you can get past his voice then a fountain of knowledge and priceless relics of knowledge and wisdom are to be found here. I believe this man was enlightened no problem.
