Red Pill: Things I Wish I Could Unlearn : Learning Thyself, Book 8 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 29min
Many of us are suffering in today’s world. We are prone to addictions, such as street drugs, prescription drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, shopping, theft, and more. We are addicted to the escapism that comes from dumping money into television and movie streaming services, video games, books, and more. We love fantasy, horror, and true crime. We all long to be superheroes in our own stories. Many of us wonder why we are even here. We watch some of the people around us commit suicide, including beloved celebrities like Chester Bennington, Chris Cornell, Avicii, Anthony Bourdain, and Robin Williams. We wonder about the state that the world is in. If we educate ourselves on our own world history, we will become painfully aware that others are more in control of our lives than we ever were. I spent half of my life being naïve. I took the blue pill. I focused only on my immediate family to the exclusion of all others. I didn’t follow our world history or politics. I never turned on the news. I didn’t want to see what was going on in the world. I didn’t use social media. If someone spoke about these things around me, I walked away or shut them down. Then, I took the red pill. I regretted taking the red pill. I regretted opening my eyes to what was happening in the world. I traveled the world to see all the things I had missed before. This little book is about the things in the world we wish we could unlearn if we were happy being naïve. This little book holds some of the reasons people commit suicide to escape the real problems that are forming around them. This little book is blunt and painfully honest and raw.

The Commitment Engine: Making Work Worth It , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 377min
The small-business guru behind Duct Tape Marketing and The Referral Engine teaches listeners how to establish lasting commitment in their employees, customers, and businesses. Why are some companies able to generate committed, long-term customers while others struggle to stay afloat? Why do the employees of some organizations fully dedicate themselves while others punch the clock without enthusiasm? By studying the ins and outs of companies that enjoy extraordinary loyalty from customers and employees, John Jantsch reveals the systematic path to discovering and generating genuine commitment. Jantsch’s approach is built on three foundational planks, which he calls the clarity path, the culture patron, and the customer promise. He draws on his own experiences and shares true stories from businesses like Threadless, Evernote, and Warby Parker. His strategies include these: Build your company around a purpose. People commit to companies and stories that have a simple, straightforward purpose. Understand that culture equals brand. Build your business as a brand that employees and customers will support. Lead by telling great stories. You can’t attract the right people or get them to commit without telling a story about why you do what you do. Treat your staff as your customer. A healthy customer community is the natural result of a healthy internal culture. Serve customers you respect. It’s hard to have an authentic relationship with people you don’t know, like, or trust. As Jantsch says, “Have you ever encountered a business where everything felt effortless? The experience was perfect, and the products, people, and brand worked together gracefully. You made an odd request; it was greeted with a smile. You went to try a new feature; it was right where it should be. You walked in, sat down, and felt right at home.... Businesses that run so smoothly as to seem self-managed aren’t nor ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Jantsch.
