Acerca de esta escucha
On October 10, 1988, Charles Fleisher was the passenger in the 300ZX, driving over 100 miles an hour being chased by a New Jersey State Trooper. It ended abruptly when he was thrown from the vehicle over 100 feet, breaking his neck and receiving a permanent spinal cord injury. In the Secret of Difficulties, Mr. Fleisher shares what he's learned about taking challenging situations and turning them into opportunities. He shares remarkable stories of individuals from different walks of life that found opportunities they wouldn't have had if they had not decided to overcome their challenges.
Throughout history individuals, companies and groups have been spurred by difficulties. Sir Winston Churchill once commented that, "a pessimist sees the difficulties in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." Individuals profiled in this book include the actor Michael J. Fox. He turned his diagnosis of Parkinson's disease into an opportunity to raise over $200 million for Parkinson's research. George Foreman, the heavyweight champion of the world who was knocked out, was motivated to start a youth center to serve thousands in his community.
The book outlines a four-step process that each remarkable individual used. The awareness Mr. Fleisher has received from living with paralysis has led him to believe that anyone can potentially use difficulties. They can begin by first clearly identifying one or more difficulties, imagining a solution to the challenge, making a plan, and taking consistent action. This book will provide an outline for anyone to get started.

The ups and downs of the economy prove Rabbi Daniel Lapin's famous principle that the more things change, the more we need to depend upon the things that never change.

Can you really create your own reality? Real estate artist, best-selling author, philanthro-capitalist, and modern-day Renaissance man Frank McKinney has done just that. During his journey, Frank discovered an eternal truth: To create your own reality, you don't change who you are. You just have to redirect or reignite what's already inside. For that, you need aspiration — an almost otherworldly desire to achieve something high or great.

If everyone wants to live a happy and successful life, why do so few achieve it? This simple question launched a multi-year, multi-million dollar research project searching for the commonalities of happy and successful people. After thousands of hours of research, 400 interviews, and the deconstruction of over 100 books, the results are astounding. So what do happy and successful people have in common? Well, it's not whether they grew up in a loving home or a broken home, or whether they were rich or poor....

We live in an era of low expectations. In fact, we tend to celebrate low expectations. The way in which we choose to live and work today is a far cry from the purposeful living of our parents. Have we reached the point in our society where it is more important to look good rather than be good? This book reacquaints listeners with the wisdom - the common sense that was practiced simply and unwittingly by those who represent a generation gone by: a generation that worked hard without complaining; a generation that did whatever was necessary to support their families....
