About this listen

Discover the Japanese secret to unlocking your purpose, productivity, and passion in life!

  • Are you struggling to find your "true calling," feeling adrift without a clear sense of direction?
  • Does procrastination or a lack of motivation prevent you from accomplishing your goals?
  • Has your growth been stunted by self-doubt or a fear of failure?

Indeed, failure is the unfortunate result of most endeavors. Eighty percent of New Year's Resolutions fail by February. For many people, surrender feels like the easiest option.

But what if I told you that the Japanese have found a solution to your goal-achievement problems?

In this audiobook, we'll reveal three concepts from the east:

  • Ikigai - A strategy to discover one's purpose, meaning, and "true calling" in life.
  • Hansei - The ancient art of honest self-reflection.
  • Kaizen - An incrementalist approach to goal achievement developed by Japanese engineers and scientists.

When combined together, each methodology can improve your productivity by a factor of TEN!

You will learn:

  • What it takes to discover your personal ikigai (your "true calling" in life), so that every step you take is in harmony with your deepest passions.
  • The secret principle that makes the chore of "habit-forming" easy.
  • How to REALLY focus on your work goals, enhancing your ability to tune out the many distractions of life.
  • How to achieve the coveted "flow state"—the mental plateau of peak performance where creativity thrives.
  • And much more.

It doesn't matter if you're a student, a busy mom, or an entrepreneur. All of these techniques will apply!

Then get the audiobook now, and discover this hidden gem of knowledge that will enable you to turn your dreams into reality.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good book

I live this book. Four different words that you probably know the translation for but didn’t realise how it applies to your life. This was so easy to read and so thought provoking. I thoroughly recommend this book.

An inspiring read

I really feel this book was what I needed to make sense of this thing called life. No spoilers but some of the references to films, stories, social media and historical information made such clear descriptions that I could connect.

I wouldn't want to say it's simple, as I would not wish to state its obvious but it is so clearly depicted that all the suggestions, ideas and themes are achievable, one day or step at a time!

Thank you.

Spoke to me!
