The Unsold Mindset: Redefining What It Means to Sell (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B2KFVQHS | 2023 | 7 hours and 13 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 206 MB
Author: Colin Coggins, Garrett Brown
Narrator: Colin Coggins, Garrett Brown

What if the greatest salespeople on the planet are the opposite of who you think they are? Everyone sells, every day. It's why the most successful people are better than most at selling themselves, their ideas, or their products and services. Yet when people hear the word sales they think of an overly confident, articulate extrovert (at best) or a pushy, know-it-all huckster (at worst). Because of these misperceptions, when we find ourselves in a situation where we need to sell, we feel compelled to put on the persona of a "good salesperson." But there's a disconnect between who we think good salespeople are and who they actually are. In any room, they're not the most self-confident, they're the most self-aware. They're not the most sociable, they're the most socially aware. And they don't succeed in spite of obstacles, they succeed because of obstacles.

The Silk Road A New History [Audiobook] (Repost)
The Silk Road: A New History (Audiobook)
English | July 31, 2018 | ASIN: B07FNWSSSY | M4B@64 kbps | 9h 54m | 275 MB
Author: Valerie Hansen | Narrator: Jo Anna Perrin
The Silk Road is as iconic in world history as the Colossus of Rhodes or the Suez Canal. But what was it, exactly? It conjures up a hazy image of a caravan of camels laden with silk on a dusty desert track reaching from China to Rome. The reality was different - and far more interesting - as revealed in this new history.
In The Silk Road, Valerie Hansen describes the remarkable archaeological finds that revolutionize our understanding of these trade routes. For centuries, key records remained hidden - sometimes deliberately buried by bureaucrats for safe keeping. But the sands of the Taklamakan Desert have revealed fascinating material, sometimes preserved by illiterate locals who recycled official documents to make insoles for shoes or garments for the dead.

The Problem of Democracy: America, the Middle East, and the Rise and Fall of an Idea (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BVP8DLJS | 2023 | 12 hours and 22 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 314 MB
Author: Shadi Hamid
Narrator: Amin El Gamin

What happens when democracy produces "bad" outcomes? Is democracy good because of its outcomes or despite them? This "democratic dilemma" is one of the most persistent, vexing problems for America abroad, particularly in the Middle East-we want democracy in theory but not necessarily in practice. When Islamist parties rise to power through free elections, the United States has too often been ambivalent or opposed, preferring instead pliable dictators. With this legacy of democratic disrespect in mind, and drawing on new interviews with top American officials, Shadi Hamid explores universal questions of morality, power, and hypocrisy.
