Book excerpt: The way you listen creates your world. In Listen...Till You Disappear, author Dr. Martin Kettelhut shows that by listening better you will hear what your highest aspirations really are and discover the best way to attain them. Most of us are working much harder than we need to get what we want. This book guides you through the noise of life so you can hear what's ultimately important, it brings you home to your primordial vision of life, reveals the structural dissonances blocking your progress, and teaches you how to live well. Stopping to listen will give you the power to accomplish what you want, procure the things you desire, and lead a purposeful life. Listen...Till You Disappear shows how learning to refine and deepen your listening-to yourself, others, and the world around you-will free your mind, focus your power, and bring profound fulfillment.
