The title of the book is my way of filtering the winners from the distracted. Failure is the real F word that gets ignored as profanity. Saying the word without a genuine way to overcome it should be offensive, right along with FEAR. Listening to the following 12 chapters is one more chance for you to capture and gain the necessary traction you need to build momentum. In an ever-changing and unforgiving platform of enslaved worker bees. Drones self-piloted by the illusions of economic self-satisfaction controlled by hourly wages.

I intend for this audiobook to serve as a handbook for tracking and documenting your progress. The end of this audiobook will become the beginning of your progression to success. You will find parts of this audiobook to have somewhat of a vulgar swag to it because success and failure can be dirty, nasty, freaky things. They can be deceiving, trifling, manipulating, hence the crude tone. But the journey you will encounter in this audiobook will open your mind to understanding what success is truly made of and what it will take to win.
