strongly. You can go to the gym. Do something with your body while you are listening to the lessons.
As I said, it will keep your energy high. It will keep you feeling better. You will actually learn faster by doing that.
And finally, a very, very important point. You need to use our deep learning method. That means you listen to each lesson set for one week or more. So for example, in the first Unit called “A Higher Purpose” there are three parts. There is a main lecture, a main talk or a story. There is a vocabulary section. And there is a mini-story. Well, those three, you want to listen to those three every day for seven days. You want that repetition.
Repetition is very important. You want it to go deeply into your brain. Just one time is not enough. Even if it is very easy for you, even if you listen you understand everything, it’s simple, still follow the deep learning method. Still listen to the whole set for one week or more. On the other hand, if it seems very difficult, listen longer. Two weeks is okay.
Doesn’t matter, the point is you want it to go very deeply into your brain which means you want it to be almost effortless. It’s going to just go into your brain and eventually just come out without you thinking and that requires deep learning. It requires a lot of repetition.
So that’s kind of your basic plan for using these lessons. Again, first you’re going to get into a peak state. You are going to get excited. You’re going to jump around. You’re going to listen to music. You’re going to feel great. Then you’re going to listen to the main lecture, the main audio, one or two times. Then you’re going to listen to the vocabulary, one or two times. Then you’re going to listen to the mini-story, one, two, three, four, five times… every day. And remember: relax, feel good and enjoy the lessons while you listen.
Okay, now you know what to do to learn business English faster and to speak business English more confidently. Next is the introduction. See you there.
Introduction

I’ve got the great news for you. We are going to do some business English. We are going to do “The Secrets of Success” Business English Course.
What you learn in this course:
Let me tell what you’ll learn in this real, authentic, true Business English Course.

The ideas I am going to use in this course are not my ideas. They belong to different people like: Tony Robbins, Simon Sinek, James Carse, Jim Rohn, Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffett, Robert Kiyosaki, Maya Angelou, Alan Watts, Jordan B. Peterson and many others. They were or are all well-known, famous and outstanding business people, writers, scientists and public speakers.
I am implementing their information; I am focusing on their ideas so that you can have a general picture of a real business. So that you can have a better understanding of how to build businesses and how to lead people, and of course, how to maintain your businesses, organizations or any company, in fact.
We are also going to focus on human nature of people. That is, unfortunately, are not taught in business schools a lot.
So let’s get down to business.
Speaking about business we have to start with what we think about business. How we view business and what game we are playing in business. The reason why we are going to focus on this first, because many business organizations and many leaders they don’t know and therefore they don’t understand what game they are playing in, running their businesses.
According to James Carse there are two types of games in business: finite and infinite. Finite means limited and infinite means unlimited.
Let’s talk about finite game first.
Finite game is the game where players are known, rules are fixed and the object is agreed upon.
For example: A football. We all know the players. We all know the rules, they cannot be changed. And we all know the object of the game is to beat the competitor. In other words, the players are playing to win the game.
Now let’s talk about infinite game. In infinite game there are known and unknown players. The rules are changeable and the object is to perpetuate the game. In other words, the players are playing to continue to play. There cannot be a winner and there cannot be a loser.
If two finite-minded players are competing against each other, the system is stable.
If two infinite-minded payers are playing against each other, the system is also stable.
The problem arises when a finite-minded player starts playing versus an infinite-minded player.
Because one is playing to beat the competitor, the other is playing to play.
Take for example, the war in Vietnam. The Americans were trying to beat the Vietnamese people. The Vietnamese people were fighting to survive.
If you are in business, you realize that the game of business is an infinite game. Business is an infinite game because players come and leave, but the game continues with them or without them.
The companies that are playing the infinite game will frustrate their competitors. The goal is not to beat your competitor. The goal is to outlast your competitor.
Of course, we want to create and develop the mindset of an infinite player. The infinite players don’t actually compete against their competitors, they compete against themselves. Every single day they try to become better versions of themselves than they were yesterday.
There are five things that have to happen to really become a leader for infinite game.
1. You have to have a higher purpose.
2. You have to have a trusting team.
3. You have to have worthy rivals.
4. You have to have the capacity for existential flexibility.
5. You have to have the courage to lead.
This is the end of the course introduction. You know what to do, right? Listen to this introduction a few times a day. Follow your basic plan and use your body to help you understand the material better and remember it faster and longer. Next is the first unit which is called “A Higher Purpose”. See you there.
