Today we are going to talk about a video, a TED Talk called The power of passion and perseverance, by professor and author Angela Lee Duckworth. And in this talk, she talks about a characteristic, a very important, a vital characteristic that successful people have.

It’s not how smart you are, it’s not how good you look, it’s something else and I’m going to talk about that in this TED Talk today.

We can't let our feelings of failure stop us and keep us from improving, grit

Today's episode I think will help you become much more fluent in life. One of my favorite books, at least one of my top ten books that I've read in my, not so short life, but not so long life either.

I'm going to talk about a book today called "The 4 Agreements". This book was written by the author Donna Miguel Ruiz, who is Mexican, and it was published in 1997. This book is about our self-limiting beliefs. Beliefs that rob us of joy and also that create a lot of suffering, a lot of needless suffering.

So I'm going to give you an introduction to this book and talk about each agreement, and share with you what I think are the most important ideas and the ones that can help you get the most benefit from this book in a short fifteen-minute podcast episode.

As I go along I will also explain some of the English that I use that you might not know.

I’m going to talk about some fascinating concepts from a book and we're going to go more into the evolution of human sexual behavior in an attempt to understand why we deal with sex the way that we do.

Some questions that will be answered are things like are we naturally monogamous? Monogamy, monogamous, is an important word in this episode. Monogamous means having one partner only. The book answers the question, are monogamous relationships natural, the way they should be, or are they impossible to keep based on our instincts?

Also going to talk about how casual sex was crucial to our ancestors’ survival, casual sex meaning not committed relationships.

And lastly, I will also talk about how agriculture ruined our health and happiness.
