About this listen

How to enrich your life and destroy doubt in five seconds.

Throughout your life, you've had parents, coaches, teachers, friends, and mentors who have pushed you to be better than your excuses and bigger than your fears. What if the secret to having the confidence and courage to enrich your life and work is simply knowing how to push yourself?

Using the science of habits, riveting stories, and surprising facts from some of the most famous moments in history, art, and business, Mel Robbins will explain the power of a "push moment". Then, she'll give you one simple tool you can use to become your greatest self.

It takes just five seconds to use this tool, and every time you do you'll be in great company. More than eight million people have watched Mel's TEDx Talk, and executives inside of the world's largest brands are using the tool to increase productivity, collaboration, and engagement.

In The 5 Second Rule, you'll discover it takes just five seconds to:

  • Become confident
  • Break the habit of procrastination and self-doubt
  • Beat fear and uncertainty
  • Stop worrying and feel happier
  • Share your ideas with courage

The 5 Second Rule is a simple, one-size-fits-all solution for the one problem we all face - we hold ourselves back.

The secret isn't knowing what to do - it's knowing how to make yourself do it.

I cried, I laughed, I answered questions out loud as Mel asked them. Amazing book highlighting the power in the simplicity of 'the five second rule'. Thank you Mel for writing this down for others to benefit.

Mel has a genuine and gentle reading voice. Her tone is easy to listen to piquing interest at points but not over doing it.

I feel a renewed sense of possibility for my life knowing that something great is only five seconds away from starting.

An author to whom i can relate to

Mel Robbins narrating made it so much easier for me to relate to. I love this audible and i will no doubt listen to it several more times. The 5 second rule is a very simple concept Mel explains throughout the book how it can be applied to all aspects of life and how being confident is a skill that can be learnt using the rule

Another Mel Robbins gem!

I listened to take control of your life before this one and I found that amazing so of course I had to listen to this one next. Mel Robbins is just so inspiring and relatable. I absolutely loved listening to the 5 second rule, its inspired me and I've been using the rule whenever i can and wherever i feel its needed. the rule makes so much sense because we all overthink. I'm so happy i discovered Mel and i cant wait to listen to the next book

exceptional, moving, magnificent book

my good friend recommended this book as I am going through a lot of changes in my life right now. I was freaking out , getting overwhelmed with so many things to deal with at the same time. This life changing book has given me a simple tool to get started and make some adjustments in my morning routine and remind me that I can have control of what I want, I can have a passion that energises me every single day of my life as long as I dont allow my negative thoughts to take over me. 54321 if i can read this book when everything seems undoubtedly scary and uncertain you can do it as well. thanks Mel for sharing your deepest feelings and struggles of your life.
