Mastering one specific skill set might have been the key to success 20 years ago . . . but being the best at a single thing just doesn't cut it in today's global economy.

Think about those people who somehow manage to be amazing at everything they do—the multimillionaire CEO with the bodybuilder physique or the rock star with legions of adoring fans. How do they manage to be so great at life? By acquiring and applying multiple skills to make themselves more valuable to others, they've become generalists, able to "stack" their varied skills for a unique competitive edge.

In How to Be Better at Almost Everything, bestselling author, fitness expert, entrepreneur, and professional business coach Pat Flynn shares the secrets to learning (almost) every skill, from marketing and music to relationships and martial arts, teaching how to combine interests to achieve greatness in any field.

Discover how to:

   • Learn any skill with only an hour of practice a day through repetition and resistance
   • Package all your passions into a single tool kit for success with skill stacking
   • Turn those passions into paychecks by transforming yourself into a person of interest


To really get ahead in today's fast-paced, constantly evolving world, you need a diverse portfolio of hidden talents you can pull from your back pocket at a moment's notice. The good news? You don't need to be a genius or a prodigy to get there—you just have to be willing to learn. How to Be Better at Almost Everything will teach you how to make your personal and professional goals a reality, starting today.

Business expert Pat Flynn lays out the benefits of being a "generalist," or someone highly skilled in many trades, which is a better path to success than striving to be the best at a single skill.

"What Pat presents in this book represents a paradigm shift in the way we all should be approaching our businesses and lives. It's not about killing yourself trying to be the best. It's about putting the puzzle pieces together, getting better at what you need to get better at, and offering something valuable and unique to the marketplace. This book is the ultimate handbook on how to do just that."

—Som Sikdar, CEO of Dragon Gym Martial Arts and Fitness
