Performance. It’s a word that many of us take for granted. Although the word may seem simple, when we add the words negative, positive, low, or high, it becomes something that can have a major impact on our future.

Why then does our own performance take a back seat to the daily grind of career and life? Why is it that all of us do not perform at our highest potential possible? The answer is basic in delivery but complex in execution—we simply do not know how or where to start.

Welcome to the 9th Stratum: Your guide to high performance.

The 9th Stratum concept was developed over two decades through the study, testing, and application of techniques and practices observed in low to high performers and validated with real world results. This revealed the specific performance-based skills, behaviors, routines, and habits that are practiced daily by high-performers from all industries. Understanding and applying these skills is critical for those who have yet to establish consistent goal achievement—and the success that follows.

In The 9th Stratum, Aaron Salko provides the backed-by-science knowledge of how high performers operate, as well as tactical applications that you can begin to use immediately in both your career and life. What is written on these pages within will not only make you better, it will also change the way you think and act. The choice is yours: embrace the knowledge and transcend your limitations, or simply skim the surface and remain on your current path. But know this—whether you fully commit or merely scan the pages, this audiobook will leave a lasting mark on your journey, forever elevating your performance to higher stratums.
