Successful entrepreneurs know that getting to the top of the business world requires learning as much as possible to fuel creativity, innovation, or the strategies that make a business transform industries. However, successful entrepreneurs also know that there is NO time to do it. Especially when it is starting.

But Latin American businessmen and women have a strange negative resource they can use to their advantage: the time we spend trapped in bloody traffic. According to the recent study by the analysis company INRIX , Mexicans spend about 2018 hours a year stuck in the traffic of the streets of a city like the capital. You can’t stop the car to watch a Ted Talk on YouTube or check out your favorite book, but do you know what you can do? Play an audiobook.

Audiobooks are a wonderful tool that you can take advantage of while traveling on the subway, at the gym, or just when you want to relax. Currently there are several pages that offer audiobooks in Spanish such as Beek, Storytel and Audible from Amazon that you can listen to in free trials.

These are some of my favorites:

**1. The Steve Jobs book , by Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli**

**4. Image, Attitude and Power , by Lucy Lara**

**6. Leonardo da Vinci , by Walter Isaacson**

What it’s about: This book by one of the best biographers of our time (responsible for the popular works on the lives of Steve Jobs and Einstein), paints an excellent picture of what was possibly the most creative and fascinating genius of the history.
Why you should listen to it: Is there a more intriguing and wonderful mind than that of a certain Leonardo from an Italian town called Vinci? This excellent work helps us understand who was the painter, inventor and mathematician of the Renaissance.
