Paperback. What if the patience everyone mistook for weakness was actually the sharpest weapon you owned? You have watched louder people win the room while you said nothing. You have wondered if staying calm when everything in you wanted to fight back made you strong or made you a coward. You have waited, and waited, and wondered if waiting was ever going to be enough. Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan was ten years old when his family lost everything that mattered to the losing side of history. He grew up in the shadow of a war his own father had fought and lost, converted to the very faith that had defeated his family, and spent the rest of his life proving that the people who out-wait their rivals outlast the people who merely out-fight them. By the time he died, he had turned two civil wars, a murdered caliph, and a rival with a stronger bloodline claim into nineteen years as founder of an empire that stretched from the Atlantic coast to the mountains beyond Khorasan - not through force, but through a single, deliberate discipline he called the thread: loosen when pulled, pull when loosened, and never let it break. Recognize that the restraint you've been ashamed of might be the very thing that lets you outlast what fury alone cannot survive Understand how a man with the weaker claim built the stronger legacy, one patient decision at a time See how holding your tongue, your temper, and your timing can be a far sharper weapon than any sword Learn what it actually costs a person to hold something together that keeps threatening to fall apart Discover why the empires - and the relationships - that survive are built by people who know when to loosen their grip This is a book for anyone who has ever been told they were too patient, too quiet, too willing to wait when everyone around them wanted a fight. The thread does not hold because it never bends. It holds because it always does. Open the first page. The thread is still waiting for you to pick it up. This item is printed on demand.

You have watched louder people win the room while you said nothing. You have wondered if staying calm when everything in you wanted to fight back made you strong or made you a coward. You have waited, and waited, and wondered if waiting was ever going to be enough.
Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan was ten years old when his family lost everything that mattered to the losing side of history. He grew up in the shadow of a war his own father had fought and lost, converted to the very faith that had defeated his family, and spent the rest of his life proving that the people who out-wait their rivals outlast the people who merely out-fight them. By the time he died, he had turned two civil wars, a murdered caliph, and a rival with a stronger bloodline claim into nineteen years as founder of an empire that stretched from the Atlantic coast to the mountains beyond Khorasan — not through force, but through a single, deliberate discipline he called the thread: loosen when pulled, pull when loosened, and never let it break.
Recognize that the restraint you've been ashamed of might be the very thing that lets you outlast what fury alone cannot survive
Understand how a man with the weaker claim built the stronger legacy, one patient decision at a time

Learn what it actually costs a person to hold something together that keeps threatening to fall apart
Discover why the empires — and the relationships — that survive are built by people who know when to loosen their grip
This is a book for anyone who has ever been told they were too patient, too quiet, too willing to wait when everyone around them wanted a fight.

Derecho al desistimiento
Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.
Excepciones al derecho de desistimiento
El derecho de desistimiento no se aplica a lo siguiente:
- La entrega de periódicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepción de los contratos de suscripción; y
- El suministro de contenido digital que no se proporcione en un soporte tangible (por ejemplo, en un CD o DVD) si, al hacer el pedido, aceptó que podíamos empezar a entregarlo y que no podría desistir una vez iniciada la entrega.
