Publisher's summary

Surely you've encountered (or even know) that one particular individual in your life who seems to be able to find something witty to say at the drop of a hat, something that knocks everyone's socks off by generating the perfect response at the perfect moment. They're always cracking unexpected jokes, making people laugh, or bantering witty one-liner comments with their endless repertoire of repartees.

So who is this Mr./Ms. Witty? You're scratching your head, dumbfounded and in awe.... How in the world do they do it? And deep down you secretly want to be like them.

Who doesn't, right? Who wouldn't love to be admired, respected, and worshipped for their charming, clever wit? Yet it's much more than that. By being witty you can always come up with the right things to say at the right times; by expressing yourself clearly, concisely, and convincingly in an instant - with a few short words (no more, no less) - you establish authority, credibility, and trust.

That's the power of having a razor-sharp wit! If the pen is mightier than the sword, then the wit is sharper than the knife. However, let's be honest, being witty doesn't always come naturally, especially for those who are less creative and more logical. The good news is that your wit is like a muscle and, like any muscle, it can be trained and built up.

Within Instant Wit you will learn:

  • How to use a "twister technique" to prepare yourself for what you should say when the moment for a quick comeback occurs.
  • How to strengthen your creative wit in order to banter witty one liners with another person, for good fun or a quick laugh.
  • How to cut down any opponent with your razor-sharp wit, so they won't dare mess with you ever again.

The worst book I've read all year

This book has no basis for any of the claims it makes, many grammatical errors, learned nothing new if anything it'll take you a step back. Look for other books if you're looking to be more witty

Great Tips on How to Be Witty.

What made the experience of listening to Instant Wit: How to Be Witty and Come Up with the Right Things to Say Instantly! the most enjoyable?

The examples from the presentation were engaging.

What did you like best about this story?

I am the type of person who needs examples and to be told specifically when to apply these tips. This audio tape was effective in that.

What does uncredited bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The information sticks better for me because someone is presenting and with an engaging tone. As compared to reading, it can get boring.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I wasn't interested in the book.

Any additional comments?

I was never able to quickly think up some witty sentences right on the spot, but would think of witty sentences after the fact. I have always wanted to be quick when it comes to being witty and this audio tape as exceeded my expectations. When it comes to being witty, it doesn’t mean only being funny. It’s about on how to start interesting conversations to say on the spot, instantly, and not 15 minutes later when the moment has passed. Being witty, people would be able to listen to you more, allowing you to break the ice in conversations and people love being around fun and witty individuals. People who are witty easily get their message across even though others may not agree with them. In some instances, a witty person might be able to change their mind so this is beneficial to politicians and great leaders. This audio tape is one of the few that I have found to fully covers this in a detailed manner. I was able to pick up a lot of helpful tips for becoming more interesting, which the presenter stresses how much it is important to be interesting then being able to make ironic and quick biting remarks. Most of the audiotape contains exercises and examples, making it a useful tool for easy learning of the fundamentals of how to be witty in your conversations. Topics include why certain people are identified as witty, what being witty means, and how to incorporate wit into your daily life in order to take your relationships and conversations to a whole new level. This auto tape was easy to follow and I recommend it for people wanting to improve their witty skills.
