Publisher's summary

It’s not about what you know but who you know.... So, do you know the right people? Are your social skills where you want them to be?

Do you show up just before the meeting starts and purposefully grab a chair in the back of the room where nobody can see you or force you into the center stage?

Have you kept your mouth shut even when you had a good idea simply because you didn’t want to have to deal with talking over everybody?

If you’ve answered "Yes" to the above questions, then chances are you could afford to do some work on addressing your social skills. As a matter of fact, social anxiety disorder is perhaps the most common mental illness in the world, affecting approximately 17 million people in just the United States.

And this illness can affect a lot more than just choosing to keep quiet at work.

Maybe you’ve been struggling in your dating life because you constantly feel awkward? Or maybe you repeatedly go to parties and gatherings you don't actually want to be at because you feel out of place the whole time anyway?

It doesn't have to be this way!

Your social skills are something you can focus upon and train, making yourself a more and more sociable and engaging person with each day that passes.

With the right tools and techniques, paired with a bit of enhanced personal awareness, you could be rocking every conversation and social gathering that life throws your way in no time flat.

In Social Skills, you’ll discover:

  • The number one thing that inhibits our social capacity and how you can never do it again
  • Why embracing the introvert within is actually a good idea
  • The top five things not to do when first breaking free of your shyness
  • How you can train your emotional intelligence in less than five minutes a day
  • Why your vulnerability is a superpower and how to use it your advantage
  • A scientifically proven method to win any conversation
  • How your social circle determines your success and what you can do about it
  • And so much more

"This book successfully breaks down a complex subject to very easy-to-follow steps, making socializing with confidence accessible to everyone!" (Raymond Clarence, author and speaker)

Putting yourself out there and expressing your truth is not going to kill you.

You don't have to play by other people’s rules, but you do have to take ownership of your own abilities. You can create an environment for yourself where you always feel comfortable and surrounded by support.

When you do, you’ll find that being social isn’t actually difficult at all. You’ll find that just being yourself is in fact the most enjoyable thing in the world and that communication and connection with other human beings is something you actually rather enjoy.

If you’re ready to leave all the social uncertainty and shyness behind for good, then scroll up and click the “Buy Now” button right now.

Interesting

Actually a very fascinating book. I thought I knew quite a lot about this subject but I ended up learning a lot. I am grateful for all the sections about confidence, knowing what to say in social situations, body language and more. Would definitely check out more books from this author.

Charisma stuff was best

Nathan did a good job narrating this book. Narration is so important for audiobooks, I am not sure why so many of them are bad. Thankfully he was a good one and made the book come alive and easy to follow.

Social skills bible

In my humble, non-expert, opinion, this is the social / communication skills bible. I can see why so many people have been talking about it lately. Full marks from me.

Best book around

Thankful to a friend who told me to get this book. I could not put it down, I did not want to stop listening. It was pretty nonstop with info so I would recommend listening to it twice to take it all in.
