Use your head to translate these ideas in this book  2008-07-05
The folks that reviewed this book as a "1 star" might have missed the point of this book. In order for these techniques to work, you must use a common sense approach to each situation.
For instance, one of the techinques described in the book deals with finding a common interest in someone you have just met. Unfortunately, if you use the book without using common sense translation it would go something like this:
"Hi! I like the shirt you are wearing. It's got an image of a racing car on it. I like racecars, too! Now that we have racing cars in common, will you help me with my homework?"
Without a common sense approach, this technique fails.
Another technique decribes how to speak to a shy person. If you are shy, would this approach stated below work on you? I would doubt it.
"Hi. You seem shy so I'm going to converse with you so you can overcome your shyness. So, what's up?"
The techniques in this book will require you to use your head, your common sense and your own personality to be effective.
The overall message is the Golden Rule: Treat others the way you, personally, would want to be treated".
Also, this is not an "all or nothing" way of life. If you use a few of these techniques the way you see fitting within your personality, they will work wonders for you.
I've used these techniques and have had considerable success. I believe it was a worthy investment.

Excellent book. Lots of useful information and real life examples of how to apply the principles in the book.
A Second time for me! 2008-06-19
This is the kind of book that is definitely a classic and can learn something new every time you read it. The principles of relationships, showing you how to interact with people and getting that job you want reminds me also of the principles of the law of attraction and my favorite book,Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbook. In this book too you learn about the law of attraction in a workbook format and improve your relationships.

If you have never read this book, pick it up and give it a read. Or buy the CD and listen to it on your next road trip.
