No longer shy

For the majority of my life I have been very shy in social situations. Never knowing what to say.
This has all changed thanks to this book.

Helped me so much, particularly with women

This book has helped me a lot especially when it comes to chatting with women, something I have always struggled with. A great book for confidence in general in social situations.

Helpful.

I found it helpful anyway but I can only speak from personal experience, it may not work for everyone. Second half was better tho, more advice, easier to understand I thought.

One of my faves.

Been shy for most of my life, hate hate hate social situations. Gone thru this book a few times and already feel ten times more capable.

Narrator was a tiny bit annoying at times but apart from that the book is exceptional.

Complete Game Changer

This book is a complete eye opener when it comes to how much our confidence and ability to engage in face to face conversation is regressing. It's definitely a book for anyone with an introverted personality that struggles with face to face interaction. It gives you the vital skills that are often neglected when it comes to successful everyday human interaction.
The guidelines offer invaluable wisdom that help you to show to remain present in the moments rather than looking awkward and rude. After listening to this book, I have definitely noticed that my confidence has increased in everyday interactions after learning how my social awkwardness translates to looking plain rude!
What I liked in particular about this audiobook was the fact that it was written by someone that previously suffered with social shyness. I will definitely revisit this book frequently!

Feeling more confident

Feeling more confident now, using the strategies from the second half of the book. The first half was good too but I felt it was the second half that really came alive with actual advice on how to handle social situations as a shy person.
