Title : Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion
Author : Robert Cialdini
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Priceless

I have been entertaining my friends at dinner parties with this book. Cialdini, who admits to being a bit of a sucker himself, shows all the ways we've been manipulated over the years by small gestures and situations contrived by salesmen.

There are so many good stories. The one about Joe Girard, a car salesman who sends out each month 13,000 cards every month to former customers with a card saying, "I like you". Surely people wouldn't fall for that? Yes they do, he made more than $200,000 a year selling cars. He's in the Guinness Book of Records.

There's the story of how the Chinese got the American prisoners in the Korean War to betray their country by setting them essay questions. There's accounts of the trouble we can get into when we insist on being consistent or make a vague commitment to supporting a cause.

Cialdini exposes loads of sales techniques and has some fascinating insights into what motivates us.

As a self-employed person I'm really grateful for this knowledge. This is a book that everyone should read.

Title : Getting It Done: How to Lead When You're Not in Charge
Author : Roger Fisher
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Stirring and self-developing book

I read and read this book as an IT professional and really learnt about most of the problems I've been encountering. I hence moved from complaint to contributive proposition and got self-confident in any further action taken since. Moreover, most of the examples produced are common to major enterprises. I am convinced things could be better in some enterprises, had the management read this sort of best-practice-minded book. I have started disseminating the book around me and hope it'll help go ahead solving problems and sharing knowledge. It's clear problems mostly arise due to a lack of managerial culture.

Title : Making Your Thoughts Work for You
Author : Wayne W. Dyer
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Uplifting and life changing stuff!

I completly recommend this four cd set to anyone and everyone!

I have had phobias and depression for years which have completly ruled my life and have read many self help books and seen many therapists, but listening to this CD set once has completly changed my mindset and outlook on life! Through Dr.Wayne's inspiriational and spiritual talking and Byron Katie's NLP and questioning your thoughts work, I really feel a new beginning in my life has begun! I was left feeling uplifted,calm and confident and I feel now that I can begin to get my life back on track and am very exited about doing so!

The CDs' are recordings of a live seminar where Dr. Wayne is giving a very inspirational talk on balance and living your true life path to thousands of people live, and then later on Byron Katie takes over and gets the audience to fill in some worksheets and gets three stressed and upset people up from the audience, works with them and shows how to realise the problem situation, deal with it and embrace it by realsing the part you are playing in it and then how to change your view of it and how you deal with it. They all left happy, uplifted and relaxed!
Then Dr. Wayne talks some more and they both take questions from the audience.

I thouroughly recommend this to anyone, stressed, anxious, depressed or just wanting to attain some new wisdom.

If you open your mind to it,it can be life changing stuff! :-)

Title : It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be
Author : Paul Arden
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Motivational?

This book by Paul Arden has been dubbed by many to be a fantastic motivational book that is capable of turning people into super human geniuses. In reality this book takes only an hour or less to read through and unless you really attempt to apply any new ideas will be a waste of your time.

Much of the book to me was useless and some of it I already knew, however it is still a good book for getting you thinking in another way. Really the author is telling you to throw out everything you think you know and listen to his ideas of what made him successful, and some of the ideas are very good.

I have found a few of the ideas in this book very useful and have used the ideas such as 'Do not seek praise seek criticism' are simple but good. Many people are unable to open up and be wrong and make mistakes and learn from them, especially people in positions such as management who feel they have to be seen as always correct in front of their staff.

This book really is an individual thing, It may be of massive help to you or you may completely disagree with the ideas put forward. Either way you have to look at this book as one mans ideas and decide for yourself whether to apply them or take them onboard in your life. Worth a look at the price being asked for it.
