how to be a dog, a fan and grow others ego*
Great summary, lots of good points. Quality stuff. Thank you!
Can you really draw that fast?
Great video! A lot of useful information. Not just for business but everyday interactions and relationships. Thanks.
This sounds like it was written for narcissists.
i'm learning day by day… so I can also share this to my followers.
how to manipulate people to think they like you**
Definitely a lot of principals I could use at work. I know "em all…..but man they fly out the window every time you introduce a little HR heat. This was a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Just a fyi. The Amazon link is affiliated, they probably get a portion of the sale. Doesn't have to mean it's a bad book or that what they say is incorrect though.
You wont get away with "influencing you friends". They will hate you for tricking them.
Good job.
Sounds like people need each other or we all would be dead and depressed
So basically be a Libra. Be obsessed with connecting with others / making friends, avoid confrontation, give a bunch of compliments to butter people up, turn a blind eye to shortcomings/issues if you've decided you want to connect with that person, and kiss a little @ss sometimes. Got it. Anyway, the main takeaway from the book is that majority of people are incredibly selfish. So even if you are kind/helpful nobody will care unless you strike their ego. Someone who never helps them ever will be more loved than someone who saved their life but doesn't kiss their @$$.
this is a lot to remember, thank god I don't want to win friends
Constructive criticism makes champions supposed to men and women just built from water not dirt

AOT defenders will protect the bad writing for the last episode of the show to the death. It is what it is!
I am glad you mentioned it. Even though I liked your video a lot; it didn't come to my mind to subscribe.
Thanks for the video.
I watched many years ago, F.B.I agent on Facebook teaching how to have friends. Just do not be yourself . Agree.
Can someone give some spiel in how to continue or prolong the conversation to better know the person? Thank you, im new and seeking advice on how to improve myself.
White board drawings annoy me
Waste to do it in a video. Can't focus on the book.
7:36 Genuine smiles now and then are good, while smiling all the time for almost no reason can lead to not being taken seriously. A baby doesn't smile all the time either.
If every cop read this book…
Wow amazing all the best ❤
bad
