Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this follow-up to The Art of Reading Minds, Henrik Fexeus uses his expert psychology knowledge to teach the reader how to hone their social skills, perfect for fans of Dale Carnegie. Research has increasingly shown that nonverbal communication prowess is absolutely essential in seemingly unrelated areas of our lives (investment decisions, salary levels, etc.) However, as our society becomes more modernized and we incorporate new forms of technology into our daily interactions, we are becoming less and less capable of understanding one another as we should. In The Art of Social Excellence, Henrik Fexeus combines his own expert knowledge as a mentalist with psychology studies to create a complete guide to social interaction. He covers it all: from overcoming your conversational fears in a large group of people, to excelling in the workplace, to winning an argument with your partner. He breaks down various rhetorical strategies in detail, and provides helpful steps and checklists for the reader to check their progress in a social encounter. Anyone who has ever felt awkward or misunderstood in social situations will benefit from reading this book, and with proper implementation of Fexeus's principles, can achieve superior social skills.

Download or read book I eXceL Wired For Success written by DAVID NAIR and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-01-06 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a Self-Help book. Its primary thrust is to create an awareness that Personal Success is only possible when the individual is wired for Success. What do we mean by that? The person needs to be in congruent with the universe. Working hard is not the prime answer to success. It is through internalizing Personal Excellence, (PE) and being in sync with the universe, allowing for the outcomes to be manifested. In this book, we walk the reader through the process of explaining that they need to accept the fact that they will have to change. They will have to raise their standard and that they will be functioning at a Peak State. Its only when this shift happens will transformation and breakthroughs materialize, thereby manifesting their outcomes. This is achieved only when they have a mindset shift. I extend it to include a heart set and soul set shift. To scale their mindset up, we expose them to various rituals and pattern shifts. and definitive habit changes. The above will not happen if this book is treated a leisure reading novel. At the start of the book we make mention this book is like a companion to them for the next 90 days. They are to read it as a Self Help book with work exercise and practices that they go through for Self Mastery. The ultimate intent is to learn how to use this hidden power of their Body, Mind and Soul ( BMS ) properly and unleash the magic within each of them, such that they could reflect on their life to see the journey and be proud of the trail blazer of a life they have left behind. A legacy “Your life of Significance”.
